Go to solution Solved by CaptainRaylin,

So the problem is fixed. although i don't really know what the matter was... i overclocked the 700k again to 4.8Ghz and yeah... maybe it was de RAM-Frequency which made problems, because i did not set them up to their max yet...

Hello,

 

I have a big problem since 2 days. When i start the Computer and start playing (let's say BF3) i have a normal fps count over 150+ with a GPU-Load with about 80%+ (temperature at about 60°C). But when i play a while the load drops slowly and so does the fps counter... it gets down to 25% load and really annoying laggy gameplay. (CPU temp sits around 65°C) I really don't know what happened in those last 2 days... before that it worked just fine. And i have this Problem with all games so far (LoL, Overwatch, BF1, BF3, BF3 etc.) I reinstalled the latest nVidia driver and so on... And as soon as i restart the PC the problem is gone for a while and comes back again...
Can anyone tell me what this is?

GPU: ASUS STRIX-GTX1080TI OC

CPU: i7-7700K @4.2Ghz (was at 4.7 but i lowered it again in hope that that was the problem)

Other specs are attached.
Thanks already for some answers!

I'm sorry. What is a Pagefile?

It is your virtual memory:

 

You should take it away from your C:// drive or disable it altogether considering you have 32gb of RAM

So, meanwhile i've reinstalled Windows and i have still the same Problem... i really don't know what it it / could be. If someone knows something i'd be really thankful.
As you can see on the attachment, i've played 10 mins BF3 and the fps and load is dropping in those 10 mins.
