This is a video made by someone of the EXACT problem I'm getting in WoW: THIS VIDEO WAS NOT MADE BY ME, NOR DO THE LINKS IN THE COMMENT WORK FOR ME.
My graphics card runs WoW at like 60fps except for these lag spikes so I'm guessing it can handle the game and the graphics card not being good enough isn't the problem If i needed a repaste wouldn't the lag spike last longer? I mean i find it hard to believe my graphics card gets to the 90C or w/e it is when it throttles down to cooldown and completes it in 3 seconds Any help would be appreciated i really need to fix this problem as it's just annoying while im playing the game. Some say a repaste is necessary, some say it's the HDD from best buy, and other reasons i forget. I see this is sort of a common issue with these types of games(WoW). So I'm asking this question for myself, not lag spikes while in town, but when im taking a bunch of damage all of a sudden in arena, or when a character comes out of stealth and attacks me i get the 1-5second lag spikes.
First and foremost, yes i did read the other relatively new post about this and could not find the answer as there were only a couple of replies.
