Swtor Stutter / Fps drop

Hi everyone , I recently came back to swtor and have a weird issue. My game will run on constant 141 fps i can move the camera around 360 and it wont drop a single frame. I can mount up and run through the map and not get a fps drop then all of a sudden it drops to 137. It does it in combat aswell and the whole screen almost freezes when this happens for like a millisecond. I know if you ever open the ui it drops which is normal but this happens just in the open world or even in a bunker underground with not much to load.

I Changed all the graphics down the low , disabled enhanced shadows , bloom everything. The game will do the same run constant on 141 then sudden drop to 137 and it just feels terrible. I also tried to set the fps to cap at 60 it does the exact same it just drops to 56-58 but has that millisecond freeze aswell. I tried disabling gsync , vsync , both together , vsync fast in nvidia panel. Triple buffering on and off.

Is this normal i read that the engine is old and not optimized , does anyone have similar issues ?

I have 0 issues in other newer titles and even older titles. My temps run a average of 45 and peaks at 60 maximum.

My specs are

Ram: Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5 64 GB 6000 CL30

Motherboard: ASUS PRIME X870-P WiFi

Graphics Card: Geforce 4080 16g

Monitor: Predator xb273 gx

CPU: Ryzen 7 9800X3D

Windows 11
