it Sounded like CPU froze momentarily, do you have a something taking up too much memory?

no, not at all.

 

i've got a good CPU too, 4770k 4.5

 

it's not spiking when it happens either.

You said it was just via youtube alone, assuming you got a updated version of the flash or browser etc..

 

Other than that browser are you using?& have you tried it on a different browser?

[drcypher]

i'll try, okay, so i read that it's a possible SSD issue. I just ran that samsung restoration software, and i havn 't heard it so far...

1.Disable hardwareacceleration in your browser, google it how to.

2.Remove your overclock -test if it works normal-, if not overclock again. (and remove your ram oc, too. set to 1600mhz or lower)

3.Remove your DAC and test if it does these sounds with analog(connected to your mainboard), test with headphones.

4.If you use your onboard digital output(realtek) open the realtek hd audio manager, change to 24Bits, 48000hz (Studioquality)

 

5.thank me later.

6.THANK ME NOW!!

 

hope I could help you, good luck!

Maybe a bad OC, try with default clock speed
