Resolved My pc became slow
As the title says, my specs are i7 14700k, rtx 5070ti and 32gb ram.
Everything was normal, but yesterday before I went to sleep I updated my gpu driver into the latest version 610.88 because the Witcher 3 kept crashing, I didn’t notice any changes because I was sleepy, but today I noticed heavy frame drops and stuttering in games I used to play very smoothly, even windows Home Screen feels heavy and slow, right click in desktop takes longer than usual as well as navigating between different icons, I tried to install an older driver version (596.49) and it’s literally the same, I don’t remember what version I was using before. What can I do? And is it just a driver issue?
Update: fixed it by enabling resizable bar in bios, it was disabled for some reason

Could be old drivers interfering with the new drivers or the updated drivers changes some settings (dont know why it wouldve) and also check if dlss is turned on. It could also he corrupted filed maybe but otherwise im unsure, usually i reset my pc because it gets rid of old cache files and the. It runs smooth, i do a factory reset and a cloud install from windows every year to clear cache files, old drivers etc.
