Something is wrong with my PC

[NRGPlaysBG]

Hello. Everybody I have problem with my PC. I recently built it. It has GTX 1060 an I7-6700 processor (non-k) 8gb of ram and 1tb HDD. The problem is that I have troubles playing a lot of games. I am not able to run Arma 3 smoothly on High and Watch Dogs 2 which is stuttering as hell when even playing on low. I need help. What can be causing this? I've watched a lot of tutorials on how to fix this but nothing is working. I scanned my PC for viruses but still no solution.

Edit: I saw something strange while I was playing Watch Dogs 2. The game was not frozen at all. I mean there was the saving icon which was pretty smooth and sometimes I was seeing the textures and the shadows appearing in front of me.

Screen resolution ? Any background programs ? Uninstall your antivirus, it takes a lot of CPU power and RAM for nothing. What hard drive are you using ? (SATA III or II ?)

Plug your monitor into your GPU not your motherboard

Did you reformat and reinstall your OS when you built your new PC?

What about CPU cooling ? Is it decent ? Is there enough (and not too much) thermal compound ? Maybe your CPU is thermal throttling.

CPU Cooling: Stock one fan. Well yes. Stock thermal compound. My CPU was keeping max 52 Celsius even when the game was freezing.

Check your CPU/GPU usage and while in-game.
