Source based games freezing

All my source based games will load then even from the very first menu they will freeze for about 5 seconds, run for a short while (about 10-15 seconds) freeze, run, freeze, etc.

I have run memtest with 10 passes and no fails. My graphics card and motherboard are new and there was no problem before they were changed but I'd like to think it is something I can fix without having to replace.

Crysis also will freeze (for much longer) during movies and at seemingly random points at play.

nVidia Geforce msi 8600gt
msi K9AGM3 (dunno which model, could use some help with that too, lol)
AMD Athlon x2 3200+ dual core
2gb RAM
240gb HDD

Nothing is overclocked

If you need anymore info feel free to ask. I'll be glad to be rid of this
