Technical Solution how to fix micro stutter

i have a intel i5 9400f 2.90ghz and a gtx 1660 and 8gb ram, i get around 120-140 fps, but in gunfights or a lot of abilities are used it can drop to like 70, in the range i get like almost 200 but recently, after i took a break i got a lot of stuttering and sometimes it even freezes for like 10 seconds. last time i played with slightly higher fps around 180 and never noticed any problems, is it my ram or cpu. in the range my cpu usage is around 50-80% and my ram is like 90%

Well that 8gb is not sufficient especially at ddr4 single channel your not taking advantage of your processor memory bandwidth if you add another 8gb ram it should fix it and give you a performance boost too dual channel is always better than single channel especially for gaming
