Game freezes for few seconds

Hello, the problem I'm  having is that the game constantly freezes for about 3-4 seconds and then I can continue playing, but this happens to me several times per session, and its really annoying.

my computer specs:
Processor: AMD Athlon II x2 255 3.1 ghz processor
Video Card: Sapphire HD 7770
Mother: GA-M68MT-Gygabite S2P
Memory: Kingston 4gs of ram (1333 mhz)


I have the version of catalyst 14.4

I've already tried lowering the graphics and turning off origin overlay, but does not work.

will there be a patch that fix this? or what can i do to solve the problem?

sorry for the poor English but I'm from Argentina and q have not found a forum in Spanish

Thanks in advance

    First thought is software interferring.  Anything from antivirus to malware to overlay programs.

    Try disabling any overlay programs like RiviaTuner, Fraps, TS overlay etc etc.  Origin in Game has issues with extra overlays.  OiG is needed for shift+F1 easy invite friends and coin shop other you can disable it to try?

    Clean Boot

    This is just throwing it out there... don't really think it'll fix anything but who knows crazy things happen.  Much of it isn't even being read/used I don't think.

    Open Notepad.
    Copy and Paste this:

    RenderDevice.ForceRenderAheadLimit 1
    PerfOverlay.DrawGraph 0
    PerfOverlay.DrawFps 1
    PostProcess.DofMethod 0
    PostProcess.BlurMethod 0
    PostProcess.DynamicAOEnable 0
    PostProcess.DynamicAOMethod 0
    Render.VSyncFlashTestEnable 0
    WorldRender.TransparencyShadowmapsEnable 0
    WorldRender.MotionBlurEnable 0
    WorldRender.MotionForceOn 0
    WorldRender.SpotLightShadowmapEnable 0
    WorldRender.SpotlightShadowmapResolution 256
    WorldRender.LightTileCsPathEnable 0
    RenderDevice.Dx11Enable 0
    RenderDevice.Dx11Dot1Enable 0
    RenderDevice.Dx11Dot1RuntimeEnable 0
    RenderDevice.VSyncEnable 0
    RenderDevice.TripleBufferingEnable 0
    GameTime.MaxVariableFps 60

    Save it as "user.cfg"

    You cannot have user.cfg.txt
    enable "View Extentions of Known File Types" from Folder Options in Control Panel

    Put it in your PvZ directory
    \\Origin Games\Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare

    *edit - You could try latest beta drive from AMD.
