Make sure that your video cards are being adequately cooled - if their temps are flying too far up then you might experience this symptom. For that matter, check all your hardware as well - could be an overheating CPU, overheating RAM, overheating Northbridge.....

Drivers - Download NVIDIA Drivers for your video card and most other drivers can be updated by using device manager which you can find under control panel
although the best place to go is the official websites of your hardware manufactures

I'm having the same problem. Not as bad as before. Make sure you have nothing running in the background. Like your anti/virus running a scan. Other stuff. Make sure your games have all the patch's. You might consider calling your manufacturer and letting them take control with remote assistance and check your settings. Should be a free option for you.
