Windows 10: Windows 11 24h2 broken update; stutters while gaming

I have a 2021 Zephyrus g14 and updated to windows 11 24h2 on 3/11/2025. I had stuttering when I was playing warframe. The game was windowed and for the first 5 minutes it would play with no stutters. Then there would be constant stutters and the overall performance of the game dropped too. I also play fullscreen games which didn't have any stutter issues but it does have drops in performance albeit lower than the drops in the windowed game. I gave up on waiting for an update to fix it and was reinstalling windows 11 24h2 from settings when it gave me an error while I was at 34% installing and

Games stuttering after upgrading to Windows 11

I have since I have upgraded to windows 11 I have been seeing stutters in my games and large FPS drops. Games run fine for first few minutes and start stuttering only to get normal again for a some time. I know the issue is not in the graphics settings or hardware as everything was running smooth in Windows 10. Even GTA IV has started to stutter. Here's what I have tried:

• Looking at task manager while gaming to see if any of my GPU/CPU/RAM are reaching their max when stuttering starts in Red Dead Online. Found no behaviour out of the ordinary, RAM was always at 80% capacity with discord and the game open. I don't know if that's the issue.
  
• Turning off GameDVR settings from System Registry.
  
• Uninstalling drivers and reinstalling newer ones from the custom installation option in Nvidia GeForce Experience.
  
• Turning off Memory Integrity.
  
• Toning down in game video settings.
  
• Installing vulkan renderer for GTA IV.
  
• Turning off Real Time security.
  
• Turning off Game mode.
  
• Turning on high performance mode in control panel and from the manual keys in my Lenovo Legion Laptop.
  
• Cleaning the air vents and putting it on an elevation supported by a few poker chips on each corner for better airflow.
  
• Turning off every third party process from Task Manager that I could before playing games.
  
• Updating Windows 11, eventually updating to 23H2 but the problem still persists.
  

My PC specs (Lenovo Legion 5 Gaming Laptop):

• 16 Gb RAM
  
• 4 Gb Nvidia GTX 1650 Ti Graphics card
  
• 4 core Intel i5 processor ( I don't know what gen)
  

There was no performance issues in my games in Windows 10. I have missed the 10 day mark of reverting back to Windows 10, I don't want the hassle of reinstalling it. I have seen others on Windows 11 having good gaming performance so I think Windows 11 could still be fixable for me. Thank you for reading and attention any reply and suggestion would be appreciated.
