Windows 10 + Nvidia 1050 (very slow games)
I just can't find anywhere online a fix that works, all my games are in 15/20 frames after I made a clean Windows 10 install, when it was Windows 7 everything ran fine, but now even my PC it's slower
I have i7 and 16GM memory, plus a Nvidia 1050 ti graphic card, I just can't find the problem!
I'm coming here because honestly I can't find an awnser online, even of Nvidia's forums I can't find a good solution
Does anyone have an idea what might be this?
I already tried reinstalling everything, or updating them, or changing the energy preferences, or changing both of them to work on PC's performance over graphic quality, I even put on low resolution and the problem persits!

is computer is not overheating ?

do you have the official Nvidia drivers and not the microsoft compatibility one for the nvidia 1050 ti ?

did you open your task manager to see where is the ressources bottleneck come from ? maybe there is a background task that keep using your cpu while you play game ?
Install the drivers for your hardware. Maybe something is missing.
Look in the hardware manager of windows.

I just checked and aperantly my CPU it's 90°C
What microsoft compatibility? Where can I find it? I manually downaloded the offcial drivers from Nvidia's site
My CPU usage i'ts pretty ok actually, not even 25% usage

yeah , it's probably overheating and thermal throttling.

the only time where 90 celcius is normal is with some gaming laptop and when they're working at full capacity , not 25%.

maybe it's time to clean that machine ?

That looks bad. Fix the overheating.

I just did actually, before all of this, since I added a new HD as well
I have no idea of why it is like this, I'll have to open it tomorrow :/
Thanks, I hope it's just this
(I'm not the one that did these changes, that's why I'm having so much trouble, since I don't understand that much about computers)
if the computer is clean then the thermal paste on the cpu is dry or there is still dust left inside the heatsink you haven't noticed.

there are only a few specific cpu that should be reaching that temperature on a full load.

I think if it was due to overheating then u could've got an BSOD

not always , some cpu will endure high temperature for a long time before forcing the computer to reboot or BSOD if they can thermal throttle enough.

Check ur task manager .. how much is the ram usage while on desktop?..disable unnecessary startup apps ...make sure u have the latest nvidia drivers and graphics utility softwares if using....

I never heard that a dry paste causes 90 C.
Paste is just there to fill micro gaps. Once its in those, its consistency does not matter that much.

The "application" of the cooling should be checked anyway, if its not dust or airflow. In the case of checking it, new paste is needed though.

I've seen cpu overheat and then going back to normal after changing the thermal paste , thermal paste is not eternal and can lose efficiency after years of use if it's too cheap.

If you look at it, as described above yours, it needs to be replaced.

When do clean install of Windows OS, the 1st thing to do is getting all your drivers installed that you ever need to run any of your games, or software this save you time by whole lot, then manually get your GPU drivers, don't let Windows update do it for you, windows update always for years been buggy where have a chance to have bad gpu drivers install.

90C is not something you should be at for idle ever, not even games, unless you live in a really hot environment, like the middle east, or something, and using intel stock cooler, or some cheap tiny cooler that are crap for a reason, then make sense why you be at 90C when gaming. Unless of course you were doing overclocking and you have the voltage too high, and overclocking a little too far then that be a problem you need to fix that, if you didn't overclock then ignore that.

You CPU most likely be thermal throttling, that means your system trying to protect itself from overheating which limits your CPU, getting low performance, blue screen, and freezeing issues.

If your thermal paste went bad, you need to get new thermal paste applyed to your CPU, ensure to remove old thermal paste 1st, clean cpu aera, and apply new thermal paste there loads of videos showing how to do it on youtube.
