New PC and very poor graphics and fps on all my games

[laxman5984]

EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 Founders Edition GPU
Intel I7-6700k 4.00GHz CPU
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
Asus Z170-A Motherboard
Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 DRAM 3000MHz
Corsair RM850x PSU


So I recently just built my first PC (less than 2 weeks ago), and i'm getting very poor graphic quality and extremely low fps in all the games i play (H1Z1 10-20 FPS, League of Legends around 200 when not in a fight but drops to 40 alot, CS:GO around 150 on medium settings). I've chatted with Nvidia support multiple times with no success. Any help is appreciated and I hope someone knows what the problems is.

What are your temps? The 212 isn't very good at cooling 6 and 7 series chips.

The highest CPU temp I've had while playing anything was 58 C, and around 32 C at idle. I originally had the corsair h100i v2 but something was wrong with it and I couldn't figure out what so I send it back and am currently waiting for the new one to arrive. My cpu temp was at 90 C at idle with it.

I have to ask, do you have the monitor plugged into the motherboard or the video card.

It's in my graphics card.

Someone please help! Could my motherboard or cpu be damaged or something?

Each person told me different ways to set up my 3D settings. Told me to try a different hdmi and told me to make a new user on windows. None of these really did much. In h1z1 it is really studdery and slow. I also want to add on h1z1 my gpu is only at 7% load while my cpu is at 98%. I haven't seen my gpu higher than 20% on any game

Sounds more like GPU issue then. Try uninstalling drivers and reinstalling.

while my cpu is at 98%

When is it at 98% ? What is your cpu when idle ? If its busy while you're doing nothing, maybe that is the issue. Be nice to see a screenshot of what its spending that 98% on.

I have done that twice before, once from the disk that came with the card, and once from nvidia website

It was at 98% when i was trying to play h1z1 with some friends the other night. I had that and discord open.

So just an update, I just tested my gpu in a friend's computer with an i7-4790k and it works perfectly fine. Any ideas?

Thank you guys for all the suggestions and help. I figured it out though. I think my windows was corrupt or something because I did a fresh OS install and it seems to be working great!!
