HUGE framerate drop with Graphics Amplifier

I have noticed a HUGE drop in framerate with my  alienware 15 laptop and graphics amplifier with a GTX980 ti graphics card! When I ran firestrike for the first time when I hooked my system up everything ran more than twice the speed. Now the speed has lowered more than half. I have a performance score of 4458!? Here is the link.  http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/16507314?

Now I am hitting

Graphics Test 1 was 41.38 fps
Graphics Test 2 was 50.94 fps
Physics Test was 6.32 fps
Combined Test was 6.0 fps

Before I was hitting 
Around 70-80 on graphics test 1
Around 80 fps on graphics test 2
Around 20-38 on physics test
And around 40 on combined test.

What has happened to my pc. Before my score was 17000 to 18000. I have the same hardware as I did before ( NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 Ti(1x) Intel Core  i7-4710HQ). I have tried to free up space on my  hard drive, completely deleted my  graphics card drivers and reinstalled them, I took apart my external graphics amplifier and cleaned the dust out (the card was hot) but that didn’t change anything. I went into the nvidia settings and selected max performance. Why is the physics test only 6.32 fps!? and the combined only 6 fps!? Please help me, I need to get my computer working again, its hard to play anything!
