	Log in to remove this sponsored message On newer games (And even some older) I've been noticing I will get "choppy fps" at points in some games, just randomly I will have a few 0.1sec screen hangs, this doesn't change whether I'm on normal graphics or ultra-high @ 1980x1080;native (Both run fine bar the cut of fps at random intervals) and on MSI afterburner, the GPU will hardly ever go past 65% load. So my question is.. Is there something that could be bottlenecking my system? This has become quite frustrating as I quite enjoy my gaming smooth.. I'm pretty sure all of my drivers are up to date except my actual mobo bios. Possibly upgrade to an SSD? GeForce GTX570 (285.62driver) (820/1640/2050Mhz) 8Gb G.Skill DDR3 @ 1698Mhz Asus Sabertooth P67 Mobo Intel i5-2500k @ 4Ghz 2TB Seagate HDD Asus Xonar Deluxe HD1.3 (sound) 850W Power Supply Coolermaster Case (Thermaltake Heatsink and inside fansx4) Whole system stays under 60c all day everyday. My system is very clean (Windows 7 64bit) and runs at about 15% ram and 0.5% CPU when not under load. Thanks.

	http://www.geforce.com/Optimize/Guides/how-to-get-rid-of-lag-guide Let java open the application, and skip to the "stutters" page. What are the specs on your HDD. That's the only possible reason I can think of. ------------------- last.fm

	sounds like something is requesting info from your hdd randomly. i had the same exact issue as you last night... happened a few times last night... only ever happened last night for me though.

	do you have any power settings on the hard drive that turns it off after inactivity? i doubt this is the cause, as it looks like a much smaller lag, but still, might be something to look in to. -------------------
