    Win10 or Nvidia update killed overall PC performance

    It's been a while since I played around with this but after messing with so many things it came down to the latest Nvidia drivers. I hadn't updated for many months before starting this thread so I can't pick which version this started in (378 I believe as I was still using 372 beforehand). I...

    Win10 or Nvidia update killed overall PC performance

    Rainy day, decided to play around more with it. Noticed that the voltage and load is not increasing on the GPU at all when under stress. I'm hoping that its my GPU that I've blown over it being my PSU not delivering the voltage any more (if only I could find my multimeter). It's a good 650W...

    Win10 or Nvidia update killed overall PC performance

    I play everything from Minecraft to Battlefield 1. I will probably break down and toss $200 at a new one, I can find a 4GB 1050 Ti (128) for about the same price, or a 3GB 1060 (192) for another $60. I don't go for "top-level" stuff - as long as my gaming is smooth and looks good. Summer has...

    Win10 or Nvidia update killed overall PC performance

    Sadly it didn't work, I had used DDU first. I have now gone as far as resetting Windows (keeping my personal files) and reinstalling everything else from drivers to games. No change in performance. Running some stress tests shows the GPU is only hitting 5-7 fps at low res rates. CPU tests show...

    Sudden and constant FPS lag in games with the same settings as a time of perfect 60+

    That's what I had thought at first when mine crapped out, even removed the Geforce Experience altogether. I've not got the determination this week to do anymore figuring so I've done a reset on my PC and am reinstalling it fresh - during this I've hit a couple bsod but it was a C++ error...

    Sudden and constant FPS lag in games with the same settings as a time of perfect 60+

    When did this appear to begin? I don't have temporary stuttering - mine is constant but seems like the CPU and GPU are bottlenecking each other. I have a thread "Win10 or Nvidia update killed overall PC performance". The Avast thing is a good point, I run it as well. Did you receive any recent...

    Win10 or Nvidia update killed overall PC performance

    I am stumped to what caused my huge fps loss for all games and even software (such as Sketchup and Photoshop) I had done a low-lovel wipe on the free space of my hdd. Everything continued to work well, I was getting normal performance. Then I noticed an Nvidia driver waiting to download - ok -...
