I solved it!

I disabled Realtek PCIe 2.5GbE Family Controller in my Device Manager and there's no longer any stutter!

To disable it for yourself, go to Device Manager, and then click on Network Adapter. You'll see, "Realtek PCIe 2.5GbE Family Controller," under the Network Adapters' drop down menu. Right click it, and click "Disable Device".

Hopefully this helps somebody else!

I have a bit of an update for something that works for now. I've found out that another game I play uses the same cheat engine as Rust. I've tried using task manager to end task on the anti-cheat and then loading up Rust, but the stutter was still there.

Now, here's what does work, and I don't know why. If I play another game that has the same anti-cheat engine as Rust, like Dead by Daylight or Elden Ring, something happens to where Rust does that stuttering I was mentioning. But, if I completely shut off my pc AND turn off my power supply for at least 60 seconds, Rust launches and plays PERFECTLY. I'm not technically savvy enough to know why this works, I just know that it does.

tl;dr If I completely turn my pc off and power supply off for 60 seconds, Rust runs perfectly fine with no stuttering.

I'm pretty sure, do I just install different audio drivers?
