Stuttering gameplay after a while playing

Hi!

I have an issue where after playing the game for an hour or two, I encounter loads of stuttering and freezing of the game for fractions of a second at a time.

I have encountered this in the past too so I reinstalled Windows onto my PC completely and reinstalled WoW on my SSD. For a period of time WoW ran perfectly and I never had any of the aformentioned issues.

Interestingly, if I turn my PC off for 10s and relaunch the game, the issue doesn’t seem to occur.

I have included two videos which showcase before and after turning off my PC and starting WoW.

I have tried and tested to see if it is an addon causing these issues but I am 95% confident that isn’t the case.

The specs of my PC are as follows:

Intel Core I7-8700 3.2GHz
8gb Ram
Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti
128gb BC501 NVMe SK hynix SSD
1tb ST1000DM010-2EP102 HDD
