My computer is running really poorly, the cpu usage is running super low, it has gotten down to 0% usage. I have checked to make sure that nothing in in the fan or anything that could cause it to auto throttle, but I have also reinstalled windows. Does anyone have a fix, or at least a reason why my computer is preforming so poorly?

Umm... I know it runs at 3.30 GHz frequency. I don't know about voltage.
 
Go into your BIOS settings and ensure everything is standard and nothing is set to low usage etc.
Optionally you can just do a CMOS clear (there'll be a button or a jumper) to reset your motherboard to factory settings, just make sure you remove any storage devices first to ensure that they are not affected, some weird stuff can happen sometimes.
