After recently moving back into my college apartment my computer has been performing below-average during gaming in games like dota 2 where I would consistently get 120+ frames on ultra. I had a similar but more intense issue after replacing my 780ti with a 1070 and fixed it by readjusting the cpu fan and resetting components in their sockets. However this time I have tried this and it not working even after reapplying thermal paste to bring the cpu down from high temps.
