Lets use a benchmark:

Aerosoft a319

Orbx KSAN

Rex 3d, all textures HD no Ultra-HD

 

Fps: 22 - 26 + heavy stuttering

 

I am using affinity mask and nvidea inspector + turning off anti-virus to get an extra couple of FPS

 

i7-3770

Gtx 1060

My previous specs were the same as yours. Despite I had found good settings to avoid stutters, the FPS was rarely above yours.

Daylight came back after buying my new PC (see below).

Have you tried running 4.4 without affinity mask and nvidia inspector turned on.  Using the AS A320 aircraft and same airport I get 35-60fps with no tweaks. I use a GTX 1060 also but with a i7-4790K no OC @4ghz.. LM have mentioned that with the 64bit release, little, if any tweaks are necessary.

Check to see if you have hyperthreading on. If so turn it off. Myself and others have reported better performance.

 

H.T. combined with Process Lasso helps a lot with a 3770K. Just have to let the core 1 free (not the 0).

If you did some major changes or if you had a crash, it is always a good idea to delete shader cache. I do do it on a regular base just to be on the safe side.

UPDATE:

(this is a different benchmark, AS A320, aerosoft PANC, rex 3d and fsxwx (yes i use that weather engine lol)

my fps after deleting my shader cache shot up from 22-18 to 32-34
