Hello.
A week ago i've reset my PC, since then most games i have played (without considering light ones) have been lagging.
Restarting the PC may usually helps with the issue, but doesn't fix it since the lag comes back after a while. I did not measure fps drops but we're talking about dropping to 10/20 fps, while at the start of the gameplay there are no lag problems, they appear later.
I believe drivers are all up to date (downloaded from the seller's websites). The games in question are Dark Souls Remasted and Dark Souls 3, both have the same kind of problem. Power mode is High Perfomance. Tried lowering the settings of both games but i have more than enough to run the first game and the minimum ones for the second one. I did not have this kind of problems BEFORE resetting the PC, ergo the answer lies here somewhere.
Might be hardware worsening ? Any way to confirm that ? I've heard that maybe leaving my PC a few nights on so Windows can fully sort itself out. If someone can confirm this,or give another kind of solution, i'II be more than happy. Thanks.
