ok here is the situation. While playing games on my pc I seem to be getting a random pause and its usually about 1 second long or so. Its never really bothered me that much because it doesn't happen that often. I bought battlefield 4 when it came out and I started up multiplayer and I started really noticing these pauses/stutters. Well when I pulled up the cpu/gpu usage chart in game using the command perfoverlay.drawgraph 1 I noticed that whenever the pause would happen there would be a cpu spike. So I made sure all of my drivers were up do date, defragged my hard drive, unparked my cores, made sure there was no malware on my pc and finally I upgraded to windows 8 and that didn't help. So I finally wiped everything but the os off of my hard drive ,still no luck. Recently I orded a new motherboard and put it in my pc. I booted it up and updated bios and installed everything that needed to be installed for the new board. Started up bf4 and the spikes happended 3 times as often as they did before. Im out of ideas and would really appreciate some help. The temps on my cpu are fine(Just thought id throw that in there). One more thing though, My cpu power cable is a 4x4 pin, my new motherboard does except 8pin but only 1 4pin fits, would this have any affect?.
