Dropped frames/stutter in 3D video?

After a bout of World In Conflict, I noticed that my computer ( C2D E6400, 8600GTS, WinXP Pro) was "stuttering" in 3D video. It is very slight, I can *almost* dismiss it, but more than 1 other person has confirmed that there is indeed an issue. It really only seems to drop a couple of frames, just henough to make the video jerk every couple of seconds. I ran HDR demo, whic I have used for a long time as a standard benchmark, to confirm it was not just WIC. Same symptoms. I am running the latest directx, and the latest nvidia drivers. I also tried disabling power management on my processor to no avail. It does not seem to be tearing either. I also ran dxdiag's tests, and it does the same thing with all rendering interfaces (dx7-9).

Any Ideas?

EDIT: I also have no reason to doubt my powersupply, which is usually a culprit in these matters, it is a < 4 month old corsair 550W
 
Try disconnecting off the Internet and then disable your AV and Firewall to see if they arent helping.
If that fails, start killing processes (not essential ones) and see if the problem gets better.
 
Check your memory timings and your overclock and make sure your timings are not too aggressive I have had video issues with OCed memory....
