CPU suddenly slow?!?!?!

[Bigjamesr]

Hello,

I was playing CS:GO and my Frames just dropped from 200 to 30- Since then they have never gone up, the startup is also slow. I cleaned my pc and virus scanded it. (With 360 Security)

Ive turned off the Xbox DVR thing. and other things and it when up to 40-50 but still not to the original that i had before.

I dont know if i may have to clean it? or is it overheating somehow, not enough RAM?? not sure.

 

PC Specs:

Geforce GTX 980 Ti

Intel i7-6700K CPU (4.00Ghz)

31.95GB RAM

2560 x 1440,59Hz

Windows 10

Can you stress the CPU and show temperatures using CoreTemp, HWMonitor, etc?

If it worked before with "same settings", you don't need moar ram. I would look into your case. Look for dust and dirt, and how well them fans are spinning.

basically imposible to see thread on dark theme please fix your post

Is the cpu clock ramping up during gameplay?

Also what's up with the 50%ish usage on disk 0 and 1, that could be impacting performance if your game is on one or both of those.

The the game is running, alt-tab and look at task manager. It will tell you what your current speed is. It also show cpu utilisation. if it's pinned at 100% then that's your problem.

Where did you install CS;GO?

i mean what ssd / hdd are you using ? 

A tool like speccy would be pretty good for diagnostics imo.

Use Intel Extreme Tuning Utility.

Aida64 is good.

download cpu z 

run

go into "bench"

click "stress"

don't click stop, and go back to the main tab

snap screen

 

and check temps at the same time

Still the same i think

and on my C

So it isn't a hdd speed problem.

If the cpu clock speed is still at 0.76ghz when the game is running then we've found the problem. The only reliable fix I know of is to disable Intel speedstep which will lock the cpu at around 4.0ghz.

go to energy settings and set the pc to high performance , or install throttlestop and tell your CPU to stay at a certain speed

I used a different tool ( Intel Extreme Tuning Utility ), here are the results.
