The setup:
Sempron 64 2800+
Biostar Tforce6100-754
Single stick of 1gb G.SKILL PC3200 (2.5-3-3-7- 1T)
eVGA 6600GT Pci-express
Fortron AX400-PN psu
Hitachi Desktar 7200RPM PATA hdd
Latest ForceWare drivers
Latest nForce430/410 drivers

The issue:
When playing a game on any settings level it seems that frames have a tendency to skip.
For instance, in First Person Shooters I'll be running along and the graphics will be very smooth, except for these brief periods when the graphics seem to stop for a split second. (this very short pause occurs about every second). It's sort of like hitting bumps in the graphics every so often. Is this normal, or did I get a bum card?

Thanks!
 
probly loading lagg. clock that mofo up to 2.0Ghz atleast and it should be good
i think my 1700+ has the same specs(not to bash you or anything)
 
It's overclocked stable at 2.2ghz.

I tried teh overclock vs stock and it has no effect.

Well, in trying to diagnose this problem I have reinstalled Windows several times. I've used the new drivers for evreything, and even tried the old ones that came with the equipment. I've also tried installing SP1 and SP2, but neither correct this problem.

I'm starting to think that it's just the way the games are.... :eek:
