Hello everyone,
Yesterday I upgraded my GPU from a GTX 770 to a GTX 1070. Once I installed the GPU and turned on my PC, it was running kind of slow. My first thought was drivers, so I updated and replaced the drivers using the Nvidia website. My PC started to run almost normally again. I say almost because I'm still having some issues. The first being my download speed within Chrome is going super slow. I normally get around 10+MBs and now its tanking. Programs like Steam seem to be unaffected. I also feel like videos on Youtube are not playing at 1080p (60fps when applicable) anymore.
I also noticed when I first installed the new GPU, my PC to significantly longer to load. Normally it takes less than ten seconds, but that time was at least doubled/tripled. Also, when I would sign in, my startup apps took almost five minutes for everything to fully load, where as they normally take 30 seconds at most. These last few problems seem to have dissipated, but it is worth mentioning I had these same issues when trying to install an SSD.
I'm tempted to just plug in my 770 again because my system ran great with it in. My specs are listed below. Any ideas on why this is happening?
CPU: Intel Core i7-4770K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor

Video Card: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1070 G1 Gaming 8gb
Case: Cooler Master HAF 922 (Black) ATX Mid Tower Case
Power Supply: Corsair Builder 600W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply
Optical Drive: Asus DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD Writer
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8.1 OEM 64-bit
Monitor: Asus VS247H-P 23.6" 1920x1080 Monitor
Keyboard: Microsoft SIDEWINDER X4 Wired Gaming Keyboard
Mouse: Razer Razer Naga 2014 Wired Laser Mouse
Thanks,
