When i play video on my computer, the voume studders. I am wondering if this one part of the reason. the lack of memory? Also sometimes the video card studderes or stuck on a frame for 1 sec. like a break in the screen. should i upgrade for 16GB of memory. This is DDR3

I doubt memory would cause those problems.

8gb is more than enough for gaming

i do alot of gaming but also video stuff. im not going into it but i have alkot of software and videos.plus i have little memory free. When i run A game, i can't even handling watching a video or listen to a video. If i turn all games off then i get little studder but there are still alot.

I used to have something similar when I played games, watched movies and listened to music(on my old computer), and it gradually started to get worse over 3 months or so.

What happened was, every 5 seconds or so it would pause for a few frames (audio did as well) and then resume back to normal.

The problem wasn't noticeable when web browsing or anything, just multimedia stuff.

 

When I wiped it and put windows 8 on it, it fixed it.

I didn't really try very hard to address the problem itself since I was going to put a new OS on it anyways.

So that's all I know on how to fix it.

It could be your HDD causing that. You should defrag it to be sure. Also thats pretty high CPU usage for just watching videos.
