So for just about as long as I can remember, every 3D game I play micro stutters whenever something new happens (such as in Hearthstone, when a new card is played, the game will stutter for anywhere from half a second to sometimes over an entire second, in Overwatch when a certain weapon or action is performed for the first time, etc.). It seems to be when anything has to be loaded, it stutters, and it happens pretty consistently throughout the entire game. I guess I had this issue for a long time but I thought it was normal, it wasn't until recently I figured out it was completely abnormal for games to behave this way.
Here is my system:
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit SP1
CPU: Intel Core i7 4771 @ 3.50GHz
RAM: 32GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 799MHz (10-10-10-27) (4x Corsair 8GB)
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 690
Motherboard: ASUSTeK MAXIMUS VI HERO
SSD: 119GB OCZ-VERT OCZ-VERTEX4 SCSI (OS installed on this, obviously)
HDD: 2x Seagate SATA 1TB @ 7,200rpm 64MB Cache (2TB total)
PSU: Corsair CX Series CX750M 750w
Main Monitor: Acer GN246HL (1920x1080@144Hz)
Second Monitor: ASUS VS228 (1920x1080@60Hz)
Here's what I tried based on what I looked up so far:
1) I tried running my games in compatibility mode for Windows 7.
2) I made exceptions for them in Windows Defender and even tried disabling it.
3) I tried closing out Discord (it's overlay feature I already had disabled).
4) I closed out my anti-virus, CCleaner, and all other background-running programs.
5) The latest drivers are all installed.
6) I ran my anti-virus and did not find anything.
7) I tried playing with Aero disabled.
All of my temps are fine. The frame-rates I get are usually very high, max settings and it normally around 90FPS on average, depending on what's going on. Any ideas? Thank you.
