Done all the stress tests... After all I do have my i7 @ 4.2 Ghz.
Prime, intelburntest, memtest... You name it, I have run them all!
Cheers.
PS1: All of my drives + registry are defraged.
PS2: Now, while flying, I have popup windows saying that my system is low on memory. Epic fail the way things are for me right now...

I've been having some performance issues and I haven't done a clean install for 2 years. Will my BIOS settings stay the same if I do do this?

Here I do it every 6 months +-.
A clean install won't mess with your BIOS settings. Just make sure you backup your documents/work/files, bookmarks, emails (if they are locally stored) and game settings/configurations/controls.
