In what game? You might be hitting the 3.5GB limit of the memory.

World of warcraft , even on other games like D3 or Hots/league of legends my fps is rly low like under 60 and it drops alot constantly from
60-20-30-40 with just moving my character and having small freezes from fps drops itsrly annoying :S , on my old 670 i was having stable 70-80 fps on everygame with out such big fps drops... its like the gpu stop working for few sec and then starts again xD drops half fps every few seconds , the fps going crazy up and down... seems rly weird

Try increasing the Power Limit to the max in MSI Afterburner and disable V-sync if you have it on.
