Stuttering, Small freezes and framerate Issues

Because it is not certain those game use the same technology, so they might not have the need to read of the drive in the same way?

Giving potential causes for it. Could also be software conflicts or the alike. All games mentioned are DirectX games, so if this is a graphics issue then that does not help much in comparing them as AMFP/TDD is using OpenGL. Can try make sure to have up-to-date drivers, if using beta versions, use the latest stable. Resetting the settings in the control panels to make sure that there is no conflict with ingame options. Not using high SSAO or samples above 8x, as it does not improve the looks noticeably but is performance hungry as crazy.
