I've looked through a few threads here to see if I could pick up some tips to solve this issue but I'm at a loss. I've downloaded some of the tools in other suggestions and tested logging things.
System Specs
i7-7820X
X299 Aorus Gaming 7 (Gigabyte)
32GB (4x8 Corsair Vengeance LPX) DDR4 DRAM 3000MHz
WIN 10 Pro x64 on High Performance power
I've got a 3 monitor setup, all 1440p BenQ monitors. I've got 2 graphics cards in my system. The GTX 1080 for my middle main monitor and a GTX 1050 for my 2 secondary monitors. I ran Afterburner to do tracking to figure out if there was a bottleneck somewhere (CPU usage or GPU usage) and I can't find it.
The whole reason I bought the second card is because I thought my 1080 was buckling. I've even set my secondary card to Dedicated Physx for testing. I've tried tweaking nVidia Control panel settings and just leaving them to defaults but there is nothing I can see stopping this spiking. It's has been happening for several months across many driver versions, I'm just annoyed now because I was considering just buying a 1080 TI to see if that would solve this but I don't see GPU load ever happening so I'm not sure that would solve anything.
I find it in any various number of games. My GPU usage is not max and my CPU usage is not max but I'll get spikes. The only thing I found with Afterburner is that when GPU usage dropped the FPS also dropped (not sure if that has anything to do with it, its just what I noticed).

https://i.imgur.com/ha10xia.png = page1 Drop Behavior (32% / 30 fps)
https://i.imgur.com/KFvGAOS.png = page2 (No variance I can see)
This particular capture is during FF14 I've tried borderless windowed and windowed. High and Low graphics settings. Regardless of my settings I get this spikes and thats just this game tested, it happens in many others (Monster Hunter World, World of Warcraft, FF15, etc...).
For harddrives I've got 2 SSDs and 2 SSHDs and various games installed between them. It doesn't seem to matter which drive the game is installed on.
I'd be happy to shoot a paypal thank you over to someone if they can help me figure out what I'm missing here.
