Hey everyone,
I recently got a new monitor, Asus ROG PG279Q which is paired with two other monitors, Asus VG248QE and an old 1600x900 HP monitor I got back in 2009. I've recently had issues with my build slowly losing performance capability about a week and a half after getting this new monitor. I'm playing games at 2k with 150+ FPS on Overwatch as my standard while also watching a youtube video or some HBO on the 1080p monitor. Recently I've gone down to maintaining 145 FPS on Overwatch, then down to 120 FPS on Minecraft FTB when youtube is open, down to 100 with Overwatch and youtube open(the colliding graphics use crashes the game and freezes the pc in Overwatch, but the frame drop occurs in all games), and now I'm down to maintaining a stable 96 FPS in Overwatch with nothing else open. This has all slowly occured across a span of 5 days. Ideas I've tried so far are a scan for malware using Malware Bytes, resetting my PC, cleaning up and opening space on my C: drive, updating Nvidia drivers, and shutting various processes down in Task Manager, all to no success. I'm wondering if anyone here might have some good ideas to try for resolving this, cause I'm starting to run short on my own capabilities for this.
Build
CPU: Intel i7-9700k @ 3.6 GHz
GPU: Asus ROG Strix RTX 2070
Mem: 16GB DDR4 @ 3000 MHz
PSU: EVGA Nova Gold 750W
MB: Asus ROG Strix Z390-H
