hi guys, when im playing a game it is uber smooth for some minutes then it starts lagging too much ... it happens in all games . im on windows 7 ultimate 32 bit and have gtx 750 ti 2gb gddr5.... this started after i installed msi afterburner and while on screen display, the ram crosses 4gb (ram+page file) it starts lagging too much...when i minimize and unminimize it, it becomes smooth but only for a couple of minutes.....

i have an i3 2120, gtx 750 ti 2gb ddr5 , corsair vs 450 psu and win 7 32bit.

so youre watching use more ram than you have accessible?
I would say thats the issue right there.
dont run "on screen display" and the same game settings.
turn down or off.. for what? too many shadows, not enough vram.
but i also agree. uninstall reinstall afterburner first, might just be wonky

Well first off you should definitely upgrade to 64 bit, you would get even better performance out of it. but check your processes and services in task manager to see if anything you dont want or dont know what it is is open, if not then it might be a hardware problem

I missed this somehow. but yes install 64bit anything.
or uninstall afterburner and download the 32bit version.(not even sure if there is a difference)
