My games are awlays running at 100+fps but recently it dropped to 50 and the game will become choppy at times.
Never had any problems with lag until now.

60hz screen

AMD A10-5800 3.8ghz
8GB ram
GTX 760

pc has normal cpu, ram, gpu usage when playing games.

Things I did:

-Scan: malwarebytes, superantispyware
-check temp, nothing is overheating
-remove dust from pc
-update all drivers
-set the best settings in nvidia and ingame
 
Solution


Windows 10 is a bit buggy and this is probably the reason why.

When I upgraded (4 times) I still wasn't satisfied so I'm back on Windows 8 and I think its more stable.

Hopefully Windows will come up with a patch. Unfortunately you can't downgrade anymore since you've been on it for 4 - 5 months.

Sorry for the late reply

I play counterstrike most of the time the fps counter said 150-200 fps now it's 50-120 fps and gets choppy.
Most of my games ran smooth when I played them before but now they don't.

It wouldn't make a difference,
did you have windows 7 or 8 previously and upgraded to 10?

I did do a full reset yesterday and I'll see if the problem is still there.
I bought windows 8 4 or 5 months ago and upgraded to windows 10 when it was available.

The problem is gone now after the reset, no more lag spikes and a steady fps.
Thanks for helping.

I'm glad you have resolved your issue,
Windows 10 must've somehow slowed the performance down
