Have you tried seeing if there are new drivers out for it? And sometimes if you dont take the card out and dust out the heatsink it may hinder performance because it cant properly cool itself so it cant work as hard.

The problem may not be your completely just your gpu. Have you recently upgraded your gpu? it may be bottle necking your cpu (you never really gave us any stats about your pc, would be helpful if you included such things.) You may need to apply new thermal paste to the heat-sync on your cpu. You might want to run cc cleaner, which may increase performance.

click on windows logo, computer, and then system properties on the top. maybe list the i7 and anything else important? I doubt the 1080 is bottle necking your cpu and plus csgo is mainly cpu bound regardless. It might be an internal problem with your hardware.
