There's a punchline in this somewhere, but I'm being serious. Scrolling, typing, streaming, even watching downloaded content seems to produce periodic (10-20 second intervals) stutters where it just freezes for a moment to let me continue once more.
The stutter hasn't affected my time playing games, but I can't help but wonder that the stutter has something to do with my graphics card and I'm at a loss as to what to do to stop the stuttering.
It's not a stutter, your laptop is a pro-segregation war criminal with dementia
Wipe and reinstall Windows.
If that fails, wipe and install Linux.
If that fails, it's probably a hardware issue and requires component repair or replacement.
turns out it was some app designed to help me "stream faster". uninstalled lol.
There's a real possibility it might have been stealing your processor time to mine crypto.
How's your random access memory looking? Is the HD LED solid on when it jams up? You're probably running out of RAM and the OS is swapping memory pages to the pagefile on the disk (incredibly slow).
What's your RAM usage like? Check task manager to see if it's a hardware bottleneck, or there's a background process taking up a bunch of resources.
Otherwise you could try reinstalling graphics drivers.
