Throttling Unstable Fps

[Hendrik Spoor]

My fps while gaming seems incredibly unstable and as a not so tech savvy person I need help to figure out what might be throttling my build to have these sporadic frame drops. The cpu temp is usually 40-45C under heavy load and the gpu depending on fan speed is usually between 50-70C. I went in the bios and turned off all power saving options and also changed options in the graphics card settings to not save for power. Any help would be appreciated if there is any missing information please help me provide what information is necessary. Thank you for your time in advance.

Here is the build:

Motherboard:ASUS M597 LE R2
Cpu:Amd 8350Fx
Gpu:EVGA NVIDIA GTX 970
Psu:Corsair CX Series CX600 600W
Ram:Corsair Vengeance Black CMZ16GX3M2A1600C10 16GB 2x8GB DDR3-1600Mhz
Monitor x2:Benq XL2411Z

Sometimes it can be the api like DX 12 and 11 but on some GPUs a older API software works better so try DX 11 or 12 if supported and it can fix

The other option could be updating and reinstalling drivers.since u use Nvidia try going to Nvidia site

I suspected it may be a hardware issue but I will try your solutions and report back.

I've done both and even did a clean install of the drivers still getting complete frame drops.
