sub-par performance with my rig

Hi

While my gaming pc performs ok. I always felt my fps in general could be much higher

My setup :

MSI-z170a pro

i7-7700K (oc'd with oc genie)

EVGA GTX 1080ti FTW3

Kingston RAM 2x 8GB @ 2133mhz

M.2 250GB Samsung SSD

For instance in Overwatch on ultra/epic settings I don't seem to be able to hold a steady 100+ fps.

Same issue with Monster Hunter world

Just played the Anthem Demo, only had 70 fps on all low settings..

any ideas? Could it be the ram holding me back?

Ooh. I honestly have no idea what's going on here. It seems pretty serious. Any chance you could have picked up some malware?

no not at all. I work in IT so I'm pretty careful. I've always felt my performance was not up to par but never bothered to run a test.

maybe i should try a clean install and run the test again?

Thats probably the best way to do it. If you don't have much to back up I would probably just go for it. If you do have alot of stuff I might wait and try find another fix.
