I installed a new MSI GTX 670 on October 12th. This issue did not begin until the 15th. I have only played two games since this started. It happens ingame constantly in Black Ops 2, It happens only after being in game for 20-30 seconds in Skyrim

I have tried:
Toggling power saving measures
Uninstalling/Reinstalling/Updating video drivers
Restoring to a date before the issue started

Have not tried:
Reinstalling Windows

I have included a slowed video and a GPU usage meter of the stuttering.
(download the video to see it at full 60fps)

Install MSI Afterburner and also check your temps, could be a possible overheat?
Turn up the fans higher for the card and test it out and see if you are still experiencing this problem under load.
Whats your psu like?
