So I just clean installed Windows 7 because of a BSOD problem that I was having previously, and figured I would just start over fresh to eliminate a few possibilities. Anyways, after installing Windows 7 and trying to update the 145-ish updates that it had for me, a ton of them failed to install http:// (the list is pretty long of failed updates.) After they had failed I just shrugged it off and downloaded Overwatch because my friends wanted to play, but I noticed that my FPS was spiking below 50, and my audio was crackling. While I had the game running I went to my resource monitor and checked the CPU usage which was spiking to 100% and then dropping between 30%-50%, then spiking back up. So I was just wondering if the CPU usage spikes were possibly caused by not having all the Windows updates, or if it was something else.
