Video playback and image rendering often choppy and slow on a fast computer? Can't seem to locate the problem. Run Malwarebytes for anti-virus. No viruses found. Dell Precision T7500 16 cores (2.39 Ghz) 24 GB RAM Windows 7 64 bit Any suggestions?
Run a PC benchmark test to see where the bottleneck is. One of the many choices: http://www.passmark.com/products/pt.htm Your listed specs do not include a graphic card. That thing makes a lot of difference in image/video rendering.
Try using VLC media player? Check process SVCHOST there are many but if 1 is 800mb or more and increasing for no reason, then end task it, if that sorts likely a route kit, try Unhackme.com . Also START RUN Msconfig remove things from the startup you don't need.
Sounds like either a video driver issue or video acceleration is turned off. I guarantee you your hardware is perfectly capable here.
Thank you Running 1 x NVIDIA Quadro 4000 card. Passmark Rating: 2070 Some of the video card tests couldn't be done. DirectX 11 wasn't supported. The screen resolutions weren't supported? Not sure. Perhaps this is an old card.
Not much power needed to play a movie, you've got some damn adware/spyware/bloatware taking over your CPU's most likely. My Mouse was barely able to move earlier on, restarted it same, spybot fixed it thankfully, very annoying.
What was your fps (frames per second) rate while playing video as part of running the performance test?
Go here: http://www.thewindowsclub.com/hardware-acceleration-windows-7 Now make sure your hardware acceleration isn't set to anything but full.
Thank you. Ran unhackme.com. No malicious viri found. Downloaded and using VLC media player. Will chime in later on performance. No SVCHOST processes running. Will keep an eye on it. Msconfig already pared down to bare bones on startup. Cudos
