Just put together a new computer about at month ago. gtx 690 intel i7 3770k 16gb ram my problem is that my skyrim initially ran great, but now gets periods of weird heavy lag, stutters a lot, and artifacting. i know it isn't mod related, as it pretty clearly looks like hardware problems. The computer acts like it is overclocked and therefore overheating and artifacting. But temps are not that high? absolut max i have seen graphics card is 74c. CPU max is about 45 i think. I have a lot of cooling and nothing is overclocked. Anyone have an idea what can be causing this? PLEASE PLEASE HELP sorry about my english EDIT: And it is getting worse and worse. More and more artifacting and lag. Someting seems broken?
