Phenom x2 555 + HD5770 + 4GB RAM and i get <10fps from time to time. and i only played on window mode. wtf?
any cure to this madness?

drivers updated. no virus. i am a IT person btw so most regular do's and dont's i've already adhere to ... hmm
lag only for Diablo3 zzz

yea trying to track if i have any background service running. any tool to recommend or windows task manager good enuf? lol
yea i get sudden spike, sometimes for like 5 seconds . i see my msi afterburner fps counter drop below 10

i felt it more in D3 ... i can play new CoD games with almost max settings and i rarely get such spike. i cant imagine D3 being more taxing than those FPS. im not even playing D3 at max .... i get spikes even when i set to everything lowest ...

thanks for all the tips. leaning towards hdd read lag. will try the simpler tips b4 investing on a 16gb thumbs

not connection for sure. I can tell apart system lag vs internet lag internet lag usually results in rubberband-ing

did some analysis. it appears that the HDD read spike correlates with my stuttering issue. perhaps i will give the 16gb thumbs trick a try.
