Question Computer running slow while playing world of warcraft

[darkknightrasil]

Playing World of Warcraft, I have extreme delay and lag which should not be happening. I built m PC a few years ago after my last one died which lasted 11 years or so that should have been replaced a bit before that.

I am running on pretty much 10-30 FPS anywhere i go, last night in raid i ran at 10 Frames per second which froze my screen on bosses. wondering if it is something to do with my computer itself or if i need upgrade anything else. Issue tends to be in game only as I can stream videos on one screen while playing games even though the game is slow.

I've had my PC since a year after the 3080 was released i believe it will be 4 years later this year.
CPU:
Intel Core I9 10900K 3.70 GHz
Motherboard: ROG Maximus XII Hero
RAM: DDR4 32GB (2 sticks 16x2) Can expand to 2 additional slots
Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080
Hard Drive: SSD Evo 500g (only WoW is used on it along with minor things) all other program files are stashed on other hard drives.


I also have 2 monitors that are 8 and 7 years old if this is a cause for it.

The original PSU for my PC had to be replaced due to needing a stronger PSU. The initial one I had bought was a Seasonic Focus Plus 750 Gold SSR-750FX 750W 80+ Gold ATX12V but was not able to keep up with my pc.

I've had my PC sice a year after the 3080 was released i believe it will be 4 years later this year.

When posting a thread of troubleshooting nature, it's customary to include your full system's specs. Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.

Did you remove all GPU drivers(Intel, AMD and Nvidia) in Safe Mode using DDU, then manually installing the latest GPU driver sourced from Nvidia's support site in an elevated command, i.e, Right click installer>Run as Administrator?

i edited my post thank you for the update.

I have not tried to remove all GPU Drivers in safe mode.

How full is that SSD? Start with running DDU to clear out Nvidia drivers, and install Nvidia driver 566.36. Make sure all addons are up to date. If that does nothing, you might want to try moving your WTF and Cache folders to a different location, to back them up, and start the game to let it create new ones.

Was it running better before and only recently got slow?
Does it get better when you reduce graphical settings?
Have you tried disabling all the addons to see if it improves?

Your computer is really good, I am surprised by your results and agree something is amiss.

cpu is throttling

89c is extremely hot it could be clocking to high and hitting a 100c at intervials which could cause the freezing.

under extreme tweaker set a offset on your core voltage to negative - 0.050 leave cores to clock to whatever they want to all your doing is telling the cpu to pull power if you let the motherboard decide the core frequency it will clock as high as it can on that power. drop and a cooler chip may even clock higher.

undervolting will not damage the cpu ( overclocking does all we are doing is dropping the power it can pull.)

you can go higher in the negatives i find doing about 0.1 is best as that removes 1 v just dont do anything to core clock let the board decide.


ive done this with ryzen 5900x and didnt lose any performance and it now keeps the cpu at 70c.
( im aware its a diffrent platform and cpu just a example of what undervolting can do.)

i used to hit close to 87c
