is this normal while gaming?
am I supposed to turn off my antivirus or something?
>>59929206
install gentoo
yeah it's normal if you're using avast hahahahahhaha
Check to make sure it's on a strict scanning and database updating schedule which doesn't match your gaming time. Otherwise, yeah, you'll have to turn it off.
>actually using Avast
This is why God left us.
Enjoy Intel's StutterLakeā¢ goy!

disabling it is pointless, AV barely uses resources
>>59929206
>he needs an antivirus in 2017
Can you guys just answer the question seriously?
>>59929206
Your HD is maxing out at low speed, that's bad
probably old, fragmented and with bad sectors, consider replacing it
>>59929269
It is pretty old, 6+ years.
Is this where the OS is installed?
Would I have to buy a new windows OS CD?
>Avast
>Chrome
>Win 10
>>59929310
let me guess, you want me to use ubuntu or linux, opera or netscape and no av?
>>59929301
>buy
>windows
>>59929245
It shouldn't be using the "disk access" resource at all while he's gaming. Let it do shit with the disk some other time.
make sure XBOX DVR isnt on
>>59929468
I dont have an xbox
Windows 10 comes with the best antivirus. Don't know why anyone would buy that stuff anymore.

No, but you might have the XBox gaming Windows 10 app which has a "save the last X minutes of gaming footage" feature.

>2017
>avast
Go back to somewhere else.
>>59929206
how new?
>>59929269
>fragmented
This an filesystem-level, has nothing to do with the drive itself.
>bad sectors
How did you conclusion without seeing the drive's SMART data? You're spewing bullshit
>>59929505
How do I shut it off/remove it?
>>59929591
REEE BRAINLET GET OFF MY BOARD
is this reddit/r/trollme?
>>59929571
drives with loads of bad sectors get slow since it keeps trying to read/write on corrupted parts until it skipt it, skyrocketing the latency and reducing the overall bandwidht
>>59929859
I don't think you understand fully what you're talking about.
>>59929876
i quite do.
>>59929889
i forgot to add that it doesnt have anything to do with windows 10 so called "hdd b/w %" which usually mean fuckall
>>59929412
>Ubuntu or Linux
Jesus, are you new to computers or something?
The Apple MacBook Pro with Retina Display doesn't have this problem.
>>59930028
Why do people who use Linux not know about computers?
>>59930028
Says the facebook shitstain

>using antivirus
>having chrome open while gaming
I bet it is underclocking your GPU and you don't even know it yet
Just pay the idiot tax and get a mac or something dude, Windows is obviously way too complicated for you.
