Specs:

OS: Most Recent windows 10 update
CPU: i5-4590 (yes i get low temps with hyper evo 212)
GPU: MSI 1060 6 GB Gaming X
Ram: Ballistix Sport 8GB
Mobo: MSI Intel z97 PC Mate
HDD: 2 TB Seagate
PSU: EVGA 500w
Monitor: Generic 1080p 60fps Acer
Net speed (just in case): 25mbps download 2mbps upload with only 2-4 devices including pc on the network. I also have sometimes google or Skype or sometimes both running in the background and haven't recorded for YouTube in a while although I sometimes do.

Games I play:

Grand Theft Auto 5
Rust
Gears of War 4
Forza Horizon 3
Wildlands
For Honor
DayZ
Skyrim
Fallout 4
Civ 6
Outlast 2
(etc.)

My Problem:

I get bad fps drops and even audio lag but rarely I don't know why. To my limited knowledge I have a relatively decent pc. It isn't watercooled, and doesn't contain 20 $5,000 graphics cards and led lighting up my neighborhood streaming to 5 8k monitors at 600 fps but it gets the job done.

It kind of started around when I gave half of my Ram away (when I had 16 GB now I have 8 GB like stated in the specs) to a friend in a build I made for him but that could be coincidental. There are no viruses and I have clean installed windows multiple times with still lag every time. I sometimes use settings that I see on youtube videos of people with similar pc setups recommending the max out the game or a little more but I sometimes have rendering problems like when a gears match first starts its really laggy cause i feel it may still be rendering things in and in gta 5 I randomly drop to like 4 frames or something and my gaming experience is just horrible a 1060 ^ GB should be able to max out gta and get above 60 and some people are but I don't know how to figure out my source of the problem :/ It's seems like I played better on my 960 4 GB that I gave away at similar settings too. The first 1060 I got from amazon had a fan that didn't spin half the time but I believe and really hope this 1060 is good as at least the fans work.

Anyone have any ideas? I was thinking Ram possible and yes its registers as 8 GB still in my pc info but is there a way it could be a little faulty or is there anything you guys can help me do to figure out why I get frame drops?

Uningine Test:

So I tried recording my fps drops but it didnt work so well, my upload speed is trash and I lost power while uploading the video.

I decided to get Uningine and test my fps there. Keep in mind I have a good system and when other people with similar setups while recording tested there min frames was around 30 but mine dropped to 7 just like my games do I will put log files below.

Yepp

Here is a good piece of additional info. http://imgur.com/a/SUL0I

That is a screenshot of the lag/stuttering in gears of war 4 the gpu core and memory clock along with other things keeps going from 0 to 100 and back. I have no explanation for this but what i outlined right in that photo is exactly whats causing this. I just need to fix it

This is an update I finally got a picture of whats happening. as posted above. Most of my posts die out after 1 or 2 responses but I need this answered urgently. I will obviously go back and post an answer to my other post if someone is smart enough to solve this. This picture highlights where I was lagging like CRAZY in gears 4.

What is the meaning of this? I have updated drivers yada yada but please help it's making me regret having a pc.
