Hyper-V affecting game performance?

Solution
If it's just there, and you aren't using it, then it won't have any affect. Like having other games installed.

I've used this for shutting down useless services.

Unfortunately selected answer is wrong.
Recently I noticed lower fps in specific scenarios, CPU temp increase (louder fan noise) and BCLK clock fluctuation.
In games in CPU-bound scenarios fps dropped from ~102 to ~88 and Cinebench multicore results regressed by 8-9%.

For the reference my CPU is R7 2700X and I disabled Hyper-V with `bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off`.

Short explanation: Hyper-V is virtualising both host and guest systems. The host system has full access to the hardware but because of virtualisation the CPU has more work to do.
On Reddit you can find threads where some people noticed performance issues while other didn't. They both are right because it depends on the use case.
