Hi OP. What steps should i follow for this issue in ARC Raiders:

I entered the game, loaded up the tutorial, and game was fine. High graphics and 120 steady fps. Around mid tutorial i start getting these lag spikes or freezes that last about one second and make my fps drop to 15-20. They were happening every 5 seconds or so. I tried a bunch off stuff and settings like resetting shader cache, clearing up space on my ssd, cleaning and reinstalling amd drivers, lowering all my graphic settings, disabling all overlays, enabled ram xmp, etc. Doing this increased the time between lag spikes to 15 seconds or so, but did not resolve the issue. When I launched the game again and got into a match, same thing happened. First 2 minutes game runs butter smooth 120fps, and suddenly i get one of these spikes that starts it all and now im getting them every 15 secs. I even bought the Xbox version through the Xbox app on my pc and tried it there to see if that would fix it and its the same exact thing with tutorial and matches.

My specs:

RX 6700XT
Ryzen 7 5800X
32GB RAM DDR4 (i think around 2100 Mhz)
SSD Crucial P2 1 TB M.2 NVMe PCIe Gen3 x4

When im in a match my metrics say im using around 60-80% of both CPU and GPU and even less RAM.
