For the past couple of months ive been having an issue where there are small hiccups in my game play, specifically in high pace games like rocket league that have a bunch of movement in them. While this seems trivial, its really been getting on my nerves because its started to happen a lot more. My fps is fine and my internet is great, so im not really sure what it is, but ive tried reinstalling/updating drivers, reinstalling games and steam, and putting them on different hard drives, but the issue wont go away. Any help is appreciated, and I think it is most likely a component that might be loose or damaged because I dont notice this on other computers I used.
 
Solution
A theory...
If you do not use a ssd, a hard drive takes longer to do game checkpoints and to load graphics textures from disk.
