So. Yesterday I finished building my computer, I am pretty sure all GPU and CPU drivers are up to date, not sure about mobo though.
Here are my computer specs:
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit with SP1 (I know I should have 64 bit version but I don't have it yet)
Motherboard: ASRock Z97 EXTREME4 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
CPU: Intel Core i5-4690K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor
GPU: GTX 760 2GB
RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-2133 Memory
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 2TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
PSU: SeaSonic G-750 750W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply
Monitor: Dell 1907FP (really old monitor, connected straight to GPU through DVI cable)
The problem is, whatever game I played so far stutters every 3 seconds for like 0.5 second and it's really annoying.
I played JC2: about 40-70 FPS. Does not matter if the settings are at very high or low.
I played League of Legends, the stutter has a lesser impact when farming, but when something more happens on the screen (like 30 minions fighting) it stutters more. I get 60+ FPS.
I played also CoD 4, everything maxed out and it runs smoothly, the only thing I get is that annoying stutter every few seconds. (can't tell the FPS though)
As you may be noticed I have decent FPS and nothing should lag / stutter, but it does.
Any Ideas? I have read on some forums before that it may be CPU power saving feature on in BIOS (could not find it anywhere) and all the drivers should be installed up to date. But maybe it's the OS problem? Should I buy 64 bit ASAP and then try out? I know it's dumb but I actually have both RAM sticks inside the computer with 32 bit system installed, but I wanted to save some time when I get 64 bit OS.
So, any ideas how to fix it? I don't like the idea that I have spent about 650 pounds in total on that PC and it's already causing problems.
