While playing almost any game, my fps will tank periodically- for example, while playing CS:GO I'll hold 190 fps, and then every 10 seconds or so I'll have 5 seconds of 30fps.
I found that the CPU usage (in task manager) would drop in sync with the frames.
Here's my build:
2 monitors 1920*1080
GTX770 2GB
AMD FX 8350 8-Core
16GB RAM
2x 1TB HDD
600w PSU
What I have tried:
Installing more RAM
New CPU cooler (Cooler master 212)
Unparking cores
Using a duster to clean out the heatsinks of the GPU and CPU
Removing one monitor from the build
Clearing out some of the shit in my main HDD (the new one was added after I started experiencing this problem)
New case fan
Disabling firewall and defender
What I Intend to try next:
New thermal paste (needs replacing anyway)
Clean wipe of the whole thing and reinstalling windows (would rather not)
Buying a new graphics card with more VRAM (would rather be sure it'll actually help, since it's expensive)
Thank you for any help you can offer.
