Hello I'm just trying to get a quick rough idea if this is normal. I have a i5 6600k overclocked to 4.5 ghz which is rock solid paired with a Gtx 1070. I've always played games with vsync on which we all know locks the fps at 60 and never had to much of a problem except for the annoying input lag and random small stutter that I find often times goes along with vsync.
I have recently decided to look into eventually getting a monitor with adaptive sync which will most likely have a higher refresh rate so i decided to turn vsync off so I could try running games at a higher fps which currently I have capped at 100 fps.
I have noticed on games like Black Ops 3 and Rise of the Tomb Raider at 1080p with settings on high at 100 fps the i5 6600k will often times hit 100% which causes the Gtx 1070 to drop to pretty much 0% usage and cause huge fps drops down to 10-15 fps for like 1-2 seconds then it jumps back up. Is this normal?
This will happen sporadically and doesn't seem to be as severe at 60 fps, but even at 60 fps I notice large fps drops occasionally on certain titles. Is this some kind of a bottleneck?
I have had similar problems like this in the past but have since replaced everything in my computer except for my PSU is it possible that it's a potential problem?
Any help would would be greatly appreciated thanks!
