Hello !
Recently I have bought new GPU 1070 instead of my old GTX 670 cause poor 670 died and after I installed mine 1070 while playing games I noticed my fps drops from 100 to 10 for few seconds and that is quite annoying! Might it be RAM problem ?
PC Specs:
I7 3770K
8Gb 1333Mhz DDR3
2TB HDD
GTX 1070

What games? Usually, stuttering like that is caused by the game having to reload world assets as they come into view. That could be caused by a RAM stick going bad or it could be that the GPU isn't getting enough power from the PSU.
