    Make sure you're using official versions of games that are patched and up to date. Check your computers for malware and remove unwanted/background programs.

    In your last thread you said that BL2 runs fine on your GF's PC?
    Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
    TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    If you are pirating games (as mentioned in your previous thread), might want to update and run your antivirus, whichever they may be. Run Malwarebytes and might as well do a Spybot and CCleaner run as well.

    Press CTRL ALT DEL, and see if anything is chewing resources in your task manager.
