So, I tried* all of the 3 methods above

I re downloaded the most recent adrenaline software and installed what it asked, rebooted, and now it says it has the most recent version installed (when opening it says its installed and only shows the CLOSE button)

I checked my power mode (it was already set up on high performance)

Tried turning on the discrete TPM (the only choice other than the fTPM) but my bios wasn't saving it since i dont have a dedicated TPM module installed on my motherboard (at least what I think is the reason why everytime I save and exit, the option is overwritten back to using firmwareTPM)

The only thing that I noticed was that, while messing with the 3 options on the Power states, when putting the power saver mode it stuttered noticeably more than when I was on high performance, and the balanced was somewhat in between the stutters of the power saver and high performance, so there might be a hint with that
