I've had this problem of getting low fps before, but it was solved by replacing an old HDD that had a virus that greatly raised my CPU usage and couldn't be removed with any program. I first learned I had the original HDD problem because I plugged in my friends HDD into my system and it worked great, so I know my system can handle the games. After I replaced it I was getting much better FPS and CPU usage such as 90 FPS on BF4 with only 70% CPU usage, but now it's slowly getting worse. On BF4 it's anywhere from 30-80; Minecraft is 15-100 and anything else I play is basically the same variability. I've updated all my drivers, optimized my games and specs, but it's not working. I also have a friend who has a 3 year old AMD card, and he claims he gets a constant 100fps on MC while mine fluctuates. Does anybody have a clue on how to fix it? Because I don't want to know that I have another hidden virus, and I've been to Tiger Direct and they basically told me to screw off because I didn't have the Windows sticker on my rig, and I don't trust BestBuy with anything.
