So two days ago for some reason I have been getting this weird bug where every 5-7 seconds my fps drops crazily. Being I don't have vsync on I watch as 300 fps goes to 150, and the screen freezes for half a second. I've verified the cache integrity 2 times and my drivers are up to date.. It is just this game too, so I have no clue what to do..

 

specs, geforce 980, i7-56k, 16gb ram

 

5/7

I have realized this is not happening just to csgo now, but to other fps games too

you're right, because fps drops are normal in good computers...

FPS drops can be caused by other things then just poor hardware, if you read.. he has an above average build (probably better then yours ) and is seeking help because obviously he should not be getting random drops like he is experiencing. 

 

 

My only advice based on what you have given us OP is to make sure you are running the latest drivers, also are you using Nvidia's custom settings for CSGO? Or did you customize them yourself? Monitor your hardware too try running in windows mode and replicate the issue see if your CPU or GPU usage percentages spike up or drop unexpectedly.

Thought it was only csgo, but now I realized it is happening in other fps games i have

maybe you are just retarded

If it only happens during performance gaming your rig might be overheating. Do some tests and find out, if it is just go in and clean it/ make sure nothing is blocking your fan(s).

15 GB ram

 

what an odd amount to have.
