1.Check the temp of the gpu/cpu while gaming if it hits the thermal limit it will throttle down to prevent if from overheating and decrease performance and it could be the cause.

2.If u store ur games in a mechanical hdd check for fragmented files (if any) defrag it immediately with disk defragment tools ( i doubt this is the issues but u could try )

I have done all that it got a little bit better but I also decided to try Cam to read temps and usage. Cam is telling me my CPU is running at 100% at only 799 MHZ

while my Task manager is telling me my CPU is about 13% This was while I was streaming over watch and I also had Youtube as well.
