Relevant specs:
OS: Windows 10
Motherboard: MSI 760GM-P34
CPU: FX-6300
PSU: Corsair CX430
GPU: MSI GeForce GTX 950 OCV1
Since purchasing this GTX 950 about a week ago, I've noticed significant (and random) frame drops when playing more intensive titles (namely Rust), even on lower settings. These frame drops are accompanied by freezes and MSI Afterburner shows the GPU Usage dropping from 100% to 0% (see a screenshot HERE). Given that I don't have many other titles to test this with, I downloaded Unigine's benchmarking utility and during (as well as after) the benchmark, the usage drops were the same.
Here is the average result:
Typically, these drops seemingly happen the most when rendering large amounts of terrain (e.g. player buildings, towns, hills with copious foliage). I don't believe this is a power-related issue and my drivers are current (even updated them yet again today).
Any insight into what may be causing this?
Thanks a bunch!
