Hello to Everybody

For Christmas I replaced my old HDD with a new SSD, I replaced my old 8GB ram with 16 GB and I upgraded from Win 7 64 bit to Win 10 Pro 64 bit.

You can see my full specs here:


My system is now smoother and quicker than before, the boot is waaaaay faster... summing up: everything as planned.

Everything BUT this:

With my old system I was in the middle of the storyline with the game Kingdom Come: Deliverance, which I played at 1080p, settings ULTRA, and an average framerate of 50 fps.

Now my framerate is about 35 fps, sometimes going down to 30, 20, even to 15 in some situations...

The framerate I get with the new new system is 35/40% less than the old system.

3D Mark tells me that my new system is ok:

New System:
WIN10 16GB SSD -- Driver 461.09 -- 3DMark Firestrike: 9543

Old system:
WIN 7 8GB HDD
Driver 436.48 -- 3DMark Firestrike: 9522
Driver 419.35 -- 3DMark Firestrike: 8955
Driver 417.22 -- 3DMark Firestrike: 9653


So... Why the framerate drop in the game?
