I've been getting decreased performance in games (of up to 40 FPS) since rolling back and reinstalling a driver that was causing my computer to blue screen every hour or so. RAM usage also idles at around 60% after being on for only a few hours. I did a scan with MalwareBytes and it found nothing virus wise. This only started after I fixed the driver issue.
