So a while back, my cpu benchmark scores were up to par with other similar cpu's. But recently, when i test my cpu using cpuz, the scores are significantly lower.

Here is the info:

My i5 6600k is way lower than a normal i5 6600k as you can see in that screenshot.

Please, i'll appreciate it if someone could help me with this problem because i've seen a drop in fps in games as well.

Yes, and I also fixed the issue. The audio device graph isolation process was silently taking up a lot of my cpu so that means my cpu couldn't perform at the max capacity. Thanks for your response reedo_43.
