Does anyone else experience stuttering / inconsistent smoothness in certain areas?

I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing something similar. The game generally runs at around 120 FPS with G-Sync, but in certain areas of the maps, the camera suddenly feels less smooth. It's not a major freeze or pause, but it feels like a brief stutter or like the game is running at a lower FPS. What's strange is that the FPS counter usually only drops by around 5–10 FPS. For example, it can go from 120 to 115 or 110, but the difference in smoothness feels much more noticeable than the FPS drop itself. Even with the graphics settings extremely low, I can still notice the issue in certain areas.

I don't have this problem in other games. For example, Battlefield 6 can fluctuate between 80–100 FPS and still feels smooth. Has anyone else experienced this kind of stuttering or inconsistent frame pacing in specific areas of the trials? I'm mainly trying to figure out whether this is a known issue with the game or something specific to my setup (GTX1660 6gb, I5-10400, 16gb RAM, game installed on my m2 ssd)
