| 1345269 | 2013-06-10 09:35:00 | Hi First my specs Windows 8 Premium 64 Bit 12GB DDR2 Ram GTX 580 Geforce Some 650W PSU Motherboard Asus P8Z77-V Pro Samsung SSD 150GB - Windows is on SSD , a 2TB is installed for games only I play games like World Of Warcraft, Natural Selections 2 , Left 4 Dead 2, Resident Evil 6. I have updated to the lastest driver and this happens in Windows 7 too. What happens is when I play any PC games at all every few minute or so the game would just pause for a fraction of a sec to get me killed. I've tried Restarting the Modem Purchasing a new modem Upgraded to Windows 8. Updated Graphics Driver. Purchased a 150GB SSD, Move windows into it, Games onto a Seperate HD. This problem occured during the time Windows was on an HD. I'm thinking of replacing my graphics card to a newer /higher one. Any recommendations on a better card or a cure for this problem? |

| 1345272 | 2013-06-10 11:28:00 | I opened the PC case and this is what it is techworld.co.nz |

| 1345274 | 2013-06-10 22:07:00 | What CPU? I have a similar machine (see sig) and dont have that issue. Also what brand is the graphics card and have you checked how hot it gets? (furmark will give you a worst case test) It is not a great brand of PSU though so it could well be that. |
