Horrible stuttering in Unreal Engine games

I've noticed that with my pc, there is horrible stuttering in Unreal engine games. For example, in both Life is Strange and Styx Shards of Darkness (Unreal Engine 3 and 4), there is absolutely horrendous stuttering in certain parts of the game. What I mean by stuttering is that the frame rate would just tank for a few seconds for absolutely no apparent reason and then shoot back up. When this happens, the game hitches/stutters really badly for a few seconds momentarily before fixing itself. In Life is Strange, for example, one second, I'm playing the game at 144 fps, and then all of a sudden, when I reach a certain part of the game, the frame rate would just tank down to 110 or so for a split second, and then immediately shoot back up to 144, causing a horrible stutter - it's almost like a freeze.

Anyone know what could be causing this?

Oh, and to add, if I try a game that's using a different engine, like CryEngine, I don't encounter the problem.

My specs:

4770k @ 4.4 | Corsair H105 | MSI GTX 980ti GAMING 6G | Asus Maximus VI Hero | Corsair 1200W PSU | 16 GB G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series @ 2133 | Asus PG278Q
 
Running the Windows 10 Creator's Update? Lots of people have been complaining about stuttering and low frame rates in games since that update.
