I had bought a new GTX 1060 last week to replace my Radeon HD 7950 Boost but when I installed it on my system, after 5 minutes of use, the screen started flickering badly and I had to immediately switch off. I left the PC at a repair shop and they replaced the unstable PSU. I had also given them two additional sticks of memory - each 8GB for a final 32 GB RAM.
Now given that the fan of my liquid cooler is just milliliters away from my RAM sticks, they had to unscrew one of the fans because one of its blades crashed against a RAM stick and broke. Yesterday they called and told me that I could collect my PC. I checked it and confirmed that everything was normal and bought it home.
When I started my PC at home however I noticed the system was a bit slow. I tried to compress a 5 GB file just for testing while listening to music at the same time. During the compression the music cut out frequently. Now I launched Far Cry 5 game and the lag was unimaginable to me. The game took nearly 10 minutes just to get me to the loading screen.
I have already uninstalled old AMD drivers and installed the latest Nvidia drivers.
I not sure what is causing this lag although I suspect it might be due to the single cooler fan and high CPU temp (98ºC).
If you have any idea please help.
Thanks.
