My PC plays games at around 60+ FPS but then drops to 20 FPS.

GTX 770, AMD FX 8320, 8GB g skill ram. Nothing over clocked, shouldnt be any bottlenecking. So, a little bit of story, the first game I downloaded on my new PC was BF4. It was amazing, getting 70+ on ultra! Turned off PC, went to bed. Woke up the next day, playing again at 70+ FPS but about 5 minutes later, it dropped to 20 FPS for around 6 seconds, then back to 70. It keeps happening every 5 minutes, but every time it happens more and more often and the frame rate gets worse and worse. It does this with BF3, Next Car Game, Far Cry 3, Shadow Warrior, Red Faction. Strangely, it doesn't do it for Rust, or Any of the armas, it does for 3. I've parked cores, un-installed drivers and re-installed drivers, got new heatsink, and nothing has worked. CPU speed does go down when these drops occur

I don't think its over heating, it stays in the 40's, sometimes 50's
