Hey guys,
i have been holding off on writing this because i thought i could fix my issue but it just won't go away and its extremely annoying. I believe i'm having some sort of memory leak. When playing games they run at a super smooth 60+ fps but after playing for a bit it starts to stutter and the frames drop to 20-30 fps then the frames go back up to 60+ fps and then it repeats over and over. so far this happens in rainbow six: siege, Overwatch, battlefield 4, Steep, and even devil daggers. I will also mention that the during the fps drops the CPU usage goes up to at least 50.0% (normally sits around 24.0-30.0) and the memory usage goes up to 2,000.0 - 3,000.0 mb. CPU Temp sits at 29C while not playing any game and when playing it goes up to 40C+ but never goes above 70C.
my specs
CPU: AMD FX-8320 3.5GHz (Eight Core) (set to highest performance in motherboard bios settings)
CPU Cooler: Asetek 510LC High Performance Liquid Cooling
GPU: Nvidia Geforce GTX 970 (not overclocked)
RAM: 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 1600MHz
Mobo: ASUS M5A97 LE SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 {4 DDR3 Slots}
PSU: 700 Watt (not sure of the brand)
