Go up to the top of your Steam library window and click HELP > SYSTEM INFORMATION and paste the ENTIRE list here. That will show us your system specs and whether the drivers are up to date, etc.
It sounds like your internet is janky, but also there may be issues with your firewall or virus scanners. If you can, make sure that your virus scanner and firewall are NOT scanning steam, nor in use while steam needs to be online. ("live" scanning for web use in other words)
Were your games EVER able to be played without these issues, on that EXACT computer?
I have not yet tried disabling the firewall but I will try if none of this works
here are the stats

Windows 10 is NOTORIOUS for changing settings on video cards, leading an otherwise functional device to not be used. I strongly suspect your games have been told to use whatever craptastic chipset is embedded in the motherboard. Particularly since you say they worked fine: that's indicative of Windows 10 having updated, and screwed it up.
Hopefully that will help! If not... please come back and say so :)
Can you plug both monitors into the card? If the other one doesn't work after you disabled the mobo chip, that means it was plugged into that connector and not the card.
Have you rebooted regularly since doing any of these things?
You could also have a virus or an unknown process eating up juice and causing this.
How do those or other heavy games with no internet run? [single player-offline]..If they run fine, then it's internet based...If they don't then it's something that's juicing your pc for one reason or another or glitching on certain code or heavy-processing areas.
Also indicative of a virus or new process that's a real power-sucker
Have you installed anything new recently??? is another good process of elimination.
Noticed anything strange or lagged on bootup, startup time on apps, anything at all?
Been to any new sites with ads or popups recently?
the only new things ive installed recently are a couple of games on steam. single player games work fine too, (i got my monitor problem fixed too)
That, or your internet is not handling it well.
alright ill check that out in a bit, ill let you know if anything happens
