Sudden frame rate drop after formatting my PC

[ShivaKannou]

I formatted my PC two days ago and since then, I've been experiencing sudden frame rate drop (from 60fps to 25fps) which, at first, used to happen only in Limsa, but now it happens everywhere.

I checked all the setting in game, checked my geforce experience configurations, reinstalled the mobo chipset drivers and the gpu drivers and nothing solved my issue.

Prior to formatting my PC it was all running perfectly smooth, always at 60FPS with everything maxed out.

I checked if the same happens on other games like Overwatch and Dota 2, but it doesn't, both run perfectly fine. I ran some stress tests and benchmarks and it's everything ok, I have no idea what may be causing the issue.

I have a Windows 7, GTX 970 and my game is running on DirectX 11 (it is installed on my PC).

I really have no idea what might be causing the issue, but it's ruining the gameplay for me.

Can somebody help me?

Running in borderless windowed mode as apposed to full screen seems to help my FPS a bit.
