That's the idea of testing with XMP disabled, to see if it does ;)

Sounds good ;)

If the time out does occur, check your network cabling for any damage. Swap / replace any wires to test because some faults in cabling cannot be seen. Restart your network equipment like your router (and modem if you use one) too. Make sure your networking drivers are fully updated, this can be...

As said above I don't know :( if I had to make a guess I'd say the amount of RAM you're using could be causing instability for the GPU, but this is a complete guess. I assume you have XMP enabled as you're running 3200MHz RAM. What happens if you have your 32 / 16 / 8GB of RAM in the machine...

From what you described it sounds like either your game or your internet is at fault. Likely the internet if it is causing your stream to drop but your computer to still run. Fortunately the tools needed to test are already baked into Windows 10. Open up Command Prompt (search for CMD in your...

I couldn't say to be perfectly honest. But I feel like we have reached the same conclusion. I would suggest putting your friends GPU in your machine, but you doing the opposite gives us the same answer. It is most likely your GPU is on its way out. As a last effort, have you tried...

Unless I am misreading (could be the case :p) the common denominator between your two machines is your GPU. I am assuming you're using different sticks of RAM in the different machines? Just to clarify - The GPU worked when you took both machines down from 16GB of RAM to 8GB in both machines?

To springboard off Siaan with a bit of my own input. You can run both games with your current rig. I speak more for Dota (7000 hours across 8 years) when I say this but you will not get a high FPS at max settings on with a CPU upgrade alone, although it is an excellent place to start. You will...

Fastest course of action to determine if the card is at fault is to test another card. Easier said than done, I know. But if you have any friends local to you with a GPU you can test with?

You say 'the game' as a singular so is it just one game? if so, which one? I know you said Spotify is affected by the lag but does the computer lock up entirely during this short period? (I can appreciate it may not be the easiest thing to determine) I guess what I'm asking is if we know...

After the lag occurs and goes away, does the lag return in quicker intervals? If so, does restarting the game / computer break the cycle? Does this happen outside of games?

Hi :) Does the ticking only occur at particular times? On loading screens, in battle, on the campaign map etc.. If you take the side off your case, maybe you can get your ear in closer to try and isolate the origin of the sound?

Hey! So, as many of us know. The Windows update KB4515384 really messed up some people's audio. But after uninstalling the update. My issues are still present, all be it less severe. My headset is a Razer Kraken V1 7.1 USB. Using Razer Synapse 2.0 for its management. My problem is that...

Yeah. I think I've already come to the conclusion that it's doubtful I'll be able to get a monitor to suit my needs. I think the only thing I can do is to keep moths out of the room, to begin with. A net can keep the little moths out. But Hawk Moths (the big ones) can push straight through...

Moths can also breed and grow inside too. They feed off food and fabrics. As much as I love moths, I'm here about monitors specifically.
