Hey guys, I seriously need help on an issue. I have been having some sharp spikes (down) in GPU usage across a few games, and evidently, it's mostly games where there are a lot of pop-ins, or the map is made as you go, like the forest, watch dogs, minecraft, etc. It's looking like this: http://prntscr.com/3p3r5p I did not know until now that it was dropping all the way to friggin zero. The part I say to ignore was because that was when i was loading a new part of a map in The Forest and it's going to fluctuate because it's loading. As you guys can see, this happens a lot. In watch dogs, it happens even more often, every few seconds, especially while driving. It's making me absolutely fucking insane that across a bunch of games i love playing, it freezes up for a 1/5th of a second, every few seconds. Why the hell is this happening in the middle of the game constantly? Faulty GPU part? Hard drive screwing up? I need help.
