Every game is lagging on my pc from last 4 to 5 months Games which used to give 60 fps are down to 30 to 24 fps.For example WWE 2K18 which used to give 60fps now whenever I play the game it starts normally then after 15 to 30 seconds lag starts. Methods I have tired to fix the problem.
1: Various Virus scans. (Avast, Norton, Malwarebytes )
2: I have cleaned the dust from the parts of computer.
3: Updated the Graphics Card drivers.
4: Check the temperature and it's normal.
5: Format and reinstall the Windows (10)
6: Checked the Ram.
7: Used registry cleaner.
Here are My specs
Cpu: Core I7 7700K
Gpu: Rx 480 8gb
Memory: 16 Gb ram DDR 4
Motherboard: Gigabyte z270x ultra gaming

Yeah you are right. I was looking at the first pic by mistake for the "under load" results.

So yes you are thermal throttling and temps are high even when idle.

Check your thermal paste and if you have AIO check pump.
