Windows 10: Sudden drop in fps while gaming

So I play this game called VALORANT on my HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop which is about more than a year old and for a few weeks I am experiencing sudden frame drops while playing. It runs fine for a few moments and then again I experience the frame drops. I tried turning off my background processes like discord and it works fine then but with any background process running I experience the same issue. Usually I get around 180-200 fps but when I experience drop it comes down to 90 or lower. I have run the ram test and also checked my cpu usage while playing and it looked normal. It will be very hel

Sudden FPS drop/Stutter

Since 2 days ago, I just turned on my Computer, and it starting having issues while I was playing Witcher 3 (starts with decent fpsm and then very low fps, dropping to 35, then 20, and stopping at 12 or so, in a matter of seconds, in a matter of 1min of starting the game), also stuttering without any high demanding programs, randomly. I was playing at 45-60 fps, without any stutters or sudden fps drop. Have tried other games the issue persists. Even setup everything to low settings.
I have ran several tests with several tools, all seems normal, no sudden memory spikes, or temperature raising out of the ordinary, nothing that would indicate such an fps drop or stuttering.

MSI Afterburner

I also did the reset option on Windows10, completly cleaned out all my personal info from the windows partition.
So at this point, I am not sure if it is a software issue or a hardware issue.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Edit: I kept doing some tests to find out the issue. And this happened before and I was able to replicate it. Same thing happened as before, till I set it up to fullscreen, Alt+Tab from the game and then back to the game, FPS went up to 50 again, stable and good, dropped after a couple of seconds. After a bit it went to 2-5 fps, and I had to shutdown the game, because even the sound was getting messed up.

In this image those ups and downs in the GPU usage are when the fps dropped really hard and the sound got messed up.

Sudden FPS drops.

Hey Raniel, i just tried it. I think it actually could be a part of the PC that is damaged, after doing it everything seemed fine, i checked my FPS with OSU! (the rythm game) and the FPS drops came back, being so it could be the graphic card that could be ruined.
