SSD causing massive FPS drops?

[coolbr3eze]

I recently upgraded my HDD to an EVO 850 1TB SSD card and have been experiencing some intense FPS drops every since I did. The SSD was installed clean, I unplugged the HDD and then plugged in the SSD, did an install of windows 7 and then fresh installed every program that I wanted. Thing is that now some of my games are quite literally unplayable now due to the FPS drops. I typically average about 150 fps on League of Legends, capped, on my HDD but now with my SSD I can barely hit 40 FPS and this is causing me to have some serious problems with play. It also causes a problem with Battlefield 1 in the sense that its totally unplayable now, normally I would average about 30-40 fps on the HDD, which while not great was still playable, now it sits around 14-18 FPS which makes the game totally unplayable.

My system stats:

AMD FX 8120 8-core processor, 3.1 GHz
16 GB of RAM
AMD Radeon R9 390 GPU
Samsung EVO 850 1TB SSD
Windows 7 Home Premium OS

If you need any further information I'll be glad to provide, just may need a walkthrough on how to get it.

Did you install your motherboards drivers?

I guess not? Have no idea where I would even look to find the drivers for the motherboard, its about 7 years old and any discs or whatnot that I might have had with it have long since been lost. All I know is that its an AS Rock motherboard. Googling the drivers for it shows a bunch of driver downloads but they seem to all be for the audio, could that be what I am missing?
