Hey guys. I've been an "issue" (I don't even know if it's an issue exactly) with my build that is annoying me. It's not a big deal, it's just a mild nuissance but something I'd love to get rid of. Basically, during gaming and this is mainly when something new appears on screen (sometimes just randomly), it seems like a game (most of them) will freeze for a frame and my fps counter will go from 60 to 59 then to 60 again. I know this doesn't seem like a big deal, but it's rather annoying when I'm playing something and it keeps having these brief freezes every couple of minutes or so, even though they don't disrupt the gameplay. I've updated everything, tried to clean the components the best I could with what I had (mainly a brush) and I have no viruses or malware. I assume it might be a normal thing and I'm just overreacting, just wanted to make sure.
Also, while this happens in most games, it doesn't happen in EVERY single game. In all the Arkham games it happens quite frequently especially when opening doors to new locations, in Hollow Knight it happens when I destroy certain objects, in the Witcher 2 it seems to happen only when something new is loading which isn't that bad and in MGSV it's kind of random. In Alan Wake, Shadow of Mordor, Resident Evil 2, DOOM and Wolfenstein II it doesn't happen at all as far as I've noticed. So, it's kind of all over the place. Thanks.
My specs are 1060 6GB, 16GB RAM, Z370 PC Pro, Intel i5 8400. Windows 10 (not activated).
