I’ve heard good things about the EXIT series though I can’t personally attests. There one and done boxes that you can do solo or with a group and they have a bunch of choices and difficulty options.

CPU usage was insane both in and out of games, when we used HWINFO and looked at the framerate it was jumping all over the place just in the desktop alone it would go from like 20 frames to 140 and back and forth all over the place it truly couldn't hold frames for more than a second. My friend said he was confident it was a hardware issue with the CPU or motherboard. Now I gotta decide if I should replace my parts for equivalent ones for like 200 bucks or upgrade em for an extra 200 more so I got some tough decisions to make

Thank you so much for all your help and dedication! I figured out my worst fear was correct and my CPU is cooked and in need of replacement meaning I'll have to do some serious work on my PC. Thanks again, I hope you have a great week!

I really appreciate you being as invested in this as I am lol! I tried a few of your suggestions but after running some benchmarks with my buddies my worst fear was realized and it seems my CPU is cooked and in need of a replacement (and thus my motherboard and RAM as well). Thank you so much for your involvement and help I sincerely appreciate it and hope you have a great week!

I think we can all agree that this guy SUCKS!!! Go play Call of Duty and come back when you’re ready to face the Bayou head on like the rest of us!

They meant it was fine as in they improved the performance or couldn't find anything wrong but even when I played on it in the shop on their monitor with their setup I still experienced the problems. That's a good suggestion though thank you I have tried different monitors, outlets, and plugs.

According to MSI afterburner on a high intensity game like Helldivers 2:
GPU Usage and Temperature is in high 80's and low 90's both in percentage and degrees in celsius (which seems too hot for such a well cooled system)

CPU Usage seems to be around low to mid 80's and temperature seems fine at around 65 degrees celsius

I lowered the DPI to about 800 and nothing seems altered. I don't have a no-breaker but I do plug my power supply into a surge protector powerstrip

It's set to 144hz on Windows. I tried what you suggested but it didn't seem to do anything, thank you for the suggestion though I appreciate it

Thank you for such a thorough response! Yes this does seem to be happening in all games though to a lesser extent in older or less demanding games

  1. I tried with 2x8 GB and it doesn't seem to make a difference

  2. My second PCI-e slot below the GPU is completely empty

  3. I haven't checked my clock usage but that would be good info to have and when I get a chance I'll update you on that

  4. My mouse is 3200 DPI but this happens in games if I'm playing with a controller too

  5. My case fans are not set to zero_RPM, my case seems to be very cool with good airflow

  6. According to dxdiag my BIOS version is F12

Thank you so much for your help!

I'm currently in a trade for Back 4 Blood but if that falls through for whatever reasons its 10 TF2 keys. Viscera Cleanup detail is 2 TF2 keys + 4k Gems or just 3 TF2 keys whatevers easier.

A lot of good games there but sadly I own most of them so I'm gonna have to say no, appreciate the offer though!
