Every few minutes, when I’m playing 3d games (like minecraft or blue price) my fps drops to around 5-10, stays that way for about 10 seconds, and then returns to a normal framerate. This does not happen with 2D games. I don’t play competitive games so it doesn’t impact me a ton but I thought I’d report it here in case someone can solve the issue.

I doubt the diemension of a game has anything to do with it, rather it is probably due to 3D games being more resource intensive. Do you use a nvidia gpu?
Need specs. Have you checked your free memory while games are running?
Try installing and using gamemode (if you haven’t already).
