Good point.

Well, SSD it is then, this should fix the remaining lag.

I doubt it. What game are you lagging in and in which parts? Have you updated to the latest NVIDIA GPU driver update? SSD for gaming is good when loading. For example, when you are playing Crysis 1, while loading the mission, the load will be way faster than an HDD, but except that, the difference between a HDD and SSD in-game would be minimal. Of course though, an SSD is very good for running Windows 7 on, as everything you do will feel much faster.

It's possible if your previous HDD has some problems that a new hard drive would fix the issue. But 99 out of 100 times, an SSD will not fix lag in a game.

Yeah I doubt it too.

I got reminded, when I installed the upgrade, I used the DVD that the motherboard came with to install the Realtek Audio Driver, because I was too lazy because of their slow server. Any specific way I need to uninstall it, and install the new version?

You mean the NVIDIA GPU Update?

Well, first of all go here What's New - GeForce and download the latest NVIDIA Driver. Then, uninstall all NVIDIA drivers and software you have. Once you have done that, download and install Driver Sweeper. http://www.phyxion.net/Driver-Sweepe...Version-3-2-0/

Restart and boot up into Safe Mode, then launch Driver Sweeper. Tick all NVIDIA things to scan for. Once its done scanning, delete all the results.

Now restart back into normal Windows, and install the latest NVIDIA driver.

I need to do this myself too :). Off to it I guess...

Nah I ment the Realtek, you know the Audio Driver.

So I also managed to install all the extensions to the Nvidia Driver, uninstalled the Realtek and replaced it with the new one.
Seems to have made a difference. However, I managed to select "Skip Frames" to "Off" in the game. That'll make it force to show all frames. The other game is still in the lag, maybe it's a software bug.

Nothing wrong. I'll get my SSD sometime anyway. *giggle*

By the way, I noticed a couple of vertical lines on the "Starting Windows" screen. It comes between "Starting Windows" and the rest. So when it switches from it, a couple of vertical lines are there.

Don't know if it's normal or not.

What game are you playing? And did you update your GPU driver to the latest?

Terraria and Bastion.

Yes, I just managed to update all the drivers for my card.
