Posted June 30, 2018 Hello i have been dealing with this problem for months now, and cant find any solution to it. My PC is running very poorly with high input lag, lower fps then before and CPU usage 90%-100% in all games. My CPU temperatures are fine (30-45 degrees). Games are pretty much unplayable because of the lag Things i have tried - Re seating parts and CPU Fan Doing a full re install of windows (this indicates to me that it is probably a hardware issue) Tried different power outlets Tried different power board Clean the CPU and other part sockets and dusted PC Tried it with a different hard drive Tried it in another house Specs - GPU - GTX 1060 6gb CPU - Intel i5 7600K Ram - 16GB DDR4 Mobo - Z270 Any help or suggestions of any kind would be really appreciated because I am so frustrated with this.

Posted June 30, 2018 I have tired linux? You can run some benchmark/games in linux and see if the problem persist. I have found my laptop rarely fan ramp on my laptop compare to windows. Window seems like to randomly use cpu when just watching a video. See if the problems persist on linux, it could be just windows drivers. Magical Pineapples
