Low FPS despite low usage of CPU and GPU

Hey guys,

 

I had to recover my system lately. Before that everything run perfectly fine, high fps no drops, nothing to complain. After I recovered my system with a back-up games like GTA V, BF1, Mass Effect Andromeda or Cities Skylines don't work properly no more. They barely reach  60 fps, and stay at 30 - 40 FPS average. 

My mobo, CPU and GPU drivers are all updated, thermals are fine too (CPU ~ 60°C ; GPU ~ 50°C). According to NZXT in-game Overlay the usage of both are below 50%. The task manager shows that there is no other application leaching any performance.

 

I'm running a Intel i7 7700k at 4,8 Ghz OC with a NZXT X62 and a Galax GTX 1070 HOF edition on a Aorus Gaming Z270-K7. My OS and the games are installed on my SSD.

I checked device manager, Nvidia drivers, it's all up to date. BIOS got updated today.
