Graphic lags

Demordas · 03-08-2009, 12:38 AM

Hello, i've noticed that when i play 3D games i get strange lags just like the one here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KKMUE2h2Gs but it goes on for only about 3 min and then it is normal again. and after some time it happens again and it is really anoying. i used to think that it is becouse of the internet connection when i was playing Warhammer Online. but now when i play S.T.A.L.K.E.R. or Fallout 3 i get the same thing even if its not an online game.
and this is my PC summary:

Is this a custom build or a prebuilt system, it seems you may be missing some drivers or maybe the wrong Bios for the CPU, hard to tell without knowing what motherboard, CPU, Ram and PSU you have?

Probably not that usually shows up when the Bios does not recognize the CPU, the give away is the Xeon part which would make it a server chip if correct.

I had P3 500mhz prior to building this system.....like day and night 10 years apart.
