New SSD, Dota 2 Now Stuttering

[AndrewBlake]

I upgraded my laptop to a 512 GB SSD, and installed windows 8.1 into it, used my cloud to bring any files I wanted over, and re-installed most my programs from their websites. However, when I started to try and play Dota 2, every 10 or so seconds there would be a .5-2 second stutter, in which everything would stop updating (Animations would just repeat but nothing would actually move). It would then continue like normal. I am getting very high FPS while playing however. It only affects Dota 2, and I have read many forums about stuttering but none of the solutions have worked or their version of stuttering wasn't like mine. I used MSI Afterburn after reading one thread, asking someone to use it during the game to figure out what happens when the spike occurs. I followed this advice and discovered that my GPU usage seems to jump up to 100% and then jump down. This is odd, as my old Hard Drive did not cause this, so I doubt it has something to do with my graphics card. Any ideas?

Problem seems to have gone away.
