Framerate and frameskipping after crash

My computer was experiencing some heating issues so it appear as though my coolermaster fan had stopped working and wasnt cooling the gpu like it was supposed to. Unreal engine is very gpu intensive as I only hear the fans when its running. It wasnt a problem before but after the crash it appears any unreal project I attempt to run has low fps. My computer specs are very much above the requirement to run unreal engine and I’ve even tried it in an empty project and I’ve gone from seeing 100-120 fps to 35-55. Whats worst is that once a physics actor or characters on screen(such as the dynamic combat template on the marketplace) the frames drop to a consistent 30-45. When attacking or triggering a attack reset the frames skip drastically. I’ve tried reinstalling the launcher and the engine version. What do I have to replace in my computer to get back the performance I had before?(Recent changes to note I also added an additional stick of ram if that could be the issue.)

What’s it like if you take that RAM back out? Also, maybe your graphics card is screwed…
