VISUAL Lags, Low CPU Usage, No audio problems

[josephcreed7]

Hello, I've spent quite a bit of time searching the forum for answers and i've come across many great suggestions but I just cant seem to figure out my problem.

Visual lag: When im using FL studio, everything that you can move or touch is laggy. The audio is coming through clean, and there arent any drops or stutters.
The only problem I am having is visual lag. My CPU is sitting around 30%

System Specs: I76700k @ 4.5ghz
32GB Corsair Dominator DDR4 3200mhz
GTX 970 SLI
Boot Drive is M.2 970 EVO PLUS
Roland Octa Capture USB @ 44.1 - 192khz (Project set to 44.1)
Sample Library on 860 EVO 1tb
Corsair RM 850 PSU
Acer Predator 27'' 1440p @ 165hz
Corsair Liquid Cooled
Win 10 Home
All of my system specs are within range, meaning that I do not have any temperature issues or other system instabilities. This is strictly an FL studio visual problem. I have performed a clean OS install and installed the latest version of FL Sudio 20, and this issue persists when I load specific projects. This issue does not exist when I am creating a new project, so this might be something within the project that is causing the problem.

FL STUDIO SETTINGS: I have it set to OCTA CAPTURE ASIO, but this problem remains the SAME when I try to use FL ASIO, and ASIO4ALL


VST's : Native Instruments Kontakt, Reaktor, Maschine 2, Massive & Serum

All of my VSTs and content are legit paid for and licensed to me.

My CPU Usage is at 30% steady when I am playing this project. Im not getting any spikes, I will get spikes if I change up to 192khz, but that doesnt appear to be the problem.

Is there something that I am doing wrong? Am I actually spiking one of my four CPU cores, whilst the rest are idle? Any help would be much appreciated. I've been working at this for so long!
