Kaby lakes slow down for performance(mine is i7-7700k)

[DWoun]

So about two weeks ago I reset my computer and stuff. I installed all the drivers including the bio update for my motherboard z270e. The problem there is a huge performance decline. I tried resetting settings and tried the misconfig boot option but the speed doesn't go up.

What should I do?

Contact your board vendor; they are responsible for the BIOS and configuration. We cannot help you with this here.

Uh, I'm not sure if it's the board or the CPU itself??? So...

I'm saying I'm trying to find why it's slowing down:(

My games go really slow....
