my mate has a problem with his computer this is what he is saying:

Normally I would run at a solid 60fps plus with no fps drops on every game but all of a sudden my fps drops to 10-30 for a couple minutes and then goes back to normal
 
Specs:
Geforce GTX 760
Intel Core i5-4590
16GB RAM
Windows 10

its only using around 40%

even when the issue arises? (memory leaks cause the ram to slowly fill, eventually not being able to accept any more it so it's moved onto the hard drives or SSDs, which are much slower, causing performance dips).

BTW this is system ram not GPU ram (which may also be the issue, some games may exceed it's 2GB capacity, moving those tasks onto the system memory, with a similar effect.)

Sounds like thermal throttling (The CPU most likely) getting too hot and turning down its clock speed so it can still run.

Try re-applying thermal paste on both and maybe investing in better case fans and/or a better CPU cooler.

CPU = Too hot, too spicy (Subway reference)

 

Seriously though, your CPU should never run that hot. Not even my FX 8150 (when I had it) ran that hot. 

System Specs:

CPU: Ryzen 7 5800X

GPU: Radeon RX 7900 XT 

RAM: 32GB 3600MHz

HDD: 1TB Sabrent NVMe -  WD 1TB Black - WD 2TB Green -  WD 4TB Blue

MB: Gigabyte  B550 Gaming X- RGB Disabled

PSU: Corsair RM850x 80 Plus Gold

Case: BeQuiet! Silent Base 801 Black

Cooler: Noctua NH-DH15
