second freezes every few minutes while gaming, constant freeze after system update

While gaming (most games affected) I get random freezes of about 1 second every few minutes or so. while it happens, I see my GPU load sensor go to zero. (see picture) Only happens ingame and only when the game is focused.

It might be connected to that other thing:
When I run the system update and I reboot, i get a 1 second freeze every 2 seconds (without even starting a game), making it hard to even reboot again. after 2nd reboot its all back to normal. Happened last boot as well, here is the log file of that session:

Also, I am under the impression fwupdmgr can't check for GPU drivers.

Also², I ran 2 passes with memtest86+, just in case.
