[Simply.RCC]

Hi Al,

Have you checked your temperatures on the CPU or the GPU?

[GeorgeKellow]

Did you update your drivers? 

[Simply.RCC]

Yes sir,

 

The temps i might say is normal when playing games.

 

Processor : AMD FX 8150

VC :Sapphire R9 270x TOXIC

is that max or average ? 78°C seems REAAALLLY hot in game. Did you overclock ? what is your CPU cooler ?

 

also, does it do it with all your games or specific one(s) ?

I had this same problem. My issue was I had an Xbox one controller connected. If you have one connected, disconnect it and see if it stops. If so the you must find the right driver for it.

Can you monitor CPU clocks while in game?

the fps drop occurs in a specific game or in all games ?

I would bet it has to do with the CPU temp, which is normal regarding CPU model, your city temperature and the (good but not best) cooler.

instead of buying a new CPU cooler you could try to use a new thermal paste such as GELID

the fps drop usually occurs when playing DoTA2. I already replaced my thermal paste

if it's only in DOTA2 then it's not a hardware problem but a software problem. Check drivers of games options
