So a couple weeks ago one of my amazing wonderful kids stuck the end of a headphone cord into the USB 3.0 port on top of the PC and it fried the Motherboard. I found the exact motherboard I use on eBay (ASUS Z-97 A) I installed it and I re-activated Windows 10 PRO with a new key that I bought and everything has been working great. Except video games. Games like Far Car 4 are dropping FPS and in some cases can't get above 20 FPS. So I updated the NVIDIA driver (I have a GTX 1070) and did a reboot and the games started working and playing great again! But now it's back to what it was doing before, low FPS on higher end games. I did another reboot and still not working.
I read that after replacing a MB you need to do a fresh install of Windows but this is the same exact MB so is that still the case? Is there anything else I can try WITHOUT having to re-install Windows? I'm trying desperately to not have to go that route. Thanks for any help you can give!
