When I'm in a game, my FPS will drop randomly from whatever it's at to about 10 FPS for about 15-20 seconds and it would occur after 2-10 minutes, depending on the game. The ping would be fine though so it's not the internet. The only time it would drop is if I set a max FPS in the game, but I can't set that for some games. The thing is that it didn't use have FPS drops until about a month or so and I didn't really change anything.
I've tried :
- Updating driver
- Cleaning tower
- Defrag
- Avast Quick Scan
- Removing some startup program and programs running in background
------------------------------------------------
PC Specs :
- Windows 7
- Intel (R) Core i5-2320 CPU @ 3.00 GHz (4CPUs)
- 8GB RAM
- NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT 4GB
- 460.00W PSU

In other posts with a similar problem, people usually had a heating problem. My friend also had a similar problem and he solved it with replacing the power supply. Any help is greatly appreciated!
