There's nothing wrong with your specs; should be performing great. Sounds like some other process is running on your computer and hogging all the resources. A full reinstall may help, but before anything that drastic, perhaps see if you can identify the offending program and disable it. (Viruses are also notorious for doing this, but the principle is the same).
Also, if the games you are playing are online, it could indicate issues with your internet connection, especially if you're playing over wifi. Any of that apply?

I do not think that this has anything to do with Windows 10 since I had Witcher 3 issues on W7 as well.
The problem went away after I replaced the thermal paste but only for a few days.
Then it came back.
This is why I thought that it must be thermal paste so I ordered new one and tried it again but it did not help.
Please take a look at these 2 pictures and tell me if I have put thermal paste on correctly.
Thank you.

Thermal paste shouldn't have anything to do with it, unless the CPU is getting so hot that it's being throttled to prevent overheating. Have you checked your temperatures while gaming?
The paste maybe looks a little thick, but not enough to be alarming. In any case, checking your temperatures is the way to rule that in or out.

Either a driver issue , or possibly the pc is choking because its lacking resources.
Check task manager to see what is using RAM and cpu cycles
