Acts like it wants to die when i turn the ac on

I have replaced the pcv valve. But now when I turn my ax on it acts like it wants to die. Any idea of what this could be? I was thinkin maybe fuel filter?

Do you have a check engine light?

Check the fuel pressure with a gauge if its within specs if okay-check the idle air control valve, EGR valve and throttle position sensor-
