Hey guys, quick question.
So i've recently branched out from gaming on the usual stuff i do and started going at all the games on my steam list, ticking off one by one, which i finally have the time to do and have had time to play some absoloute gems!
But i've noticed some games have problems, not game breaking but surely noticable.
How come some games, when say, walking into a new area, spawning in an enemy, doing certain things, does the game freeze for a very short period of time?
I've noticed it with a few games recently, stuff like Skyrim, DmC, Dishonoured and a few others, going into certain areas or certain things happening cause a slight hiccup and then back to normal for a little bit.
Some games benefit from being on the SSD, but usually this doesnt eliminate it, sometimes i notice it more on games because i limit my FPS in order of stability but sometimes it just... Happens?
Some games run smooth as all can, Sleeping Dogs being a great example of a game that runs so fab on my computer, and Fallout 3 being a case of one that really doesnt.
I assume it's loading stuff off the Hard Drive, because in some games it happens in the same area, and in stuff like TF2 it happens sometimes (but i suspect thats tf2 being a bit shoddy lately)
It isnt completely game breaking, in most cases, fallout 3 has definately been a pain to replay due to this problem, but others seem completely fine.
Is it just natural? or is something in my setup causing it? Maybe the VRAM/RAM isnt as good as can be?
Many thanks for the insights!
