Hello, after I custom built my own computer, everything was working amazingly until about a month ago. Now when I try and boot up multiple things like steam and skype, my computer will freeze for a second then continue to run. I wont notice anything until I play some games, where the FPS has dropped to maybe 10fps on minimal settings where as usually I can run on medium to high settings with no problem. After this happens I restart and its all better, until I multitask again. I noticed one day I was playting rocket league, and it was working fine. Clicked on a youtube video on my second monitor, it did its little freeze thing, then rocket league was trashed, and couldnt play at minimal settings. I didn't drop it, nothing really changed in my system besides the software that I trust, could it be a bug that I missed...
Plz help!!
