First update your network driver and check how it goes. Then, if you still have the same issue use MSI utility and set your network driver from high interrupt priority to undefined and check. Also in my case PUBG was stuttering mess till I disabled all power saving features on my Realtek driver (green ethernet, power saving, energy efficient ethernet and ao on, depending on the chip it could hve more options).
sell and go intel?? he has the option of upgrading to 3000, and 5000 series Ryzen. Why go with a total platform switch?
My driver date is: 6/15/2018, lastes from my BIOS, about the power saving modes of Realtek driver, i have tried disabling Green ethernet, energy efficent ethernet and i got a problem (i got random disconnected from CSGO).
Different Driver Support and Work Environment. A lot less ''Power Saving''. Because theres too many ''Ryzen Stutter'' threads in '' General Hardware'' Section.
Ok, download it from network chip manufacturer not from your motherboard vendor, motherboard websites mostly have old drivers. After you do that then test the games. If it is still stuttering download MSI utility software, I believe you can find it here on Guru3D and set your network driver interrupt priority from HIGH (Realtek defaults at HIGH) to undefined and test. If nothing changes then change interrupt priority from undefined back to whatever it was on by default.
maybe older boards aren't getting some new fixes ? imo a 3000/5000 upgrade may not solve this, might be platform related just as well.
He most likely has some issues with network driver or network lag / packet loss, he said offline mode works fine and as I mentioned interrupt priority can cause that issue as well but it could be just high packet loss. Now packet loss in most games doesn't cause stutters but still, interrupt priority is a good 'tweak' he could try to use. Also I've previously had issues similar to this, updated network driver to the most recent version and problem solved. Most motherboard vendors have outdated network drivers on their webpages.
so that's a correct assumption a 3000/5000 cpu would solve nothing most likely. and that the drivers that mobo manufacturers put up on websites are sometimes outdated.

A little off topic but I cannot figure out why EA did not fix the stuttering in NFS Heat. Massive spoiler and could have easily been patched.
