For a little over a month now, when playing videos on firefox, VLC, or any other application, I get infrequent stutters. This is with or without hardware accelleration. It’s as if the video pauses briefly. If multiple videos are playing, even across different applications, each of them will be effected at the same time.

I believe the only power tuning I had was cpupower. I just stopped it and will give it some time. Do you know a tool that’ll graph out my memory frequency? My memory seems pretty stable at 4800 MHz but I’ll watch it with “watch lshw -short -C memory”
Issue still occured. Didn’t see my memory fluctuating either
