GPU usage fluctuates in game

I attached a screenshot from MSI Afterburner to show what I mean (the picture shows a milder case of the norm).

My GPU usage fluctuates wildly while playing any game. It's very annoying and causes very noticeable stutters within the game. If I can get the card on a good day, it'll stay around 90% consistently and not stutter, and if not, it'll do this...more often a bad day than a good one.

I upgraded drivers because it was doing this, so I know rolling back won't help it.
So any help is really appreciated.

Hi, thanks for the responses. I'm running a Core2 Duo E6400. It's low end...for sure, but this problem has arisen only as of late.
And the game I tested this on was Arma 2. Dead Space 3 does this as well, but not Tomb Raider.
