Hey Ive upgraded my monitor to 144hz dell gsync and new GPU to a 1070 and been having this random stutter on my computer. It happens to my whole desktop and very noticeable when I watch videos. Basically when I watch videos it will stutter for like a frame or two but the audio doesnt stutter at all. It happens randomly like every minute or so.

When I play games for example, League of Legends, when the lag happens my FPS drops from 140 to like 60 for like half a second and it goes back to normal. The audio doesnt skip just the video. Anyone have an idea of whats going on and how to fix it? Thanks

First off, my condolences on having Frontier. Unless these lag spikes are occurring regularly at specific times, it might be your internet speed not being consistent. Which is why I got rid of Frontier.

Back on topic: I would start with removing the DDR3 1333mhz RAM kit and test it.


As for monitoring temps, Realtemp and MSI Afterburner should eb able to give you this information.

I'm like 90% sure its not the internet causing the lag spike because I was testing out my gsync with the "pendulum gsync demo" and I was getting the spikes. Unless the pendulum demo does use my internet idk lol..

Back on topic of the DDR 1333 ram, when I installed it I actually overclocked it to 1600 to match my first set of ram I had. I didint have the lag whatsoever until I upgraded to the 1070 and monitor tho.. But I will try taking out the 1333 ram after I get off work and report back to you, thanks.

Hey sorry for late reply.. I removed the ram and its actually a different ram of what I posted lol. Its a corsair 1600 1.5v. I remember I had to overclock it to 1.65v to match my kingston ram.
