[Fedora KDE Plasma] weird issue when playing all 3D games

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.

Need specs. Have you checked your free memory while games are running?

Try installing and using gamemode (if you haven't already).
