What other games are you playing ? Just curious.

Also did you run a hardware check on your computer to see if anything is off ?

    I play Skyrim, Dishonored, Tomb Raider, Sleeping Dogs, Sniper Elite 3, The Walking Dead, Dragon Age, Minecraft and a few others. All of my hardware is running fine.

    But yeah I've just decided to wait until Sims 4 is released, no point risking my system for a game that I won't play again in a couple months.
