3 years ago i bought a New graphics card: amd radeon 7 260x and i have been Playing Csgo and talking thru teamspeak with friends for 3 years Now and never got any fps problems. ( always around 120 fps).

Lately ( 3 weeks ) i have been Playing alot of minecraft with friends and we talked thru discord.
But since 3 days ago i have been having alot of random lag spikes in Minecraft from 120 fps to 0 ( the whole games freezes for 3 secs)
Its really annoying :(

I have some thoughts about the cause: i have 8g ram But only 2g usable. The temperature might be too high.

I hope someone has a solution to solve this issue.

Solution
Download ddu and select amd. Select clean and shut down. Then take the gpu out of the pci slot and check for dust, reseat the card firmly, make sure all the wires are secured, etc. Then boot, go to nvidia's website and download a fresh set of the latest drivers and install.
