So I play a ton of Apex, yesterday evening I was easily running the game at 80+ frames, I boot up today and I'm hardly getting above 10 FPS.

My graphics driver and windows are up to date. I've tried the cliche restarting it, I went and checked the NIVIDIA control panel and it all looks to be correct, but EVERY game I now own is completely unplayable. Even google chrome and discord take significantly longer to open up and run, my CPU isn't maxing out so I'm not quite sure what's going on. I've been working to troubleshoot this for about 5 hours now and would GREATLY appreciate any advice or help to get it working once again!
