I have been trying to diagnose the problem with my pc. I built this pc 3 years ago and started having problems a month or two ago. I am getting 50 fps on medium graphics on warzone with drops to 10-30 fps every few seconds. I am also having an issue of my whole pc freezing up when booting a game. When I first had this problem, I reinstalled windows and while my pc ran better for about a day, it quickly reverted back to running poorly. I updated my bios after this and the issue persisted. I then thought it could be my RAM so I upgraded to what is listed above and reinstalled windows once again after replacing my ram. My issue continued and I consulted with my friends and I decided to upgrade my CPU cooler. Although the temperatures on my cpu were not high, I figured it could not hurt. This did nothing to help my issue. I then thought maybe there was a problem with my m.2 ssd so I cloned my old one and replaced it with the one listed above. This also did not fix my issue. The temperatures on both my cpu and gpu are normal. I am wondering if anyone can give me some tips on how to correctly diagnose what the issue is? I do not want to spend any more money on replacement parts unless I know it will solve the issue.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

Try and use DDU to remove all GPU drivers from your platform, then manually reinstall with the latest GPU drivers from Nvidia's support site, in an elevated command, i.e, Right click installer>Run as Administrator.

BIOS version for your motherboard? I'd have tried with a brand new OS install to rule out a corrupt OS.

I just used ddu and removed the GPU drivers, manually installed the new drivers in admin, and updated the bios to the latest version. I have already reinstalled windows twice, would that not rule out a corrupt OS? I did run DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth in admin CMD as well as SFC Scan. Should I still reinstall windows again?

These fixes did seemed to have helped a little bit but not by much.
