Need some community help if possible. I'm getting frame drops from 60 to 40 (at pretty much 45 sec apart like clockwork) in all games. It happens when my pc is on for a couple of hours. Then goes away if I restart my pc.
All my devices/drivers are updated,
I've done a fresh install of windows using usb boot drive
Fresh gpu driver update using DDU (many times)
All temps are completely normal
Bios is up to date
I've noticed since I installed a couple new fans my gpu fans make a weird swooshing revving up sound. This sound goes away when I put on my msi afterburner fan curve. I had my gpu overclocked with msi afterburners auto oc before, then had an issue with a driver and since then every time I try to do an auto overclock it comes back as unstable. Could it be a gpu bios issue?
Also when I installed my new fans I fooled around with my bios fan curve but have tried to set it back to default. I'm at my wits end about this issue and have tried everything within my knowledge to fix it. Before I send my gpu back for RMA hopefully there is a fix
Please help!!!

Solution
Cod, assassin's creed, halo, overwatch, slay the spire, farcry, skater xl, dark souls, sekiro, star wars battlefront 2, hitman 3, death stranding, ori and the will of the wisps, nioh 2, rainbow 6 seige, destiny 2.
Those types of games to name a few.

In that case if I were having problems in all those games mentioned, I would refrain from using anything other than just the operating system, minimal drivers and the games to be played... And then if there are still problems, its the hardware at fault.

Degradation from overclocking ?

Do you have HPET turned on in the BIOS ?
