Hey guys, I have a 3930k@stock, 8GB of 1600 mhz Ram and 2 gtx670s in sli. the funny thing is in world of warcraft i get like 40-70 FPS on ultra and when i'm in a crowded place it dips down to 30, it's very annoying. In BF4 i'm playing on ultra 1920x1080p (same for wow) i get 100-140 fps for like 5 minutes then it dips down to 50-60 for the rest of the match and matches. So i decided to monitor my GPU and CPU in case you're thinking it might be throttling or something, it's not the CPU max usage i've seen playing BF4 was 47% on core 3 and the temps were in the low 40s. so it's not a CPU bottleneck as I assume most of you are thinking because WOW and BF are cpu intensive. For GPUs, there is also no throttling the highest temp on card was 63 Celsius and usage was at 98% for card 2 it was at something like 47% usage. I can't wrap my head around what's causing this if someone could tell me how this is happening I would very much appreciate it.
