Question Massive FPS drops, regardless of settings
Question Massive FPS drops, regardless of settings
Hello once more,
I attempted to use MSI Afterburner:

The CPU and GPU percentages are decreasing to 0-10% when the FPS drops, I'm not sure if that's typical.
Other statistics remain relatively stable.
About the air cooling, I don't really know my setup or the different types available. Sorry.
Is the cooler big? It doesn't seem like the CPU is overheating, so I'm guessing it's a tower cooler since K-series Intel processors usually come without the poor OEM ones. Taking a picture might help us identify it. Probably not a heating problem at all.
Your problem could be related to both games or trying more titles. Or maybe something in Windows or an installed program is affecting performance. Check the startup items in Task Manager and look at the processes tab—sort by CPU and memory from highest to lowest. See if any high-using process stands out, and consider searching for that process online. Malwarebytes could be useful too.
Power supply issues are another possibility, but I'm not sure until we address it. This might not help immediately, but it's definitely something to consider. There are likely discussions and suggestions on forums like Steam, Reddit, or related game communities.
