- dropped frames gtx1070
Monitor the CPU usage as four core/four thread is a likely culprit these days when paired with something like 1070 or better. Use Afterburner + Rivatuner to display CPU usage and keep an eye on it. If the drops happen when usage hits 100% then that's the cause. Another way of testing is to lock fps to 60 so the CPU doesn't have to work as hard preparing frames, and see if the drops still occur.
If that isn't it, it's probably driver related and you could try different driver. 431.60 was a good and stable one in general (I have a 1070 like you). But it's only a matter of time before the 6600K becomes a problem due to the above, if it isn't already.
