I saw it while I was playing World of Tanks. Usually on max settings I get around 80 fps but when the clock speed goes to 2885MHz I get around 30 fps.

Solution
Have you checked cpu temps with amd overdrive when the clock speed drops? It should give you a thermal margin, how many degrees until you're throttling from heat.
