So I just got this new computer about 1 week ago. And as soon as I started playing games I noticed that the performance is not smooth. It feels like the gameplay is choppy/stuttery when I move my camera around. This happens in every game even in some games like Minecraft or Runescape and it is really annoying. I instantly thought that the problem was the graphics card so I ran Windows assessment test.
And it turns out that my graphics card scored 7.9 in both categories. But when the test was running I noticed a really strange sound coming out of my graphics card which was probably coil whine. I wanted to do the test again but only for my graphics card so I opened up cmd and ran the following command: winsat graphicsformal. When the test was running I could also see white flickering lines that appeared on my monitor. This only happened when the graphics card was using directx. I've also attached a picture with the results which are in my opinion not that great compered to some other older graphics cards.
I thought that the issue was Directx so I downloaded and older version of it and installed it on my PC. I re-ran the test but nothing changed.
So now I really don't know whats the problem with my graphics card. If anyone can help me solve this issue I would really appreciate it .
