Why do some games micro freeze.

Just throwing some ideas out there (and I am most probably wrong), but have you tried your mouse with / without drivers?


Don't forget to try DDU :

Another thought is you could link this thread to the Storage Drives and / or General Hardware sub forums. A member there called 'Stulid' is very helpful. Worth a shot. :)

This particular mouse (Razer Abyssus) comes w/o drivers, but i downloaded something that i thought was drivers off razer and just turned out to be nothing related, even then they both produced the same problem.

Something i can say is, some games have it whilst others dont, i know theres suppose to be momentary pauses in games being saved/loaded but it seems like its amplified by having a 120fps count.

I will uninstall all my drivers and give it another shot, if not i might need to reinstall windows again, but id rather not after just having done it recently and not fixing the problem :(
 
I believe this problem may not actually be related to my rig.

I went to a friends today, and his does the exact same thing on 5/6 games i tested, under the exact same situations, and he has a little bit better of a rig than me and a better processor and much better cooling and more ram.

So who knows? Maybe im just noticing stuff no one notices.
 
I wanna thank everyone who contributed to this thread in order for me to find a solution, but fret not, i've discovered it isnt my end.

A lot of problems im having with specific games are known problems, after looking into it more i've managed to reduce it in most of these games (all be it not perfectly, but then again if i dont lock my fps i'll notice it less.

Again, thanks everyone for the suggestions, they really did help.

Just incase anyone wants to know, the problems i found with each specific game, mainly TF2 and Dota 2 is these are known issues, these random micro pauses in both those games, TF2 was mostly people joining and leaving the server, sometiems swapping teams, and DotA 2 was if someone reconnected or a new particle came into view, apparently these are issues that are known.

Borderlands i got working better, still yet to discover a fix for Dishonoured, im just glad its not my PC! :D
