[Bug Report] GPU/CPU Throttling Mid Gameplay
So I bought ME:Legendary, and I've played through ME:1 and I'm now playing ME:2 and I'm running into a consistent issue between both games. The GPU, around 1 minute or less of gameplay, drops signif...

@bdcovington I think I might be out of ideas for the moment—you'd already covered most of what I'd have suggested by the time you posted. But someone else here might have more suggestions.
One thing I'm not sure would help, but is worth trying just so you can say you did, is undoing all overclocks. It's always useful to know that this happens on completely default settings.
Actually, this is completely random, but try playing while your computer is offline. This helps a few people with a similar issue in a totally different game, and I don't know why it would apply here, but should be easy enough to take your computer offline after putting Origin and Steam in offline mode and before launching the game.
One thing of note, your CPU is also dropping in usage. You can easily see the normal period and then a drop when it starts acting up. This may be related to bios or chipset issues on the CPU instead of the GPU. CPU for some reason not sending data to the GPU can also cause this kind of issue. This is an odd issue. Last time I heard of this was AMD and a Bios update fixed it for a different game.....or it could be a cross program interference, maybe a clean boot of your system and make triple sure only the bare minimum of programs are running. Also maybe a sfc/scannow of your op system may also be in order.
Looks like throttling tbh.
You might be overheating somewhere.
