Please help i have sudden fps drops lagging and freezing when i play games like fifa, cod ww2, re7 fallout 4, etc no matter the settings. Sometimes my whole pc freezes and the image changes into distorted colours.

I dont know whats causing it. Cpu and Gpu temps are fine and have also disabled Eist in the bios so that the cpu remains at its full clock speed. GPU temps are around 80c and CPU around 60c.
Gpu drivers are updated to the latest version and i have also tried uninstalling them completely and reinstalling them. There is also a sort of lagging sound coming from the pc cabinet like lagging power sounds when the drops happen.

specs:
gtx 760
i5 4570
msi b85m-g43(mobo)
single stick 8gb ram
corsair cx600 psu
seagate barracuda 1tb hDD

You install a fresh OS however you installed the OS on your old system. If you don't have an installation disk, flash drive, or the microsoft account the OS is tied to, you'll need to buy a new copy of windows.

I recommend disconnecting the old HDD when you're installing the OS.
