so ive asked this before but dont think i was able to describe it well enough. essentially there will be times while playing games that my fps will plummet for a second every second. it will just go from 50 to 2 to 50 to 2 and etc... i couldn't figure it out so i downloaded msi afterburner to see what was going on. (the game right now is bioshock infinite.

as you can see my core clock is actually jumping between 900 and 200. whats weird is there doesnt seem to be a trigger. my temps are acceptable (this happens even when i first launch the game on a cold pc) as well as it doesn't matter how intense a certain scene is it just starts for no reason (even if im just sitting in a game menu). few notes:
-My drivers are fully updated (this happens across the past 5 or so updates)
-This happens regardless of settings (ultra or low, doesnt matter)
- ive use geforce experience to optimize game settings with no difference
-overclocked, stock clocked, or under clocked makes no difference
-happens on mos games but not all
essentially how ive been dealing with it is ill reboot, and if it still happens reboot again until it doesn't. naturally very annoying.
i believe its a software problem but if you guys think otherwise let me know im pretty stumped. also i was asked this last time so, my pc is clean (from dust i mean) its a new pc but i blew some air in there just in case.
Specs:
hp dv6-7000 laptop
i7-3820
gt 650m switchable graphics 2gb gddr5
750gb hybrid hdd/ssd
16gb ram
1080p display (if it matters)
