Every minute or so in any game I'm playing, the framerate will drop from 40-60FPS to 10-20 FPS, making gameplay impossible. During this, I ALT+TAB out to Resource Monitor, which says the CPU usage reaches 100% during the FPS drops and the Maximum Frequency drops to 50%. What could be causing this?
Here are my specs:
CPU: AMD FX-8350 4.0GHz 8-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: Corsair H90 94.0 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler
Motherboard: ASRock 990FX Extreme3 ATX AM3+/AM3 Motherboard
Memory: Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Storage: Toshiba 500GB 2.5" 5400RPM Internal Hard Drive
Video Card: Gigabyte Radeon HD 7950 3GB Video Card
Case: Cooler Master HAF 912 ATX Mid Tower Case
Power Supply: Corsair Professional 850W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply
Optical Drive: Asus DVD-E818AAT/BLK/B/GEN DVD/CD Drive
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Full (32/64-bit)
The CPU isn't overheating, and neither is the motherboard (I think.) Any help is extremely appreciated.
