Also have a master cooler 212 evo.
Had this computer for about 1 year (starting from July 2013) and had a problem where when I am playing games my computer would stutter (minor freezes like half a second), I also want to note that this problem occurred at the start of using this computer. Eventually, my computer would stutter so much, I had to restart my computer. After I bought an after market cooler (Master Cooler 212 Evo.) for my cpu, the problem minimizes to certain games (I can play games like League of Legends normally but not games like Counter Strike Global Offense or Battlefield 4, which are games that need a good computer which my computer can handle). So I was curious to see if it was the dust that was causing the problem, so I used compressed air to blow the dust away and now my computer starts to stutter after booting up! I had used compressed air before on my computer to clean dust away and this would not happen. I desperately need help now!
Typing this in safe mode.
Things I tried:
-To further note about the stuttering problem, I sometimes get this problem which can be seen in this screenshot, http://imgur.com/3ybSeM3
- Uninstalled my gfx card by going into safe mode then used a software to uninstall it. Rebooted normally and downloaded and installed 337.88 driver for my gfx but still not worked. (was 332.21 before).
-I also sent my gfx card back to EVGA for a new one in November 2013 but I still had the suttering problem
