Every game starts to lag in 4-5 minutes after I start the game. This is started almost a week ago, I tried to find a solution online but none have helped me so far so I finally decided to post my problem here. Now by every game, I mean almost each and every game lags after few minutes(except for CS 1.6, don't know why). Even the games that I run on Bluestacks (Governor of Poker, FIFA mobile, etc.) or on Windows store (Asphalt Extreme or Asphalt 8) start to lag(this is the limit, its unbelievable!). I am sure that there is no issue with the temperatures of GPU and CPU, I have been using this PC since almost 3 years. I don't know if there's a layer of dirt in between cooler and the CPU but other than that I have done almost everything I can. I have checked that the temps are ok, PSU is proper(been using it since 3 yrs), RAM is good enough(8GB). I have provided proper specs of my rig below right from DxDiag:

I cleaned the dirt between CPU and its cooler, seems as if the solution I kept as the last resort was my solution after all.
