I am running on an i5 4670k OC'd at 4.4 GHz (running at low temp), 8gb of RAM, and a GTX 770 (graphics setting of game are optimized by GeForce experience). I haven't had problems and have been playing this game on and off for years. Coming home on break I noticed that sometimes FPS will drop and even the sound will stutter. I tried lowering the graphics settings but it didn't improve performance much. The problem is starting to get worse, any ideas?

The CPU temps stay around 45C and maxed out at 52C. The GPU sits around 52C and maxed out at 62C. I attached another clip that shows the gameplay while I was getting the temps.
