Hey guys.. Trying to wake life into an old computer and is having some trouble figuring out the next step for this issue. System: Q9550 3.4ghz (lousy cooler) 4x2gb ddr-2 1066 mhz asus p5k deluxe (lastest bios 1005) r7 260x 620W corsair HX something. OCZ-AGILITY3 ATA Device (60gb)...

Ya iam guessing either PSU or mobo too. I have edited the main topic with the model of the motherboard. But still hoping for more feedback and maybe a quick fix

Having trouble fixing a problem with a computer with the following setup CPU: i5 2500k boxed RAM 2x4gb corsair 1600CL9 (CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9) GFX: GTX 560 TI EVGA HDD: WDC SATA6 1TB 7200 rpm black edition DVD sata drive Running windows 7 64-bit with newest BIOS version. The setup is having big...

I would buy/borrow a power meter and see how much power is being drawn from the mains. Then you get a good idea of how much your PSU is loaded instead of buying a new one.

Well if u want a quiet system i have to make sure that the gtx 285 doesn't have coil noise whining. I got a inno3d gtx285 card and when inside games i can hear this a lot :(

Ok would just update this thread to tell that i have found a solution for my problem. It seems that my problem in CS and all other games isn't the same and when i tried another harddisk than WDC green caviar drive the problems was fixed in both TF2 and COD4. So never buy such a drive for gaming ^^

Tried stock settings and doesn't work either. so tried 333*9 , 333*9.5 and 400*9 settings. Left 4 dead works fine too so dont sure what to make of all this.

The only thing that i can see is using cpu power while playing CS is "system" and its using around 0-10% cpu power.

Well it didn't spike to 100% then, because i checked with proces explorer and couldn't see any major spikes. Can post a log of which process that i have running when i come home from work but its pretty much clean.

Putted in a new harddrive. Formatted it and installed winxp pro 32bit sp2. Updated everything in windows update, installed chipset driver, installed nvidia driver and updated directx. After that i downloaded steam and downloaded CS through that. CS still made those spikes like my computer...

bump? could anybody help me please?

Yes it does it in non-networked games got my got my cable unplugged.. Using 100Hz if i have V-sync on else i got 120hz... using a samsung RZ2233 screen.

I know this gonna be some wall of text, but i'm hoping that there's some smart people out there who is willing to help me. I have had this problem since day 1 with my new computer. In many games it does some hiccups where the picture freeze for like 0.1 sec. This has begun to be more and more...
