Hello, Im wondering if you could help me with a very annoying issue im having with my games performance. The games im trying to run are: Warhammer Dawn of war, Battlefield 2, Eve Online.
My pc was getting stutter in all my games, and also seems to stutter a bit when scrolling pdf documents and websites . In the games it's not a hugely obvious stutter, but still very annoying.
i had bought a new graphics card (7900gt) even though my current one was more than enough for playing dawn of war (x850xt pe) but that didnt help. I had tried a differnt processor, ram, hard drive, etc untill there was nothing else to try. had formated about 10 times with differnt combinations of monitor/mouse/keyboard etc which stil didnt solve the problem.
So then i had taken my pc to 3 differnt pc repair guys (none of which actualy played games though) and they all said that there was nothing wrong with the pc. basicly they said that my 3d mark score was what it should be and that they can't find what's wrong.
So then eventualy i went and bought a new pc. I got a core 2 duo e600, intel board and 2 gig of ram which came in a bundle from overclockers uk so i know that they'r compatable, a nvidia 7600 GT, soundlbaster x-fi soundcard, and basicly everthing else except for a monitor which i have taken from the old pc. the monitor is a 19 inch acer Al1912. . I have tried virus scans, latest drivers etc so there is nothing left to do now.
Basicly i still get the same results on all games which is that they stutter when turning round/scrolling. And iv'e run out of things to try. I have mainly been wanting to play dawn of war, and that seems to be pretty smooth except when i scroll the screen around and move over some units which makes it stutter. Im wondering if you have any ideas i can try. the only thing i can think of is that it's the electricity in my house messing up my computer but i doubt that. im pretty sure it's not my imagination though as the games are all pretty old compared to the graphics card/s. thanks
