Hello, I will keep it brief and say that I am experiencing stutters despite decent fps. The intensity and frequency of the stutters depend on the game. If the PSU is unlikely, then can an SSD also cause stutters? If both of these are unlikely, then what are some common causes for stutters?
 
Solution
Nvm, I understand, I ran it for 3 hours and it was still testing to I exited, first 13 tests were a pass
ssd is cheaper to test then a psu and if not the ssd then the psu is the problem. and you have a extra ssd??? i dont think it would be but it can be ringing in the lines from the psu to components. causing inflauxs in stability to them.. however it could be this is a very low end evga psu and kinda shotty
