<div>I'd bet that the video card is to blame. If not make sure that you are using nvidia (and not nv) for your graphics driver, and that /proc/drivers/nvidia/agp/status shows that your running the correct AGP rate. One of my friends tried to build a system on a motherboard with built-in graphics and he had the same stuttering problem. I just purchased a GeForce 6200 LE from Circuit City about three months ago and it works great @ 1080P. Its passive heatsink is much quieter than the old 5700 Ultra's I was using before.</div>

<div>It won't cost anything to try, but if that doesn't work then you definitely need more ram or a proper video card.</div>

I got pauses now and then that seemed to have gone away now that I've<br>put mysql on a separate machine (I didn't have a spare drive to<br>install). You've already taken care of the disk issue so I would<br>
suggest adding some ram in case as well. I'm running the blootubelite<br>theme (the lighter version) because blootube-wide just took up too<br>much resources for me. I'll be upgrading to 2GB ram eventually.<br><br>
One other thing to look at, besides ram and video, is tuning MySQL. I<br>was getting very frequent pauses, and tuning the mysql params (search<br>this list) to increase caches , buffers, etc. made a major difference.<br>
I still got infrequent pauses, and finally gave in to putting sql on<br>a separate spindle. But if you're getting it a lot this could be one<br>potential problem.<br>_______________________________________________<br>
