Hey everybody, this would be my first post here 
Issue: A few games I recently purchased drops to what I'm assuming is near 0 FPS for a very short time. I began timing the interval between drops and they were consistently 60 seconds apart each time.
I've been having this issue with Far Cry 3 and Payday 2 so far. I'm not sure what the deal is but the problem doesn't arise in Titanfall, StarCraft II, Bioshock Infinite, Skyrim. Not sure what Far Cry 3 and Payday 2 have in common but its driving me a little crazy trying to figure this out.
System Specs:
MB: Asus Z87 Deluxe LGA 1150
CPU: i7-4770K 3.50 GHz
GPU: ASUS GTX 770
RAM: (2x) 8 GB DDR3
PSU: Cooler Master 1000W
SSD: Samsung 840 Pro Series
Drivers: GeForce 337.88 Driver
I've tried changing the settings for both FC3 and PD2 in numerous combinations. It doesn't appear to be a V-Sync issue. As recommended in other posts, I turned off PhysX (just in case), MSAA Antialiasing, and shut my Antivirus down and I'm still getting lag the same exact way. Bringing the settings to their lowest possible in FC3 causes slight improvement at first, then continues to drop one minute apart once again. I've heard people using the GTX770 can run Far Cry 3 on ultra settings and get minimal issues.
Has anyone else experienced a problem like this? Can anybody help me get started troubleshooting/fixing my problem? I'm starting to suspect its a temperature issue, or defective hardware (all purchased 6 months ago).
