Hello, people. I have an issue with my gaming PC; when I play games and they have to load something, I see a 0.5-1s drop in frames, then they are back to normal. This is random from what I've been experiencing, sometimes the drop is to 1-5 frames, other times to 1/3-1/2 of the current FPS, and sometimes not drop at all.
It is very painful to test since sometimes I have the problem every time there is a chance for it to happen, other times I can try for half an hour and see no drop at all. (I can record videos to show you what I mean).
Examples of this happening:
-In The Walking Dead when I have to answer or make a choice
-In The Banner Sage when the caravan stops and a dialogue pops out
-In Dota when a huge team fight takes place with lots of abilities used at the same time
Things I've already tried:
-Formatting
-Updating Drivers (several in fact)
-Changing energy plan
-Changing options in Nvidia control panel
-Disabling Windows GameDVR
-Changing PCI slot for the graphic card
-Monitoring the CPU when this happens, which doesn't show any weird spike.
My specs are:
i7 6700 3.40Ghz
SSD Samsung Evo 850 (windows installed here and a second HDD for most of my games)
Nvidia GTX 980ti
XFX PRO850W 850W ATX
I'm stuck with my current knowledge, so I would be grateful if someone could help me solve this.
Thank you very much.
