Hi guys. So I am running a GeForce GTX 970, I-7 4790k 4 GHZ, 16 GB RAM, Win 10 home.
Since I built this PC I have been playing games like Fallout 4, Dota 2, Overwatch.... etc... all on ultra settings with excellent performance. Today though I turned on my computer and went to play a game and noticed a HUGE drop in framerate. I tried multiple games, both online and offline, and had the same result.
I've restarted my PC
I've dusted it out - even though it wasn't very dusty to begin with
I've verified that my graphics driver is up to date via Nvidia Geforce experience and the Nvidia website
I've checked my temps - All seem to be normal
I've checked my latency - Definitely not a lag issue
I've done a malware scan with Malwarebytes - Found a few threats and got rid of them... But did not fix the problem.
And I don't know what else to do to further troubleshoot. I haven't made any recent hardware changes, Just the other day I was gaming normally.
Also I seem to be getting a mobo code 04 which is pci resource allocation error. out of resources.
I've tried re-seating all my RAM and the GPU
I've brought up task manager and briefly monitored usage while in game and all seems normal
