So i built a new pc about 3 days ago it has not been working that good as it actually would, It started with when having many processes and mostly discord open at the same time as playing a game i get really hard lag spikes. I drop to about 1-10 fps when i move the mouse but if i dont move my mouse i get frequently 60-70 frames. And its not my cpu temps. My temps while at full load are under 50c

Mobo: Aorus by gigabyte GA-Z270X-Gaming K5
GPU: Windforce GTX 970
CPU: Intel I7 7700K
RAM: 16 GB Corsair 3200mhz DDR4

Does this happen in all games or only specific ones? I would try reinstalling or updating nividia drivers and setting your pc and gpu to performance mode

It keeps happening in the most games. Worst ones are PUBG and GTA V it keeps dropping to 1 fps while i got discord on at the same time. I have the latest drivers for all my components. I have tried reinstalling discord and steam and all the games. I got my pc on performance mode and when i play games without anything on in the backround the games dont lag at all. I dont get what the problem is..

I would reinstall windows, it can take a while but it is likely to fix most problems, I do think that your parts are slightly underperfoming too because you should be getting more than 60-70 fps in pubg and GTA 5

Yeah i think they are pretty much unpreforming. I think i will try a reinstall of windows tho.
