Sudden stutters

I have recently started experiencing stutters in the meter as well as graphically, this just popped up out of the blue. I am wondering if these Internet speeds are ok:

Ping: 1 ms
Download; 94.59 Mbps
Upload: 94.85 Mbps

Is it not a bit odd that the upload is a bit faster than the DL? Not tested in a long time but I seem to recall upload was always slower.

Thanks in advance

IT DON'T SEEM RIGHT FOR YOUR upload to be faster than the download
and I would not think you should not have any issues with the download speed you are posting. could this be happening when someone else is hosting you?
I just ran a speed test and all I am running is 25mbts and I never have any issues what so ever when I am hosting.
sometimes in MP when others are hosting I do have issues but that is only from folks across the pond or of very long distance from me.

I have figured out the problem. Could not understand why it happened so suddenly, wondering if I had done something different. Then I remembered, the only thing I had recently done is that I created a slideshow folder with a bunch of high def pix that would alternate as my BG pix on my monitors. I had it set to alternate every 60 seconds. I disabled the slide show and stutters stopped. Mystery solved.

Great news! Glad you found it so quickly. Sliders still giving me fits. No consistency so figuring out why is baffling. Only thing that seems to work, at least now, is to change my wired mouse which I have 4 different models just to help with sliders.

A good solution for any gamer, glad you discovered it on your machine. I personally have recommended to all my gamer clients not to have a rotating background. Anything that steals system resources during gaming can effect an HD3D game.

I also recommend to everyone to reduce Windows Visuals effects. For very low end computer go to "Advanced System Settings" and click on "Best Performance" Higher end machines are a mix and match of custom visual effects. This is how I have mine setup.

Is it better to play with a wired mouse or cordless to reduce stutters?
