    Remember last time i had a thread saying my P8Z68-v pro mobo had issues?
    I took the board back and the seller tested that both my i5 2500K and the board was faulty
    and i go a refund..with a working board and cpu.

    But now I'm experiencing random lag issues in windows 7, the lag comes randomly, once the lag occurs my applications like msn and i cant surf although there are no signs of network error in the network icon, and the lag can be felt greatly when i move my mouse, it lags for 1-2sec before moving to the point i pointed it and i noticed that cpu usage was around 10-30% during the lag but when i'm surfing normally the cpu only runs at 1-8%

    Can someone help me with this problem? is it hard drive
    here is my spec
    Intel Core i5 2500K
    Asus P8Z68-V PRO
    Corsair XMS3 1600mhz 2GB x4
    2x WD 320GB Caviar Blue HDD
    CM Silent Pro 700W PSU
    Thermalright Venomous X-RT Cooler
    Nvidia GeForce GTX 570

    Really getting frustrated with my pc now....suddenly miss my old i5 750 and the mobo which served me really well in the past

    EDIT: I also have a Asus Wireless card installed on the top of my gtx 570, the card cant be screwed to the side of my haf -x so i left in unscrewed...is there a possibility that the lag occurs when the card shakes a little?

    everything seems normal in task manager with system idle process having 85-99% of cpu usage

    Take out the wireless card, use the PC and see if it's that.

    Are you using Lucid Virtu and the onboard video or direct from the card?

    Is it a fresh windows install?

    Are those drives in RAID?

    I would say it's probably Virtu. Didn't Nvidia launch their own alternative?

    If you haven't installed Virtu run the display output from the 570 only

    Why can't you install it?

    Are you using set point software for any logitech mouse or keyboard? If so , update drivers and firmware. Try booting into safe mode with networking and see if you problem still occurs.. If so you know it driver and not hardware related.. PM and we'll try some other tips.

    They didn't yet.


    I don't have neither of your problems and our systems are very similar (P8Z68-V PRO, GTX570,...)

    It is just a blind shot, but did you install the latest Intel RST/Matrix Storage drivers for the SATA controllers ? Maybe your hard drives don't like LPM, like some of the SSDs.

    It is worth a try i think.

    Oh and please post your iGPU configuration screen from the UEFI (where you enable/disable Virtu).

    my settings are
    Initiate Graphic Adapter PCIE/PCI
    iGPU Memory 64M
    Render Standby Enabled
    iGPU Multi-Monitor Enabled

    tried to install vritu but it says no discrete gpu detected==

    any other ways to solve this problem...maybe sometimes later i restart then the problem goes off, then after a few days it comes back again...
