Hi

I just entered the world of PC gaming. I know very little about it. I have been getting a high frame rate, for the most part, in all games but the fps will randomly drop. It feels like a split second of freeze then continues as normal. The only game that runs completely smoothly is Overwatch. It runs on epic settings and stays around 90-95. I'm getting these frame drops in Crypt of the Necrodancer which most computers should be able to play. If someone could help me out that would be great. Also remember I am computer stupid :) so break it down into dum dum speech.

Thanks in advance!

Your specs looks good. Which windows os are you using? I guess you are having an SSD and have an enough amount of free space left. Even though free space doesn't matter much with the FPS, u need to have atleast 10-15% of the total SSD space left as free space.

Peace.

So i uninstalled the security update for adobe, not sure if that is the correct one. It was the only one relating to adobe. The fps problems still persist.
