    I have an R1 M14x and the latest NVIDIA Driver. In addition, I have Whitelisted Lol Launcher.exe. Everytime I play league of legends I get huge fluctuations in my FPS, ranging from 12-192 FPS. I have set the settings to high rather than very high and I'm still getting FPS fluctuations. When I set V-sync on I get a stable 40 fps, but when action gets heavy the whole game just freezes for like 1 sec and I get 12 fps during that time...

    Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

    Definitely wired. Well I do notice that as the M14x gets hotter, the fps fluctuations increase by a bit. Does anyone know if this is a heat related problem? I'm not overclocking right now, but I may need to buy a cooling pad.
