CPU speed and multiplier drops by 50%

I have been experience some performance issues with my rig while under load and when I looked into why I immediately found that my CPU is cutting speed by 50% randomly while gaming and during stress tests.

I have done enough research to see that cool and quiet is disabled, smart fan disabled, and my windows power options are set to high performance (there was no option for the processor). Temps ranging from 38c~45c. I also loaded default settings in the bios, turned off all and any overclocking and still had the problem.

Is there something I am missing? I've tried googling the issue and all I get is the same old power options and cool and quiet advice. This is a relatively fresh install of windows (less than two months old). I do not recall seeing this issue prior. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Chip and MB Specs:
Asus M3A78-EMH HDMI (BIOS: AMI 1302)
AMD 780g/SB700
Phenom x4 9550
