i'm not sure i've choose the right tags; and sorry for my english.
i'll start with saying that i'm quite new to computer building, i've recently made my frist one all by myself (using pcpartpicker ofc) [part list at the end] and since the one i had before was around 15 years old, i immediatly wanted to try all the games i couldn't with my old build; which bring us to the problem i'm having with the witcher 3: the game looks somehow broke "the horse will randomly disappear while i'm riding it", "my character will start swimming in the air in random occasions" and what worry me the most "random black and wite screen, like the one on an old tv, will randomly appear for a fraction of a second around every 20 minutes (it can very much depend, it can appear as soon as every less 5 minutes, or as long as every hour or so; without a precise pattern to it that is); these screens will take all/half the screen for that splitsecond, and surely had me worry for my gpu.
other than these actions which happen every other time i play, i have also experienced: "mobs completly froze in place, expecially when they spawn from render-range", "object rendering range quite lower than what i think it should be" and other things which lead me to think the game is just broke, like npcs standing in place for several seconds doing nothing before they start to go through their normal loops, after entering some kind of menu, like trading; or that i always have to wait in place up to 1 and half a second before i can interact with things (i mean the actiong of interacting the games offer when you get close to something and "use x button to interact" appear; not lag itself, i've not seen my framerate but it looks decent to the eye and have no input lag; even tho the commands are pretty unresponsive, but that might be the game itself).
since the requirement for the game were easly matched by my build i play at medium (on all) graphics, even tho i've noticed a few of those problems when i had everything set to low aswell.
i actually have no other similiar game to compare it atm, all others are online low graphics games or management games (which all run without a problem with good[to me] fps; and i'm talking numbers this time)
in general i've the feeling that sometimes the ai (or w/e is suppose to run any mob) is not working as it should (fights look pretty fine to me tho, it's more about those mobs movements when they are not in combact, it reminds me of skyrim's ai but worse if possible, only those times the game decide to do that tho, the rest of the time they look fine)
also i don't know if this can ever change something, but i've installed the game on an hard disk different from the ssd my os is located in, cheap one too.
I've Already tried to connect the "gpu's power spine on the motherboard aswell as the one on the gpu itself"(can't really remember the name of that one)
and installed the latest version of my gpu's driver.
can someone from these infos have a clue on what might be the problem? have i just miscompared my build and the game's requirements, is it simply an hard disk problem, there is a chance of it being just corrupted files/bad installation of the witcher; or i seriusly have to worry about my power supply efficency and most importantly about my my gpu/cpu safety?
at least to know where to look at, if it's the hardware or the game.
