Is 2D Complex Vector rendering done by GPU or CPU?

Im wondering because I score very well in a Passmark benchmark, except for the 2D tests in which my system does very bad in the Complex Vectors test, as well as the Windows Interface test...

Whatever might be causing this may also be the reason why im getting much lower fps in games for the last month..
 
Your games would not rely on the 2D processing, unless you are running older games.

You may want to actually list your specs and what games you are playing, also if anything changed in the last month, like you changing the resolution you play at.

I have seen people say they are getting less FPS then it turns out they went from a 720 to a 1080 monitor.

"Your games would not rely on the 2D processing, unless you are running older games." That's what I thought as well..but im getting about 100 less fps across all my games which I once had a full 300+fps in-- Overwatch, Quake Champs, even CSGO im only getting 280fps. This drop in fps has happened at the same time I started getting low benchmark results in 2D processing. I dont know if theyre related or not, but theyre both a symptom of the same issue, I believe.

8600K
GTX 1080
16GB 2400mhz RAM
960 EVO m.2 SSD
Z370M-ITX/AC mobo
2k 144hz monitor.

No, I havent changed resolution.. There's either a problem with all the Windows versions that have come out in the last 1.5 months, or im having a hardware problem..But anyway, I have a thread open somewhere else..

I just want to know more about Complex Vectors and what its related to, and how my system is failing to render as well as it used to back in January... Also Windows Interface test results have been far below acceptable.

James, I just read through that thread and others. Looks like it was a Win8 issue which was fixed in Win10 of 2015.. I guess the issue back again.. no new posts in that thread though..

I have found out today that when I do a fresh install of Win10 and run passmark, I get normal scores, but as soon as I let windows do its major updates, and I run passmark after, I get low scores again... Something in Windows updates is giving me low scores.

BUT, when I run games, no matter if Windows is updated or not, I am getting low fps...been like this since February.

So maybe my low fps and low 2D scores arent related to the same issue...
