Hello, i have recently moved house and ever since i have had a HUGE fps decrease and very noticeable stutter lag. The fps has dropped from around 250-300 to 99-130 (CSGO). My monitor is plugged into my graphics card, not my motherboard and nothing has changed with the PC internally so my only thoughts are that maybe the power outlets in this new house are not giving out enough power? I'm not sure. Any help or tips would be appreciated.

 

Specs - 

GPU - GTX 1060 6GB

CPU - Intel i5 7600K

RAM - 16GB DDR4

 

Thanks.

I would just verify some simple things, is your CMOS battery dead or missing, meaning your overclock disappeared when you unplugged the tower, how are your temps, maybe your CPU cooler shifted during the move and the dried thermal compound isn't making great contact afterwards.

 

Improper voltage is possible but not terribly common, using your favorite monitoring software check your 12V, 5V, and 3.3V voltages if they're all correct while under load then your power supply is making due with whatever voltage is going in it.
