i recently got a high end gpu and have had problems when it comes to blizzard games.
starcraft 2, heroes of the storm, wow, and diablo have caused massive lag spikes during gameplay.

system specs
i5 3570k 3.8 ghz
MSI r9 390 8g 1040mhz 1500mhz
8g 1333mhz ram
750w corsair psu bronze
hyper 212 evo air cooler.
heat temps never hit above 65C for gpu
under 55c CPU

what is the problem. gpu work load spikes from 100% to 0% often.

Nathan,

I doubt the problem is caused by "gpu work load spikes from 100% to 0% often", that's more likely a result of the GPU not being asked to do anything for some reason.

Your CPU isn't being overclocked, at least not any higher than the factory setting does for you automatically so I wouldn't worry about that. Your GPU is overclocked a little by MSI but again, I wouldn't worry about that causing any problems at this point.

There's really nothing our games share besides rack space in the various data centers they're housed in.

Can you describe the game play situations in Diablo III you're in when this occurs? Did it start with the addition of the new GPU? What GPU did you have before? Did you completely remove the old drivers with a cleaner app like http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html" class="bml-link-url2">DDU</a> before installing the new drivers?

Nathan,

i notice that there is a 500+ms latency issue going on as well.


I see you're playing on a campus. Is there any way you can use a different provider, even if it's only as a troubleshooting step? Are there any other users you know of using the same provider having the same problem?
