So this has been happening since I first build my gaming computer. It started with Crysis 2 right when I installed it. Since then I've, gotten a new motherboard, new RAM, a second Hard drive for storage, over the course of about a year. So far none of these upgrades have done anything to fix the problem. Since I'm running games off a different hard drive now (OS still on the same one) I can't imagine it's cause by a bad HDD? So that leaves my GPU.
Nothings over heating or even close, CPU never goes past 32C on a hot day, GPU never goes past 55C, motherboard temps sit around 45C. HDD's around 25-30C
PSU seems fine, I monitor the voltages they get up to about 12.2V at load (although it's a 750w unit so it's not actually much of a load).
RAM is set to correct timings/voltage, can't imagine I've gone through 3 pairs of bad sticks (2 sets on my last board).
Here are the game that I own that are affected: Shift 2 (my new one that made this issue bother me again)
WarHammer 40k Space Marine (not quite so bad)
Crysis 2 (the worst one, it's unplayable and I bought it 6 months ago)
All my other games work just fine, Just Cause 2, Dues Ex, Guild Wars 2, and others that don't really load my GPU/CPU up much so they probably don't matter.
I've asked this many times before, no one ever has anything for me. Are these signs of a bad HDD (mine is a bit old), bad GPU. I'm starting to make some money again, the next thing I'm going to try swapping out will be my GPU (for a 660, it'll be bottlenecked, but I want to upgrade my CPU too) unless someone can offer me any help.
Thanks, and my specs are in my signature!
