[SOLVED] Windows 10 strange stuttering issue

[CAMILOGOD]

Hello, so before posting this, I did a google search of "windows 10 stuttering, toms hardware" and read about 7 different posts, none helped and none were the EXACT issue I was facing.

Basically what happens is, when I boot up windows, everything works great for about 1 hour (sometimes even longer) but after that, i'm getting stuttering.

For example, if im playing music and open a web browser (doesnt matter which browser) the audio, and my mouse stutter. The audio sounds like its being play super slow and kind of robotic.

I'm using an HDMI cable from the GTX 960 so I've disabled the on board audio but still no help.

What I find very strange is that it doesnt happen at least 1 hour in after I boot up windows. Which is causing me to restart my computer after a few hours of unbearable usage.

This is my setup

System:Windows 10
Motherboard: Asus p8z77v-lx
Ram: 8 gigs corsair vengeance
Hdd: Samsung 1tb
cpu: intel pentium 15 3570k 3.20ghz
psu: thermaltake trs 750w
gpu: Nvidia GTX 960 4g OC edition

i think its to do with how windows 10 handles memory. You didn't ask this question but I think its related: http://lifehacker.com/why-is-windows-10s-system-process-using-so-much-ram-1725076206

Win 10 seems to test old computers.

also, as you noticed, every stuttering problem appears to be different. This is first time i decided to try to answer it so I haven't looked at the other ones.

Thats strange, I don't have an actual "system" process showing in task manager, the highest program taking up ram is firefox and its only 364.2mb

There is a "system and compressed memory" process but its only 100mb

it doesn't tend to do anything if pc isn't idle - it only works in down time. It tries to work in back ground and not get in your way.

Plus you have enough ram for what you use.

Your pc seems okay now? Buy an ssd if you want, it will fix your pc more than adding more ram would. I have 16gb ram, I currently have 13gb free, so even if i had half my ram I would still have 5gb free. More ram isn't the answer

Could it be my old cpu? I think its time for an upgrade soon anyway.

its only 3 years old, and runs 100mhz slower than mine (I have a 4690K) , I wouldn't think that its the cause of whatever problem you are still trying to fix?

the slowest part of your memory chain is the hdd, if anything will be slowing you down, its it. you can run this to test it out: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/hardware-testing-software/fl/samsung-hutil.htm

This cpu is about 6 years old now. But you my friend, are killing it right now. Thanks for that program, I'll run it and see what happens

*UPDATE* looks like the last version of HUTIL was made in 2008. I tried running it and it says it wont work on my pc

Your CPU was released in 2012, that is 4 years now... that is what it says here: http://ark.intel.com/products/65520/Intel-Core-i5-3570K-Processor-6M-Cache-up-to-3_80-GHz (its your link)

I saw it was old, its meant to make a bootable disc tho so you can run it without windows.

or you can download this: http://www.hirensbootcd.org/ which includes all of these programs: http://www.hiren.info/pages/bootcd and has a copy of two Samsung hdd test programs included.
