I am playing Destiny 2 on 1920x1080p All Low settings and am failing to get more than 35 fps.
My CPU Usage is 25% and GPU is 45% in game.
My specs are:
  • CPU: Intel Core i7-7700HQ.
  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 (4GB GDDR5)
  • Display: 15.6”, Full HD (1920 x 1080), TN.
  • Storage: 256GB SSD + 1000GB HDD.
  • RAM: 1x16GB DDR4.
I ran a user benchmark test and got these results: userbenchmark.com/UserRun/26186274
I really don't know what to do. It is getting near impossible to play. If anybody could help that would be great.
 
Solution
Malware can do that. I would start with a scan from malwarebytes or something.

What are you temperatures at idle and load? CPU and GPU.
Is the performance always low while gaming?
Are all programs/apps with noticeable degraded performance?

Was there any difference between before OC and after ?

Is the situation new, or has it always being a problem?

Do you built the computer yourself?

Have you running some CPU intensive process in the background? (malware? two antivirus programs running simultaneously?)

I am running a laptop Asus Rog Strix GL553 I did not overclock anything and the situation has been going on but it has never been this bad. The fps is so unplayable that I decided to ask for help. I really want to figure this out. I just have discord and destiny 2 open. I might have malware but I dont see how that would lower my performance. Thanks for the help I want to fix this asap.
