When i first got my computer and I was playing games like CS:GO, League Of Legends, Left 4 Dead, etc my frame rate was 60+ on medium - high settings but now it seems like my fps has really fallen of as it's 30-40 now on the same settings. What could be the solution to my problem?

Hi there,

Pls try to update to latest Graphics card driver.Sometimes Drivers are bugged and you get low FPS.Also check Graphics card temp and usage when playing and not playing games.
Scan your PC for viruses(use malware bytes).There are lots of bitcoin miner viruses which infects PC and user get like 100% usage even when not playing games and due to this the frame rate get affected ingame.

Also dont forget to defragment your HDD or SSD from time to time

It has NEVER been recommended to defrag an SSD.
Hard drives, yes, but NOT an SSD.
