Hi, so im really confused I upgraded my cpu a while back to the i5 6600. (Not the K version as I had no intentions of overclocking however I know there is a work around to overclocking this version) but my csgo fps is lower than normal. I'm getting 300 all the way down to 120 fps and it bugs me. My computer specs are down below, if anyone has any info they can send my way it would be very appreciated. :)

My computer spec:

i5 6600
GTX 1070
16gb G Skills Ripjaws 2400mhz DDR
Gigabyte Z170x UD3
Windows 10

CPU: 74% Fluxuating
GPU: 27-45%

Csgo isn't a high gpu usage game. It's my stressful on the CPU.

Oh man, your ram is performing way below what it should. The GPU and CPU are performing below also. It's not good at all for new hardware.

Bypass the surge protector and plug it out not the wall and run the test again. This will see if the surge protecter is the issue and not giving quality power.

Another issue could be that outlet (rare if your house is a new house).

Lastly it could be your PSU.

there is 3 more things you can do to test your PC:

Remove your GPU and move your ram into a different slot then run UserBenchmark again.

if you have a different PSU, you can see if its your PSU.

Not sure if you Tested your Memory yet But:
First test
"Click Start, type mdsched.exe in the Search box, and then press Enter."

Second
Boot Into the System Recovery. "Pressing F8 when rebooting your PC
Do the Windows Memory Diagnostic.
It will run and you can see of there is an error code anywhere. This involves some looking after it finishes. It doesnt just print an error code in front of you. There is different sections where it test and you just have to scroll down.



I hope this helps a little. I had the same problem and what it was for my was corrupted system memory.
