So whenever I play World At War, Alien Swarm, or Call of Duty 4, they have this chopiness. I had Vsync turned off. I have Windows 7 Ultimate. This happens throughout the whole time I play these games.It gets choppy, like the framerate is perfectly normal and smooth, but about every half a second it almost stays on the same frame for maybe 1 5th of a second, this may not seem like much, and the times are estimated, but this gets very annoying.

Ok so my max temps while playing WAW for my CPU was 70c, max temp for my GPU was 55c. I have the 10.7 ATI drivers, the most updated one. Is there a part in my computer that makes it Choppy? What can I do to fix this? It isn't choppy on Call of Duty 2 with max settings, or The Witcher on medium settings. But I even tried out the worst possible settings on World at War and it was still choppy. Help please?

I just got this CPU heatsink:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835200026, because someone said that it could be CPU throttling causing my micro sluttering.
