So I've had this problem for a while now ere when I play BF3 after say 10 minutes my GPU usage drops low making my game have extreme lag. It also happens in other games such as Skyrim and Dead Rising 2. My computer is fine at running the games, I get about 60 - 80 FPS on Ultra while playing BF3 but I don't understand why this happens :( 

This is a screen shot of my results on MSI Afterburner displaying my GPU Usage from idle to make use (Playing BF3) These 50% drops in GPU Usage cause major FPS drop dropping it down to about 20FPS.

My CPU runs at about 45C and my GPU is at about 40C. I'm not sure what my PSU runs at tho.
