Was playing dirt 2 for the first time in a while and noticed what felt like HDD stutter, where it hadn't existed previously. I'm running a 5770 with the 10.6 drivers (hoping it's this) with an average fps of 45ish with most settings maxed and 4xMSAA. Ran HD tune on both drives to see if they were the issue and got these results below. My steam folder is on the F1 1TB, and the OS is on the 500GB F3. Are those low dips on the F3 anything to be worried about or just the OS interfering with the benchmark?
EDIT: just ran some in-game benches with fraps and my fps never dropped below 36 min 54 max 45 avg, but the stutter is so bad it's like playing a laggy server. CPU usage is only around 60%. HDD or drivers?
