Getting system interrupts while gaming.

[Being Careless]

. Specs: MOBO Asus m5a99 FX pro R2.0 -120 GB SSD. - Radeon r9 290X 4 GB GPU - AMD FX 9590 4.7 GHZ 8 core (With massive Duel heat sink Dual Deepcool fan attached, arctic silver thermal paste used) - 2 8 Gig sticks of Corsair Vengeance ram. -Cooler Master 1000 Watt PSU Many, Many 120mm 5200 Rpm 240 CFM fans on case. Corsair Vengeance Ram cooler on ram.

At first the system interrupts were random and not particularly while I was gaming. Wasn't a huge issue cause it only happened a few times a week or less for like an hour or less. Now it has become more predictable. It happens specifically while playing video games. (But not while watching youtube/windows media player)

I have dpclat to monitor the latency and when I minimize the game, it instantly goes to all green and is fine. Maximize and all reds and yellows and is completely unplayable.

I've tried disabling various devices in device manager, but i cannot seem to find the problem one, if it is in fact a driver.

I've ran malware virus scans updated all drivers all windows updates, updated bios, cc cleaner, everything I can think of. I'm pretty decent with computers but not incredibly technically competent. Done lots of google searches and tried most everything on this link http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/fix-high-cpu-usage-caused-system-interrupts/. (Only thing I haven't done is disable ALL of my devices in fear I i'm not technically skilled enough to bring my computer back to functionality after I start turning everything on and off. un installing and re installing and such)

Any help is appreciated. Thank you

Did as it said downloaded and installed the Windows performance toolkit. After I enter the third line it tells me to in command prompt (xperf %userprofile%\Desktop\trace.etl) It gives me an error in red lettering that says " xperf: error: C/users/CARELESS/trace.etl: The parameter is incorrect. (0x80070057) and nothing happens. So I followed that path and opened "trace" and it opens the program just fine but without any details like there would be if the command prompt worked properly (im assuming) and im stuck as this point. Program works fine installed fine, but is not opening as it should be with the command prompt commands.

I'm sorry, can't help you further than where I did. You are now in one of those mazes of technical issues where you have to resolve several sub-issues before you can tackle your real issue. You may just have to figure out if you could strike out in another direction.

Sometimes I have moderate amounts of luck with Windows Resource Monitor and monitoring CPU-intensive threads:
