I`m playing Arkham knight. First 20 minutes everything is fine untill i notice some fps drops that get more and more constant.

I downloaded MSI afterburner to monitor my graphics card. I noticed that 20 minutes into the game my power % and my GPU usage drop simultaniously to very close to 0. That was of corse synced with fps drop. how do i fix this ???

*IMPORTANT DETAILS

*Temperature DOES NOT get higher than 80C

*I did NOT overclock my graphics card

*V-Sync is off

*No matter the configuration of the game it starts lagging after 20 minutes.

*When I reopen the game I can play for about another 20 minutes befor game starts lagging.

*I am running 2 monitors

*1 HDMI output (42 inch Sony TV where game is played)

*1VGA output (15 inch monitor where random internet page im reading stays open)

*Does not change if i unplug the VGA output


PLEEAAASSEEEE help this is becoming annoying.

You mean ARK? That game isn't optimized very well yet, either. It's probably just optimization.
