Northern hemisphere is winter atm, Southern hemisphere is summer.

Check the usb3 header on the motherboard if its plugged in properly. If it still doesn't work, it might be the usb 3 ports on the case that is faulty.

Thanks, i will update this when i finish by uploading photos.

I need some tips on painting the interior of the case, i bought plastidip as a spray paint. Any tips Thanks.

Dont use speccy to monitor temperatures. Download HwMonitor and check if the temperature is the same. http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html

BF4 uses more resources than Unigen Valley. Try the power supply in another computer see if that computer will shut down while running BF4. If it does shutdown, then power supply is the culprit. Corsair Tx power supply has 5 year warranty: http://www.corsair.com/en-us/support/warranty

Run every on stock settings, dont overclock. Try running BF4 on stock settings.

It seems that its the graphics or hard drive. Maybe try installing the video card in another computer ( E.g. your 2nd computer or friends computer) and you borrow his graphics card and he borrows your graphics card. If no stutters occurs for a few days thats means its the video card. If there is still stutters, it might be probably the motherboard PCI express Slot.

Try running using integrated graphics? Maybe try one ram stick at a time?

Where do you live? If you live in the USA, you can buy from Newegg. You can just buy a new cpu such as "AMD FX 6300" and a cheap motherboard AMD FX 6300 $125.40 http://www.newegg.com/global/au/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113286&cm_re=fx_6300-_-19-113-286-_-Product Asus M5A78L-M LX PLUS $61.55 http://www.newegg.com/global/au/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131795 Total cost is under $200 I would rather do that, then return the video card.

Are you overclocking? If you are go back to stock settings. What browser are you using? Try another browser, see if that solves the problem. What are your System specs?

Hi iosheriko, Is your monitor brand new or old? Maybe try with a different monitor? If you dont have one, plug into your tv using HDMI. Try updating the motherboard's bios, drivers and all windows updates. Gigabyte motherboard drivers ( Realtek HD Audio Dirver, Intel Management Engine Interface, Intel INF installation, Realtek LAN Driver) http://www.gigabyte.com.au/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4729#dl

That is an AMD APU (integrated graphics), that might be the cause of the bottleneck. If you want to buy a new amd cpu, what would your budget be?

Im re-using my coolermaster haf 922 case and my 2tb hard drive is less then 6 months old. Im not sure if i should buy a new monitor since its 5 years old, or just use it until it dies (LG w2343t monitor).
