    One of the "basic" drivers COMPLETELY ruining the gameplay (csgo)

    On a fresh install of windows, the only drivers I lack are these ones: https://imgur.com/a/PRMU1 And when I play csgo, the game feels fantastic.

    Why am I only getting hard page faults only on Win7 (and not Win10)?

    What is hindering my performance?!?

    I still don't get it. I monitored the FurMark test: https://imgur.com/a/xGn6B Now I'm hitting the power limit but not getting a voltage limit (the complete opposite from the game). I'm still unsure whether it's the GPU or the PSU

    What is hindering my performance?!?

    I first bought a used PC(@ a PC shop, didn't really have a lot of money initially) and then I decided to upgrade it. So now I have: MSI Z270-A PRO i5 7600k at stock settings (disabled EIST/TurboBoost/Virtualization and the C-states) pic of CPU features in BIOS: https://imgur.com/a/Wz0Xb CPU...
