So I got my MacBook Pro13 Inch a few months ago and mostly I'm in Bootcamp. When I play games or use high resource programs, my MacBook frame drops. This is the GPU usage when in games.

Any idea if I can raise the shared GPU memory and it will perform better? Thanks.
Did you updated Windows drivers recently? Check Windows Updates history.
Create a Windows System Restore point, and try to Download and install Windows support software on your Mac - Apple Support and test.

In most cases, when GPU usage goes up, the temperature should also go up, which is subject to thermal throttling.

No. See https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000020962/graphics.html for an explanation.
I think what happened after the update was that the system changed the dedicated video memory from 512 to 128, which made the performance worse. I tried going into regedit and changing the RAM usage but it won't change. If nothing fixes I will try making an alternative Windows Bootcamp disk.
Sorry I'm a little late, but my MacBook has never been so laggy before when playing games. It maintained a smooth fps and all of the sudden it just lagged spiked a lot. Is there any way to get rid the lag spikes for good? Thanks.
Yes, this happened right after i updated to the latest version.
I test if the MacBook lags right?
Yes.
It should not change the dedicated VRAM settings. The shared memory between GPU and System may change.
why does my computer suddenly frame drop when playing games?
