In the last week I am having major issues while playing games or watching streams, sometimes even youtube is giving me trouble. I have tried to run virus scans, malware scans, and defragmentations. Basically everything I can think of. The last time something similar to this happened to me I replaced my power supply thinking that it was too small and it fixed the problem.
Now I am wondering if if could be another component in my computer.
Specs:
i5 2500k
EVGA Geforce 560 ti
16 gbs 1600mhz ram (I know this is overkill)
650W corsair bronze series PSU
I cannot remember what my motherboard is, though it is a gigabyte somwhere in the 140 dollar range.
I also have two monitors though turning one off while playing doesnt seem to have an affect.
Could it be something like my graphics card has gone bad? I have only had it for maybe 5 months. Everything that I play recommends the highest settings possible but they arent working I currently have starcraft 2 at medium graphics and it is lagging. Also could it be my internet? Whenever I run speed tests though it says I am fine. Any help is very much appreciated.
