    Windows 8: Multiplayer Issues
    « on: March 21, 2013, 09:11:08 AM »
    Quick Rundown: Never had a problem with my rig in general, i was running windows 7 and have installed windows 8. Ever since the install all of a sudden i cant play any online FPS games, it is choppy and looks as if i am lagging but im not because as before my ping is amongst the lowest. Is this router related, has anyone experienced this? I am at a loss, any help would be appreciated.

    System:
    Windows 8 64-bit
    Intel Core i7 3.5GHz
    8.00 GB DDR3
    EX58-UD5 (Socket 1366)
    Radeon HD 7870 OC

    Did you re-install ALL Win 8 drivers for that rig ? ?

      Yes all drivers are up to date. Its a microsoft thing i guess, something always has to go wrong with their products just the way it goes.

      Post a link to where you obtained the Win8 drivers...

      The original post for some reason doesn't mention the game(s) in question.
