A very quick spike in CPU usage does seem to be fairly normal behaviour when opening the task manager. It might take a brief moment to start-up but I wouldn't really go as far as a 'stuttering'.

1080 will beat the 1070, You can still OC the 1080. might even get a really good over-clocker, who knows.

If you can afford it, the cheap 1080 is still going to have more performance than the 'expensive' 1070. What you might miss out on if you go with the 1080, is in my opinion, overclocking. its likey to be a 'lower' binned chip. The expensive 1070 on the otherhand would have a good chance of...

What if you ditch the PhysX GPU? I feel like it might be an issue. I personally have very mixed results with a PhysX GPU.

It is very possible your lack of thermal compound is the culprit, the thermal compound is a fairly important part of the puzzle. It will greatly help your CPU transfer heat into the heat-sink you have sitting on top of it. You can use many things as a make-shift thermal compound, but to avoid...

That report suggests to me that C: has alot of bad sectors and data stored on those particular sectors is now corrupt. This is not normal behaviour, if possible you should look into your warranty status and begin a claim if you are covered.

the repeated errors might suggest the HDD has some issues with bad sectors and if it is in warranty, should be able to be RMA'd.

There is no app the will 'optimise games'. Keeping your drivers and games up to date is usually the best way to keep things optimised. I also find software based solutions to be unnecessary and a bit of a waste of time. Im pretty sure AMD does have a program that offers graphical...

Simulated. I don't think a 'true' 7.1 headset is even a thing.

Hard to give an actual answer that will remedy this issue. It could be a large number of things, or a combination of things casing these latency issues. First of all, double check wi-fi drivers, ensure the drivers are correct and are up to date. Can you test with an ethernet cable at all...

You will need to tell us what model router this is, it's a pretty advanced feature and will usually be present on after market routers. If your router does not support a Dual WAN or changing it through the web interface you may be able to flash the router with a new third party firmware like...

You haven't given a very detailed information on how your home network is setup. However with the limited information you have provided, yeah you should be able to take advantage of gigabit. Like mentioned above, you will need to have sufficient networking hardware that is also capable of...

Turning VSync on or limiting your max fps to 60hz in game should help reduce/remove tearing in the image.

Not really. If you really really wanted to sure whatever, go for it. But I personally feel that 4K is still a bit too much of a reach away, unless you have a really nice income and can afford some pretty fancy computer gear. 4K on the console is just not really even worth it if you ask me, If...
