Hi there. I've recently been having major FPS drops in games such as BF1, CS:GO and COD BO3 I used to run them on max settings and I got no less than 80 fps on BF1, 120 on BO3 and 200+ on CS:GO but now I cant even reach past 60 on them, on CS:GO the frames spike from 150 to 50 randomly throughout games. I have no idea what the problem might be, I mean everything was fine when got the card, but for a month now I've really been struggling. I have uninstalled nvidia drivers and reinstalled them but the problem still stays. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
specs:
EVGA GTX 1070 FTW
I7 7700K
16GB DDR4 RAM at 2133MHz
850W Antec power supply
Gigabyte Aorus gaming 5 motherboard

I have tried that, but I installed them again? Should I leave them uninstalled and then see what happens?

Yeah, never have drivers to a GPU you dont got installed or it will interfere.

So I uninstalled the newest drivers, and installed the previous drivers, I'm getting better FPS, but it's still not what I used to get, BF1 is still unplayable due to the FPS lag, I don't get it...

What do you mean by previous drivers? If you have drivers that are not GTX 1070's uninstall them, but if they are GTX 1070 drivers that are up to date then get those and uninstall the rest.

Yes ofcourse I only have GTX 1070 drivers on my PC. But now I uninstalled the latest 1070 drivers to see if it helps and it did, I uninstalled the newest drivers and installed the previous 1070 drivers and my FPS seems to be better, but I still don't get the frames I am supposed to get.

From this post http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-3105760/fps-lag-gtx-1070/page-2.html tryohazard says this "If you have windows 10, and your FPS is capping at 30fps, click cortana and type in "xbox". Sign in or make an account (the bastards) and there is a setting about recording/DVR. turn that garbage right off. hope this fixed your problem". See if that works also check in any other program if NVIDIA gots one like AMD does (AMDs is Catalyst/Radeon Settings and do the same.

It also states.

"Clean install of 375.70 drivers.

In the NVIDIA Control Panel:"
