Fps drops in almost all games on good pc

I have recently upgraded my pc, I was really exited to play some GTAV when I kept getting fps drops from 60 - 30 (vsync on) . Im not sure what the problem is, but I think it is either ram or my hdd. Either way it has to be some sort of bottleneck.

Specs:

Asus turbo GTX 1060 6GB
amd ryzen 1600x @3.6 Ghz
G.SKILL F4-2133C DDR4 1x8GB
Toshiba DT01ACA050 500GB
Asus Prime B350M-A
cpu cooler: Arctic Pro Low Noise [silent class II]
[zert. Gaming] Low Noise 650Watt

Games that I have been getting fps drops in:
GTAV 60 - 30/40 (Vsync - even at low graphics settings)
Gmod 60 - 30 (roleplay with a bunch of mods)
H1Z1 60 - 40 (when at moving in a car - gets better the lower the render distance)
Dying Light 60 - 40 (the occasional drop not often)
Rainbow six seige 60 - 50

Some benchmark scores:
http://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/5264961

edit: I checked cpu & gpu usage while playing GTAV and the cpu usage never goes over 20 - 40%, the GPU Usage was stuck 1000mhz untill I put up the setting and then it was stuck to 2000mhz. I amreally confused to what is happening.

If anybody knows what I need to replace that would be much appreciated :3

If you have the latest windows 10 creators update, you are not the only one affected. There is some bug that cause fps loss. Hope it's fixed in the next update.

Im pretty sure its a hardware problem

Did the FPS drops start happening recently, or have you been experiencing them from day one with your machine?

Did you recently change the hardware, & if so did you try putting the old hardware back in?

Did you recently update video drivers, or try rolling back video drivers?

Did you try adjusting your resolution/quality settings to see if you still had FPS drops?

Considering that a) you haven't provided any information about the troubleshooting (if any) that you've done to try & fix the problem, & b) the link you provided for your benchmarks even states

Overall this PC is performing as expected (60th percentile). This means that out of 100 PCs with exactly the same components, 40 performed better. The overall PC percentile is the average of each of its individual components.
Processor
With a brilliant single core score, this CPU is the business: It demolishes everyday tasks such as web browsing, office apps and audio/video playback. Additionally this processor can handle typical workstation, and even moderate server workloads. Finally, with a gaming score of 87.8%, this CPUs suitability for 3D gaming is excellent.
Graphics
73.1% is a good 3D score. This GPU can handle the majority of recent games at high resolutions and ultra detail levels.

Bluntly stating that you think it's 100% a hardware issue & dismissing any other explanation seems pretty arrogant. And if you already "know" it's a hardware issue, then you have 2 options: RMA the "defective" hardware, or buy replacement hardware. You didn't need to come to the forum for either of those options.

1. As soon as I upgraded Motherboard,cpu,gpu, and ram
2. I did not try putting the old hardaware back in, because I strongly believe that is a hardware problem. My reasoning behind that is; I have tried deleting & reinstalling all drivers, games, windows 10, checked for thermal throttling for gpu and cpu, checked for any malware, played witth the settings e.g in GTAV the only thing that makes a significant change is turning MSAA to off making the game look sheit(not what I want from my PC), and I have desperatly also tried overclocking CPU & GPU which actually helped but made the pc crash uppon launching certain games i.e R6S.
3. ↑
4. ↑
5.If you actually took some time to look at the benchmark scores, you could see that the RAM is performing just as other, which is bad because the others also did bad. Also the harddrive was very slow, which could mean that it cant catch up with the load, causing stuttters. BUT ↓ ''im on a budget I cant just go and buy an SSD and it does nothing to fix it''

6. How am I arrogant for asking for help? as proven above it HAS to be a hardware problem. I was just asking what to replace because im on a budget I cant just go and buy an SSD and it does nothing to fix it.

That power supply you got sounds pretty shady to me. I can't even find it on Google (unless you just decided to not type out the entire name of it)

As for the HDD, as long as it's 7200RPM it shouldn't really cause any stutters, just slightly slower load times honestly.

Judging from your situation though, it sounds like a GPU problem if you've already re-installed everything (and yes, reinstalling Windows 10 100%) Have you done any stress test to confirm this? I'd recommend AIDA64 for the CPU stress test, or Haven/Valley for the GPU stress test. You should also try installing the monitoring software for your GPU (can usually be found depending on what brand your GPU is)

It could also be a RAM problem judging from your benchmark scores, with the RAM apparently performing "way below" then normal. Have you done any RAM test to maximize the load on it just to see if it'll crash? You should also try checking for errors on either the HDD or RAM as well just to be sure. Over-all, I'd replace the RAM 1st to see if it fixes anything, as for the HDD, it seems to be performing adequately (you could do another test on it and get a way completely different bench for it on UserBenchmark, not entirely sure why this is though)
