i just installed this brand new Graphics card(asus HD 7770 2ddr)
I play minecraft and i get a smooth fps and just some fps spikes
but when i play games such as gmod and counter strike i get very bad fps lag spikes
every time i move my mouse my fps drops down to 0 and goes back up to 300..
when i don't move my mouse and just use my arrow keys i get no lag
Before i installed some gpu tweaks and for some unknown reason my game was no longer fps lagging, so i thought the issue was fixed.
but im always wrong and once again i keep getting fps lag spikes
i have 8 gugs of ram and
a Intel Pentium 3.0 GHz processor.
nothing is taking up my memory.
Why is this happening? please help me im very confused
(i have all my drivers up to date)
and have a 650w power supply please help

It cant be my cpu like i said before i fixed it once and i no longer had fps lag...
Only when i move my mouse... when u look around in a fps game? when i looka round i get fps lag
but when i just move with my arrow keys i dont get any lag at all?
does that have anything to do with my mouse?

 


It certainly could be. Have you tried different usb ports for the mouse, as well as reinstalling any mouse drivers?
