Recently, I upgraded my computer from a GTX 750ti and an AMD X4 860K to a GTX 1070 and an I7 6700K from Intel. There was a problem, my computer was running games much slower than expected. I was stuck for months without a clue what to do, ordering new parts and such to try and fix the issue. My components weren't working as hard as they should've been. I knew this because the temperatures of my GPU was around 45-50 under load and CPU around the same. How did I fix this? I refreshed Windows 10. It was a simple process and for some reason, it worked. I am now getting amazing performance in games that I expected to get from the start.
