FPS drops from 45-60 to 2-3 OFTEN

I’ve started getting fps drops ever since the Zephyrite update, but since I do not use this computer on a regular basis I can’t be more specific than that I’m afraid. The drops occur no matter what I am doing, even if I’m alone or with 20+ people, standing still or fighting.

They are happening very often as well, I’m not joking when I say they come every 1-1,5 min for about 4 seconds and then go away.
The sound also stutter during the drops, maybe that can help to locate the problem?
I am 100% sure that dust/overheating is the problem since I just changed CPU fan one week ago, and cleaned the computer at that time as well.

Here’s a few links for my specs, graphics options and AMD vision center options:

Hey there JarlyX! Thanks for giving us something to go off of right off the bat!

I took a look at your Speccy Snapshot and your RAM configuration caught my attention. This could just be an improper reading by Speccy, but from the sticks of RAM in your system your memory should be running at 800MHz but instead it’s running at 534,4 MHz. If you are comfortable with making changes to the BIOS, I’d recommend adjusting the settings to their intended values since the memory appears under-clocked.
