So I’ve been having a couple of issues with windows 10 lately for which I couldn’t get any solution; my pc boots up super slow (45 seconds) even with the kingston ssd, it wont go to sleep i have the power on/off button set to also put my pc to sleep, however most of the times only my monitor closes and everything else (my keyboard, mouse, and pc) stays up. Another problem is fps drops in rainbow 6 and whenever the fps drops if i change any of the in game display settings it goes back up to 120-140fps. I’ve searched alot for these problems and couldn’t find a solution for any of them. So im not sure if i should reset the windows or clean install windows or completely reinstall windows with the ISO file.

Both would essentially do the same thing, but I personally would try to reset Windows first before doing a clean install.

I don't know what the first one is caused by. But second is purely about GPU drivers. Reinstalling Windows probably won't fix it if you end up with same driver version.

several things kan do this.. like 2 instances of aorus engine running at the same time kills your system. can almost not log on. 

start looking at what are starting with windows, and stop all of them. later add one and one.

I have the latest drivers installed though. Should i go to the older version?

That's what I would do. Or try with beta drivers.
