What can cause a choppy video playback? This is not only when watching/streaming movies, but also in games. It's not like a sudden jumpy chop, but a constant 24/7 minimal chop. Just reformatted, rules out spy ware/virus and processes problems and those type of problems. Graphic tweaking does not help, since i am not only playing games, but watching streamed movies as well. This includes vsync and different drivers.
Gpu and cpu temps are good.
I've tried different video card/psu/ram. Have not tried changing CPU/MOBO/HDD. Which one do you think is the culprit?
I dont know if this is normal or not, but when my cpu is idle at 0% load, every few random seconds my HDD activity light ticks as if it's accessing it for a split second.
