Hey guys, I have been having this issue for around 2 weeks now, and I cannot figure out what the problem is, when it comes to computers, I know my way around, but I cannot seem to figure this one out.
So basically what happens is no matter what game I am playing, I am getting this really weird lag spike, where after playing for around 2 minutes my pc freezes for 3 - 5 seconds, sometimes it can last up to 10. This is just making gaming unplayable, and I cannot fix it. The lag spikes are the worst in "Rainbow Six Siege" and "H1Z1".
What I have tried:
- Reinstalling GPU Drivers
- Doing a Virus scan / clearing viruses
- Reinstalling all games / steam
- Checked all part temps (Stable)
- Ram Test
(I probably forgot a bunch as it is 6AM, but I have tried nearly everything, trust me.)
Specs:
CPU - Intel i5 4690k 3.5 ghz
GPU - gtx 1080
RAM - 8gb ripjaws
PSU - 750 watt Corsair
Motherboard - Asus Z97-A
Hard Drive - SSD Sandisk 480GB / 1TB HDD
The only thing that I have actually found that I think may be causing the issue, is whenever I am gaming, my "Memory" usage is at 80 - 90%, but never usually goes above that, I am not really sure if this is normal since I never really payed attention to this before.
If someone can figure this out I would greatly appreciate it, I am sick of having a beast PC, and not being able to game Lmfao..
