Hello guys. I just switched to a 850 evo 250gb from a kingston ssdnow v300 120gb.
When i alt-tab from battlefield 1 and i go back to the game , it freezes for half a second.
When i watch a stream on twitch, then switch to another tab, then go back to the stream, it freezes for half a second as well.
Is it possible that it's the SSD's fault? Maybe it has an ECO mode or something? What could i do ?
 
Streaming doesn't use the disks but moving from stream to stream a very brief pause is normal as it buffers in that video.
With the Game.... I wonder if you are multitasking too much and using up your available ram and that brief pause is stuff being loaded back in to main memory from the swap file.

I move from facebook to stream. And it freezes for some miliseconds. I've been watching twitch streaming for years and i never had this issue, until my last windows clean installation (and the addition of my new SSD) . Also ive been playing Battlefield for months, and it only does it after the windows clean install. :(
