I recently installed a GTX 680 in my PC and when playing GTA V, I get a smooth 60fps at high settings for about 50 seconds and then the fps drops drastically, making the game unplayable for about 10 seconds. I used open hardware monitor to monitor the CPU and GPU and found that during the 10 seconds, the CPU (FX-8350) goes to 100% load, and i'm pretty sure it's not thermal throttling as it tends to stay at about 50-55 degrees. The GPU stays at about 65 degrees.
I really don't know why there is an fps drop because even with my old GTX 650 at low settings, I didn't get any drops.
My specs:
AMD FX-8350
GeForce GTX 680
16GB DDR3 RAM
Asus M5A78L-M
EVGA 500W
Windows 10
