Hi Everyone,

So yeah exactly that.

Everythings have been fine now all of a sudden my game FPS is near halved and any mouse movement absolutely destroys my FPS.

I've turned my mouse polling rate down from 1000 to 125 (changing to 500 did nothing) and that's helped, and made things playable, but stuff like esports games are a no-go atm due to insane micro stutters.

I've Attached system info below, and here's some steps I've done to try and fix it:

DDU'd
Updated all drivers to the newest version
tried rolling back display drivers (did nothing so updated them again)
ran SFC
ran Malwarebytes
disabled any background tasks
Toggled game mode
Ran windows in performance mode
removed overclocks (then reapplied them because it made no difference)
Now I'm pretty much stuck.

Can someone help? super stuck on this one :/

Thanks in advance :)

System info (yes I know windows 11 but it's not caused an issue until all of a sudden today) :
