Hello!

After playing demanding games for a couple of minutes (10-40) i get stutters regularly. These stutters usually get worse over time until the best i can do is just stop playing.

This is my rig:
Windows 10 pro
I5-7500
GTX 970 MSI
Motherboard b250-ds3h-cf
1863GB Western Digital WDC WD20EZRZ-00Z5HB0
931GB Western Digital WDC WD10EZEX-00BN5A0
8GB ram single-channel (dont remember brand)

Also, i dont know if these matters, but i have a dual monitor setup.

The frequency of the CPU doesnt go down while gaming. The temps of the cpu dont go above 38c and the gpu stays in the 50c-62c range. The motherboard always stays in 28c.

My drivers are updated, my hdds are defragmented. I play with all background applications closed.

I'm going to assume on 1080p monitor?
But yea, both of those will use more than 8GBs of ram - Dishonored 2s recommended specs state 16GBs even.
Not to say you can't run them on 8 - you know this firsthand - but it should run more smoothly.
