Graphics stutter after a few hours of gaming?

Hi all,

Not had this new rig that long and I've just got back into gaming and noticed after a few hours of gaming, my graphics sometimes stutter for no reason - Almost like something is loading in the background, slowing them down.

I've also noticed that sometimes when I ALT+TAB out of a game, Windows is complaining and is telling me to disable something so that Windows Aero can run properly?

Got the following setup ;

i5, GTX 570, 4GB Samsung RAM and a SSD

Any idea's what could be causing this? I did, about an hour ago, restart my computer and It's not stuttered since?

Many thanks guys,
 
Possibly a memory leak somewhere. You tend not to see any problem with those until the system's been running for a while. Check that nothing unusual is starting up automatically, and close down anything you don't need running.
 
At the moment, I've only played WOW at lengths so I've only seen it in that game. It's an odd one for sure as it ends really smooth all the time!
