Question Randomly low framerates that persist until the PC is restarted?
1080ti
Intel i7 9700k
16gb corsair ram
I’ve been experiencing this strange problem where my frame rates drop instantly, my GPU gets too cold, and it impacts all games until I restart my PC.
I’ve tested 3DMark before and after a restart, and the scores changed dramatically. My GPU drivers are up to date, and Windows 10 is also current.

Brand and model of the PSU?
CPU/GPU temperature and usage?
RAM and SSD usage?
System malware scan?
PSU is a Gold 700w from stay quiet, I think. The GPU and CPU are cold during issues, suggesting the system isn't being used properly. RAM usage is normal; I have two HDDs and an M2 drive in my setup. I might run a malware scan, but I've set exceptions for my Steam games because Kaspersky keeps closing them randomly.
the malware checks showed no signs of infection, which means it's not that serious. this problem began just a week ago too.
it just occurred once more while playing state of decay 2; my frame rate dropped from 90 to 45 and didn’t recover, and afterward all my games performed poorly until I restarted. I really need assistance diagnosing this problem since I’m unsure where to begin fixing it.
