My Acer Nitro 5 AN515-57-79TD Is starting to randomly lag.

I have an Acer Nitro 5 AN515-57-79TD with an RTX 3050 TI and A i7-11800H with 32gb of ram (16 of which I added). So I've had this laptop for over around 3-4 months and one night i went to go afk in a roblox game. Once i woke up I saw some video tearing (which has happened before without any problems) so i just put the laptop to sleep for like ~10 minutes. After that i played some CS2 for a bit then hopped back onto Roblox which is when the lagging started to happen. Roughly 1 hour and half after i reopened the laptop from puting it to sleep. So I've been trying to fix this lagging for the past 2 days now and I have tried the following:
Restoring to an earlier date (of which it was already lagging since there were any other ones)

Resetting while keeping my files.

Resetting while deleting everything.

Uninstalling the GPU drivers and reinstalling them.

Updating the BIOS.

Cleaning out the fans.

Overclocking the GPU.

Also heres an example of the lagging:

The Nitro 5 AN515-57 laptop with its RTX 3050 TI and its i7-11800H with 32GB of ram is should be more than capable of playing all high end any games including the Roblox game. Have you install the GeForce Experience software and are you playing the Roblox game through this software’s settings, as this game is included in the NVidia GeForce Experience game ultimate game settings for the RTX3050Ti gpu. Also, you need to reinstall the latest Win-11 RTX-3050Ti GeForce Game Ready Driver version 537.42 WHQL and use the CUSTOM install and do a clean install which deletes all previous RTX3050Ti drivers that are on your laptop, as that is the way to install all new NVidia drivers and that is why NVidia has this custom feature on their new drivers.

Also make sure that you have all the latest windows updates installed and you also install the latest Intel drivers by installing the Intel® Driver & Support Assistant. Try all that and let us know if it fixed the lag problem in the Roblox game and your laptop.

If the reinstalling of the drivers doesn't fix the lag, then you need to do a clean install of Win-11 with a bootable Win-11 Rufus USB and also include the AN515-57s Intel IRST unzipped driver on this USB to load this drive once you have deleted the boot drive to be able to newly format the boot M.2 SSD drive, as this is how you do a clean reinstall of Win-11, as a reset with or without files does nothing and its useless. Try all that as it will work and fix your problems, as your lag problems could be either from the actual game or is because of a faulty operating system drivers which this will fix and make the Win-11 OS operate to its peak performance with all your software. Good luck and hope this helps you out, btw I've got a very similar AN515-56 with the exact specs as your AN515-57 laptop and my laptop works 100% and perfectly after I did all that I suggested above.

sorry for the late response but i have reinstalled windows using an usb, and it helped. but now whenever i try to play something like vr the lagging comes back and my laptop starts to beep like crazy. And yes, I know vr on the 3050ti isn't recommended but it used to work fine.
