Hello there guys!
I've recently upgraded my computer from a Palit GTX 770 2GB to a MSI GTX 1070 X G8. It's paired with an i5 4690k @stock and 8 gigs of single channel DDR3 RAM.
I noticed really quickly that my performance sometimes isn't as good as it used to be.
For example I could maintain 120 fps in LoL about 99% of the time. Now it's dropping way more often below 120 than before. I've spent quite some time checking stuff with HWMonitor etc. I could see pretty quickly that my CPU usage is getting really close to 100% on all cores even though it's running at boosted 3.8 which I think shouldn't happen or did happen before when I played LoL on my i5.
Now the main reason I bought the card was to get stable 60 fps in Ghost Recons Wildlands as my 770 was on 99% usage and couldn't offer smooth gameplay. The 1070 has no problem load wise but I still can't even reach anything near stable 60 fps on low settings. Yet again the CPU Load reaching 100%. The gameplay feels smoother though(15-20 more fps scoped).
Here's what I tried to do:
Any other recommondations what to do/try?
Thanks for helping!

Here's what I tried to do:
-reinstalled NVIDIA Drivers multiple times
-reinstalled LoL
-installed 1 year worth of Windows 7 updates
-benchmarked the i5 using CPU Z, seemed alright
-checked the CPU clockspeeds and temps, seemed alright? (max. 60° i think)
Any other recommondations what to do/try?
