i recently got a brand new pc from cyberpower, its nothing insane it cost about 800

it has an win8 with amd fx 6300, 8gb ram, zotac geforce gtx750 1gb

this pc is fairly new like 1 week new i have about 4 games installed with a few other programs.

any game i run on normal/medium settings will run smoothly fore like 10-30 min and then it starts gettting random frames drops like 15-35 frames drop with lag spike. i tried offline games and online games so its not a connection issue. some days itll be fine for a few hours.

my cpu usage reading when im playing gta v is about 70-80% ram usage is about the same and my pc sits around 30c-40c when gaming.. i know gta v is a hard game to run on my type a pc but its not just that i could be playing somthing like counter strike or sims or left for dead 2 and ill get that random frame drops.

in the background while gaming i got steam, teamspeak and spotify up.

im not sure what would be causing it any ideas??
