Need Help

First of all I am not sure if this is a CPU or GPU related problem, At the moment I am thinking GPU.

So some background :

Asus 1155 Motherboard
i5 2500k ( currently clocked at 4.3 - the past week has been sat at either 4.5 or 5 dependant on what I am doing )
16gb Corsair memory
Palit GTX770
Windows 10

Usually while playing games I am able to stream using OBS. CS:GO would normally sit at around 300fps, DayZ varieing amounts.

The stream would always sit at 30 happily.

Yesterday the new NVidia Drivers came out. I didn't stream at all last night so didn't notice any difference, wasn't even checking FPS in DayZ.

Had an event tonight so decided to stream, As soon as I started it, boom 8 fps on the stream and around 50% less in DayZ.

Loaded up CS:GO to check that, even with out streaming I am struggling to get a stable 50.

Although when I get shot and it shows who killed me, the frames jump back up.

Could this be down to drivers?

I have tried reverting back to previous drivers however there seems to be no difference.

I have also tried a stress test on CPU and it is fine. I have stress tested the GPU however as I had not previously done this I do not know if the frame rate is any different. No artifacting though.

Thanks in advance.

Did you run DDU? I would try running DDU then install the latest driver again, if you still have issues run DDU again and then install the last driver that was stable for you.

I have recently rolled back to 355.60 as I was having terrible FPS in a lot of games.

DDU??

I have seen that said a lot but completely forgot to look into it,

I ended up doing a fresh install, is easy enough for me as everything is seperate across drives and now all is well (apart from remembering all my god dam settings) I installed an older driver this time as well.

A few of my friends use NVidia graphics cards and say that nvidia drivers can be a mess at their first release
