Weird stuttering/dropouts while gaming

[zipel]

Hello, I've been trying to fix my problem since few months, viewed tons of forum threads but yet couldn't really find a solution. Mainly I play CS:GO and its really annoying. The problem are micro freezes/sound dropouts/screen tearing. Even though my fps are fine (150-300) something is wrong. I've tried a lot and I mean a lot things to fix my problem. Everything is smooth on empty server (I play on 144hz) but under heavy load everything just breaks.

My specs:
intel i5-3470 3.2
Geforce gtx 750ti msi
Asus P8B75-V
Ballistix Tactical DDR3-1600 CL8 - 8GB
Corsair VS 550W
SSD 128gb
HD 1tb
Windows 7 x64

Also I'm adding results from LatencyMon (few mins of playing).

CONCLUSION
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Your system appears to be having trouble handling real-time audio and other tasks. You are likely to experience buffer underruns appearing as drop outs, clicks or pops. One or more DPC routines that belong to a driver running in your system appear to be executing for too long. One problem may be related to power management, disable CPU throttling settings in Control Panel and BIOS setup. Check for BIOS updates.
LatencyMon has been analyzing your system for 0:06:37 (h:mm:ss) on all processors.

CPU SPEED
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Reported CPU speed: 320 MHz
Measured CPU speed: 1 MHz (approx.)

Note: reported execution times may be calculated based on a fixed reported CPU speed. Disable variable speed settings like Intel Speed Step and AMD Cool N Quiet in the BIOS setup for more accurate results.

WARNING: the CPU speed that was measured is only a fraction of the CPU speed reported. Your CPUs may be throttled back due to variable speed settings and thermal issues. It is suggested that you run a utility which reports your actual CPU frequency and temperature.

MEASURED INTERRUPT TO USER PROCESS LATENCIES
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The interrupt to process latency reflects the measured interval that a usermode process needed to respond to a hardware request from the moment the interrupt service routine started execution. This includes the scheduling and execution of a DPC routine, the signaling of an event and the waking up of a usermode thread from an idle wait state in response to that event.

Highest measured interrupt to process latency (µs): 15601,680358
Average measured interrupt to process latency (µs): 2,551399

Highest measured interrupt to DPC latency (µs): 1207,341455
Average measured interrupt to DPC latency (µs): 0,688647


_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
REPORTED ISRs
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Interrupt service routines are routines installed by the OS and device drivers that execute in response to a hardware interrupt signal.

Highest ISR routine execution time (µs): 119,520938
Driver with highest ISR routine execution time: dxgkrnl.sys - DirectX Graphics Kernel, Microsoft Corporation

Highest reported total ISR routine time (%): 0,335451

Total time spent in ISRs (%) 0,421053

ISR count (execution time <250 µs): 967721

ISR count (execution time >=4000 µs): 0


_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
REPORTED DPCs
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
DPC routines are part of the interrupt servicing dispatch mechanism and disable the possibility for a process to utilize the CPU while it is interrupted until the DPC has finished execution.

Highest DPC routine execution time (µs): 1313,561875
Driver with highest DPC routine execution time: nvlddmkm.sys - NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 385.41 , NVIDIA Corporation

DPC count (execution time >=4000 µs): 0

REPORTED HARD PAGEFAULTS
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Hard pagefaults are events that get triggered by making use of virtual memory that is not resident in RAM but backed by a memory mapped file on disk. The process of resolving the hard pagefault requires reading in the memory from disk while the process is interrupted and blocked from execution.

NOTE: some processes were hit by hard pagefaults. If these were programs producing audio, they are likely to interrupt the audio stream resulting in dropouts, clicks and pops. Check the Processes tab to see which programs were hit.

Process with highest pagefault count: steam.exe

Total number of hard pagefaults 706
Hard pagefault count of hardest hit process: 246
Highest hard pagefault resolution time (µs): 425089,809688
Total time spent in hard pagefaults (%): 0,106334
Number of processes hit: 5

Basically ask me anything and thanks in advance. Cheers

Welcome to the forum.

What antivirus you have?
Did you try to disable antivirus?

I don't use antivirus, apparently.

Run this anti spyware SUPERAntiSpyware - SUPERAntiSpyware Portable Scanner

Done, deleted basically 550 chrome cookies and thats all.

Something is running on the background with high priority.
Could be windows update scanning your computer.
- Is windows up to date? Open windows update and make a manual look for updates.
- After all updates installed, disable WU and see if the issue is still there.
- Run msconfig and disable all none MS start up programs and services. Try again.

Done, nothing has changed though...

Chrome runs on the background. Did you disable on M$config?
Open a cmd window:
- Schedule a disk check - chkdsk c: /f
- run a system file check - sfc /scannow

Open a cmd window:

- run a system file check - sfc /scannow

Everything seems fine @ disk check.
Can't find Chrome on the list the only google thing that I have is google update and its off.

I had same kind of issue and it was Wupdate that had a problem and was looking for updates forever.
Sorry, can't think any other suggestion.

I feel like this could be sound related problem, what do you think? Anyway, thanks for your help.

Actually after WU game looks smoother, but microstutters are still there.

What are the temperatures of your graphics card when you are playing games?

What are the temperatures of your graphics card when you are playing games?

CSGO is a cpu heavy game so my graphic card's temperature is something about 50c.
