You say your games crash, but you don't provide any details. Only thing you complain about is minor fluctuations in your frame rate. Please provide more details so that we can properly assist you.

it sounds like a hw issue. overheating maybe. Make sure that you use some canned air and blow out ALL of your fans, power supply, and graphics card.
