Almost every stat in MSI afterburner is spiking up and down

So my PC is doing very strange things. When my PC is under load playing certain games the lamp in my room flickers in correspondence to the stuttering of the fps in game and as well as the metrics in msi afterburner. As the game stutters and the msi stats go up and down my lamp flickers at the same rate. Ive posted images below to what happens in msi afterburner.. My temps are fine from what I can see. I know its a bit hot but people with the same gpu as me get the same temps.  I thought it might be a power issue so I replaced my power supply and gpu but the problem didn't go away. I don't think its my FX-8350 bottlenecking my gtx 970 cause a friend of mine has an fx-6300 and a gtx 970 and doesn't experience the issues. Anyone have any ideas? This is my first post sorry if I am breaking any rules. Also i'm not sure If I need to include my specs cause I have them detailed on my profile.

P.S I would like to include that this issue only happens in certain games.

What power supply do you have? Exactly ... not just wattage.

EDIT:

RM 750 .. nevermind.

I think you have much bigger issues than gaming performance. You must have some crummy power in your household.

Yea, I checked your profile but after I commented :D

 

I dont think your problem is your PC rather than your wires. I would get it checked out asap.

I tried plugging my pc in different parts of my house and the lights don't flicker but the stuttering persists, the thing that is strange is that my pc runs games like Overwatch just fine but small things like scrolling though a menu will make my lamp flicker 0_o

You must be catching a huge interference somewhere... I am sorry but I dont know how to help you solve this. I can only recommend you to get the power in your house checked.

I had one of the people who work for my apartment complex come and see the issue and he recommended I plug the lamp in a different socket or unplug some things.I only have my PC, my monitor and my lamp plugged in haha.
