Is my Logitech g510s dysfunctional or are they just crappy keyboards?

THE PROBLEM - Whilst holding down keys there are frequent stutters, which happen every two or three seconds and last anywhere from a fraction of a second to a second and a half. What is a stutter? If I'm holding down "W" to make my character move forward, my character will stop walking randomly and continue when the stutter ends.

INFORMATION - This is a USB 2.0 microphone connected to a USB 2.0 port. I have tested this in Skyrim, Crysis 2, Call of Duty Ghosts, and wordpad. It does not only happen to "W," but to every key. I do have the latest device drivers. This did not happen with my previous keyboard, nor does anything of the sort happen to my new mouse.

WHAT I WANT - I am looking for suggestions on what may be the problem, or perhaps someone confirming that these keyboards are crap. If nobody helps me to correct this problem by this evening I shall return it under the assumption that the keyboards are crap and purchase a different one.

EPILOGUE - Thanks in advance for your help!

Update:

THINGS I FORGOT - I am using Windows 7, this computer is very powerful and only a few months old, the keyboard is roughly 15 minutes old. Eh... That might be everything,

Update 2:

MIKEL - It is connected directly to the computer.

    If you have the Keyboard connect at a HUB instead of directly to the computers USB port the stutters are caused by the computer searching for connections.

    I've been using Logitech gaming keyboard and Mouse for years.
