Hello, I would like to know if anyone has a solution to my problem.
Pc specs:
i7 4770k @stock
2x gtx 780ti @stock
12gb 1600mhz ram
128gb ssd
1tb storage drive
1000w power supply 80+ gold corsair

Alright, I have a wierd issue where my fps drops drasticly in games, bf4 for example, I'm playing at 130fps and then suddenly it dropps down to 50-70fps randomly without anything intenese going on ingame, This happens when i watch youtube videos aswell. If i'm watching a video of someone playing a game at 60fps the video drops frames for abit then it's fine again but after like 5min it happens again, please help me with this issue, I can't wrap my head around this shit..... :(
 
Solution
this drop in gpu usage is a bug in NVidia's current drivers. its been around for a while and effecting a lot of people with 780/ti/titan/black cards. the only way to resolve this is to use 331.82 or 331.93 drivers

i have a h80i cooler for my cpu so the temp never goes above 65c at full load. So that's not the problem

I don't have any update/scan running, I did try using the perfoverlay.drawgraph 1 in bf4 and the cpu did spike like hell when the fps drop happened.

I played some more bf4 and i can see a huge spike in both the cpu and the gpu with perfoverlay.drawgraph 1 when the fps drop happens, Is there something i can do about this?

the temps are great, gpu1=70c max and gpu 2= 65c max and the cpu never goes above 60c ._.

 
Go to Origin and disable "use origin in game" setting. This apparently solved the issue for many people in BF4. As for the issue with other apps as well, this might be due to IRQ conflict. Try disabling components you don't use in BIOS (like serial/parallel ports, onboard stuff you don't need) and try again.

i came across something really wierd while testing, When the lag happens the gpu usage drops down to 0% wich means they turn off completly and then go back up? Is there some way i could fix this or?
