Have you watched the GPU usage before (in the same game/s) or are you just assuming it's not different because something is going on? 

 

What's your CPU usage and GPU temps?

yes, I've watched the gpu usage before...and I'm not assuming as moving the cursor or watching youtube becomes spiky here and there...

 

anyways...I just reverted to 361.75 drivers and it seems to have fixed it...testing it now on regular PC usage e.g. browsing then a few games after a while...

sooo my GPU has recently been acting up for some reasons...no idea why here's a screenshot of Afterburner....

 

as I wait for replies...I'll try going back to stock clock...installing a previous driver and checking hardware...

Just the FPS is spiking? Doesn't seem like an issue to me. 

The label is above the graph. That's the GPU usage graph, not the framerate graph

What are you doing when that graph was SS?

 

 

merely browsing the internet...mouse cursor and youtube spikes after every second...
