The speccy report will give deeper details. I read you wiped out Windows but not much about the Windows install and all the needed drivers after a new install. Tell more.

Hello, I've had a very bad lag issue spreading across all games for around 6 months now and am still yet to find a solution. The lag includes a much lower FPS, choppiness and what i would describe as input lag or delayed mouse movements.
Specs -
GPU - GTX 1060 6GB
CPU - Intel i5 7600k
RAM - 16gb DD4
Mobo - Asrock Z270
OS - Windows 10
So, approximately 6 months ago I moved house and in the process of transferring my computer my CPU fan fell off without me noticing, my CPU was running at 100 degrees for a a fair amount of time (2 or so hours, possible more cant really remember), however my computer didn't shut off. After realising performance was drastically lower in games, I then checked my CPU temperatures and that's when i noticed it was at 100 degrees, so i then put the fan back on and reapplied thermal paste.
I assumed it would be done there, my temperatures were back to normal (30-45 degrees, while playing games such as CSGO, Rust, etc.) However the bad performance continued. I was very confused, so a week-ish later I opened up my computer again and re seated cpu, gpu and memory, while doing this i accidentally broke 2 of the RAM slots on the motherboard (very stupid, I know), i have had this issue before on another motherboard a long time ago and it didn't cause lag so i doubt that could be the reason for the lag especially since it out dates the lag itself, however i might be wrong?
I thought maybe the overheating might have damaged the CPU, however i have been told that is very unlikely and i have also done the Intel diagnostic test and the CPU passed all of the tests https://imgur.com/a/KUk0aB1
I have also tried a full wipe of windows, including wiping partions
Its been roughly 6 months and I am becoming incredibly sick of it, if i can't fix it soon i'm just going to buy a whole new PC, however would prefer not to spend $1000+ if possible.
Would really appreciate ANY help, suggestions or advice
Thanks.
