hello everyone I am not going to waste anyone time. See I have a gtx 1070, ryzen 3 1200, 2400mhz ram of corsair, 500 watts psu , msi a320m pro vh plus mobo, 1 tb hdd. I am getting 150 to 40 fps in csgo and 30 to 50 in gta 5 and also the texture doesn't load. I don't know what's the problem. I have tested temps my gpu max at 80c and cpu at 71c durung a stress test whose results are fine i.e 3200 in heaven benchmark @ extreme and resolution set to 1600x900 fps was above 110. tested my hdd which is fine.
my ram also looks good. I have reinstalled windows. these game were working fine, but after I found a trojan in the system this problem occurred but I have ran the antivirus and also reinstall a fresh copy of windows as mentioned above. please help.....I have working this for months now please

I just research about it isn't a indian company. I am sorry didn't mean to write any statements that is kind of rude..... I am using artis 500 watt gold rated psu that is gold in color.

Oof, that's the kind of thing I was worried about and that's why the question was asked. This isn't a gold-rated PSU, there's no such actual rating provided for this PSU. It's the run-of-the-mill garbage PSU that a dodgy manufacturer slapped the word gold on and painted gold. An actual 80 Plus Gold power supply would likely cost about five times as much as this.

Even in the best-case scenario, in which it's the best PSU in the world and the specs are honest, there's less than 300W available of +12V power. It's absolutely shocking that you...

A few other points to note:
  1. Using only a single stick of RAM means your system is running the RAM in single-channel mode. That hurts performance. You want a matched pair of sticks so that they will run in dual-channel mode.
  2. Ryzen tends to like faster RAM, so the 2400MHz RAM you have is holding it back some.

Yes but see the games were running fine sometime ago I just want the lost performance.

I would uninstall your graphics card completely and reinstall with the most up-to-date driver. Make sure all the power pins are connected on your GPU and

Afterward, your system is most hurt by:
  • Running only 1 stick of RAM. Ideally, get a matched pair. Less ideally, grab another 8BG stick @2400mhz. The Ryzen 3 1200 only supports DDR4-2666, so you are pretty close and it's not worth sweating all that much at this point if you are sticking with the Ryzen 3 1200.
  • Next, you are a little hobbled by your CPU. The 1070 GPU is pretty beasty, but it can only work as fast as the instructions it gets from the CPU. Think about a dump truck (GPU) working in tandem with a loader (CPU). If the dump truck can carry more than the loader can give it, it will sit around doing nothing much of the time. If the loader can move tons of dirt, but the dump truck has very little capacity, the dump truck will sit around forever. You would benefit from a beefier CPU to match your GPU. A Ryzen 7 2700x would match very well.
Good luck!

Thank you for the post I will try to reconnect the power points, but I only want the performance that was lost i.e the pc was working fine sometime ago. And suddenly this problem occurred.
 
When is this "some time ago" you keep mentioning? The 1200 was a budget chip when it was released 2 years ago, and you have it paired with what was the 2nd-fastest video card on the market at the time. To add to that, the CPU which needs dual channel high speed RAM to run as well as it does is being starved with your configuration. So I don't know what you had "some time ago" but here and now you need a faster CPU and another stick of RAM to get the most out of that video card.

See sometime ago means before 2 weeks the pc was running fine with csgo staying stable at 250 fps and GTA 5 at 60 fps and suddenly how come I have a fps drop...I think there must be some changes in the setting....... Thanks for the post

So if it started with the trojan and hasn't gone away since, it is possible some part of the virus is still in your system. The best way to be sure a virus is gone is to back up everything, wipe the drive, then reinstall.
Can you please explain the steps, like I have reinstall windows from a pendrive..... But if you can explain the steps it would really be grateful....
 
Just because you formatted doesn't necessarily mean the trojan problem went away. Your AV may have have found and eliminated it, but if you got it say on some site you frequent, it could have come back.

Also, if the trojan was quarantined, which is best to do and can keep it from being an ongoing problem, formatting may have erased any such action.

Malwarebytes is good, but I recommend just using their standard tool, because it also scans for trojans. I also use their anti root-kit tool.

Out of curiosity though, what PSU are you using?

It's gold rated local indian company but psi can't be a problem because benchmark are working fine. Thanks for the post I will try antiroot tool..since I have tried Malwarebytes...

And that "gold rated local indian company" is? People ask questions for good reasons; nobody's sitting at your PC to look for themselves so every question you don't answer is information someone needs that they're not getting.

I just research about it isn't a indian company. I am sorry didn't mean to write any statements that is kind of rude..... I am using artis 500 watt gold rated psu that is gold in color.

I would not do any further testing until you have something safe in the mix. It's quite possible you've already damaged the GPU given the information you've provided about textures not loading.
