So I got some new hardware for my PC yesterday, installed it and now I’m having random stutters both in game and out. Whole thing freezes, sound/video/input. Apparently my mic sounds worse in mumble than it did before, but that might be me not tweaking the sound card settings.

Parts which haven’t changed:
ASUS M4A89GTDPRO/USB3
AMD Phenom II Black Edition x4 955
4GB OCZ RAM
Powercolor ATI Radeon HD 5770 1GB
Antec True Power 550W Modular PSU

New/Switched Parts
500GB Seagate HDD – Used to be my main, now running as a 2nd drive
2x Western Digital Caviar Black 500GB – Running in RAID0 128kb Stripe Size. Now my main Hard Drive with Windows installed.
Asus Xonar DX, PCI-E Sound Card – Replaces a Creative X-Fi Music
Sweex LW312 300MBPS – Replaces a USB Wireless stick

Running Windows 7 x64, Latest Drivers for everything, using correct Asus RAID drivers.

CPU 1 seems to have more load on it than the others, can’t remember seeing that before.

Also my net keeps dropping out, fml :)

can you describe what happens with sound when it starts to stutter/freeze

if that cpu usage is outside of game then u got probs with drivers, most likely raid/sata or chipset

That was with TF2 idling in the background.
Problem is resolved – seems there was interference between my Wireless Card and Graphics Card. Wireless card out, dongle back in, everything’s perfect now :)
