yes I have the latest driver for gpu. battlefield one and destiny 2. 1080p
If it happens randomly it could be something running in the background hogging resources. Have you tried monitoring CPU / GPU / Memory usage while gaming to see what's different? MSI afterburner has an option to overlay these on the screen.

If for example the CPU is mysteriously running at a higher % sometimes you could alt tab and check task manager to see what's using it.
