Hello everyone.
I’m new to this site and would appreciate your guidance.
My PC, which I purchased about 3.5 years ago, isn’t performing well for gaming anymore. It has these specifications: a Nvidia GTX 1080 GPU, an Intel i5 7600 with 3.5 MHz and 4 threads, an Asus Prime Z270-P motherboard, 16GB of RAM.
I’m struggling to run The Witcher 3 at medium settings without dropping below 90-100 FPS, and it also crashes during gameplay. Horizon Zero Dawn doesn’t work smoothly on low graphics either.
Only League of Legends and World of Warcraft run reliably. I’ve tried overclocking yesterday but it made things worse, so I turned it off again.
Any suggestions could help?

What is the processor and model?
Can I monitor CPU and GPU temperatures and usage while playing?
Which storage device is installed—SSD or HDD?

Hi, I’m not completely clear about what a psu is, which is why I’m a bit confused.
My CPU temperature is between 71-75°C and stays around 80%-85% while gaming in Task Manager.
My GPU is about 80-82°C and usually around 5-10°C during gameplay in Task Manager, though I’m curious why it’s so low.
I have both an SSD and an HDD.
