I’ve had this issue since installing Windows 8. After initially installing the OS everything runs great but over time (in months) games become extremely sluggish. For example where I might get silky smooth 120fps on day1, on day 110 I’ll get a 12fps slideshow. I don’t notice any performance issues anywhere else – either it’s only affecting games or simply isn’t noticeable elsewhere.
I could really use some help diagnosing this. I’ve asked in various places before and I’ve got nowhere with it – the only solution has been to perform a clean install of Windows which is a massive pain.
Some things I’ve tried before that haven’t worked:
Checked for viruses
Checked temps & Overclocks
Reseated CPU / GPU
Updated Windows & Drivers
Checked background programs
System Restore
Windows Refresh
System Information:
CPU: 2500k @ 4.8Ghz
GPU: GTX 670
Mobo: Asrock z68 extreme 4
OS Drive: Samsung 840 Pro (256GB)
Other Drives: 120GB OCZ Agility 3, 1TB Seagate Barracuda, 1TB Samsung Spinpoint F3
