30fps on Windows 10

I recently upgraded to windows 10. Occasionally, during melee+PM netplay, they'll drop to 30fps. It goes back up to 60 if I alt+tab, however. Outside of this, the games run perfectly fine. Is anyone else having this issue? This happens on both 5.0-321, and 4.0-7840.

Do you have v-sync enabled?

Yes, I do. Should I have it disabled?

EDIT: This seems to have fixed the issue. Thank you!

Essentially if a game is running below 60 fps there will be an unfinished frame. This will result in
A "tear" where the new frame and old frame combine (vsync off)
A wait for the next frame (30 fps vsync on)
