Random FPS Drops

So in basically all of the games I play, CSGO, R6S etc. I get really bad fps spikes that drop the fps down to the 20 range. In csgo I get around 200+ fps and sometimes it will just freeze for up to 6 seconds and then come back, also micro stuttering every few seconds. The micro stuttering also happens in rainbow six siege. I can not seem to find the cause of this and it is really annoying me. My current build has a Ryzen 5 1600 OC'd to 4GHz, a GTX 1070 and 8GB of DDR4 ram.

Search for "Ryzen FPS Drop". There are a number of causes (not directly related to the Ryzen chip). Power management, a few on LED light controls from different manufacturers (Gigabyte, Corsair), and others. You should also test without your OC enabled. Check your temps to make sure they are in-range when overclocking. Make sure you're properly powering your 1070. Let us know if you get more info.

My temps never go above 60C on my GPU or CPU when gaming and my 1070 has two seperate 4 pin connectors powering it.
