For about a couple of months now I have been getting random fps drops (to around 1-20fps) on almost all games even when I am getting a very high constant frame rate otherwise.
The frame drops normally occur in cpu intensive games such as Arma 3, Arma 2 and dayZ, but I also sometimes notice fps drops in other games (like CSGO). I now found that whenever my frames drop it is when my hard drive spikes to 100%.
I've tried many things to fix this such as; disabling windows services (superfetch, Background intelligent transfer service, and windows search), disabling all startup applications, changing virtual memory paging (Screenshot of what i mean: http://prntscr.com/azid4z), disabling all non-windows services and running a malware test and removing malware.
I also ran a 3rd party program test on my HD and found this: http://prntscr.com/azielm (The left one is the programs demo and the right is my hard drive)
Screenshot of my disk usage in an Arma 3 session: http://prntscr.com/azifmr
My specs are:
I7 4790k
Gtx 970
Asus ranger VII mobo
2Tb seagate HDD
If anyone could help I would be so happy as this is really bothering me!
Thanks
