performance

Hi, Im currently using a 1366x768 monitor usually playing most games on ultra or custom high presets achieving 60fps ( 60hz ) on AAA games. I was thinking of buying a new monitor and got worried about the performance loss and FPS penalty of using a higher resolution monitor. I know PPI is...

I am getting quite terrible performance in certain games, and below average performance in everything I've played so far. It is especially noticeable on GTA averaging low 50s when driving through the city. I went to YouTube and searched for benchmarks of my CPU/GPU combo and right enough my...

Hello, i have a problem with my cpu. It doesnt want to go any higher, then 1,39GHz even under load. I tried some benchmarks, to get 100% of it, but nothing changed. i tried lot of tricks like CMOS Battery reset, Flash bios, change power plan to high performance, setting my bios to default. Temps...

Ryzen 5 3600, RX 5700 XT, 16GB of RAM, 600w PSU. Recently upgraded my 1060 6gb to the 5700xt. While performance has vastly improved in many games, (Red Dead Redemption 2, COD:MW, COD:BOCW, to name a few) a few games have actually greatly dropped in performance, namely Destiny 2 and GTA V. I've...

Hey all, don't know if this is the proper place but I'll tell you my situation... After to use an i5 3330 (gen 3) for seven years I decided to upgrade to gen 10. I didn't change because I think my computer was bad -- in fact it was totally fine -- but I was concerned that it was getting to old...

I'm getting pretty poor performance in a lot of games, while also having low hardware usage. I've never heard of something like this before and I haven't found any applicable solutions on google. I've seen people saying that reinstalling windows could help but I'm still unsure about that. I'll...

Hi, I finally got my hands on a 3070 Founders Edition today. I removed my old GPU (a 1660 Super), put in the 3070, and went to test its performance. However, I've found that the performance is barely better, if better at all. I don't have many intensive games installed yet, but so far I've...

Hey all I have the following build: RTX 3070 (Zotac OC Twin) Ryzen 7 3800X 16 GB DDR4 3200Mhz I am playing Red Dead Redemption 2 (Installed on an SSD) and I notice sub performance to what I've seen benchmarks of similar builds. I'm playing at 1080P and am hitting around 52-60 frames on Ultra...

Hi, so i bought the RDO standalone version on december 2nd and i have been playing ever since, but there is a problem that is plaguing me and i have spent the last 2-3 weeks searching forums and testing solutions, this post is my last known resource. My problem is the game starts to stutter...

Hey all! So recently I was lucky enough to get a 3080 and before that, I had a GTX 1060 and so I was expecting a big increase in performance in a lot of games so of course, I swapped out the cards, update the drivers, etc and......well, nothing really blew me away, like at all. Sure, I did see...

Not sure to pick, if I'm buying a 2600k or 3770k. There's a lot of discussion about the ups and downs between these two processors. NOW, I want to know the "not-so-sure-final-answer" about these i7 Cpu's. I researched them both for 3 months now but still not really sure about of how I'm gonna...

Hello everyone, I am fairly new to PCs (in other words, I have no clue about them), I bought a pre-built PC almost a year ago, which is a highish end PC I guess, but have ran into FPS, connection issues and just overall the PC has never run at its best, but just recently I found out about user...

AS stated on the Title, I do not know what's going on with my computer, underperforms like HELL! I don't need comments about bottlenecking, I've already ordered new parts to replace them all and fit with my new RTX 3080. What I need help with is in Dota 2, I get around 100 fps, while people...

Hello. So I've watched many videos on Youtube, comparing them to my performance and this is what I've come up with. My main game is Dota 2, but I do play other games too, demanding games. But there is one problem that I am having with my performance, especially on Dota 2, and I don't know if...

Hello, I have a few questions about bottlenecking and just performance in general. I plan to upgrade my computer within the next 3 or so months, but I got the rtx 3080 as it's REALLY hard to get it. But I don't really see any performance gains, especially in Dota 2 1440p. I got the card to...

Hello! I am specifically looking for information and opinions from people who monitor VRAM usage in 2020 titles... Preferably on Ultrawide 3440x1440 resolution. Would you say the 8GB offered on the 3070 is enough for 1440p Ultrawide gaming going forward? I have a 3440x1440 monitor, which is...

My PC build isn't all that new or anything, but I don't think these games should be completely impossible to play in the lowest graphics settings. My specs are GeForce GTX 1660 Ti, Intel Core i5-9400, 8 GB RAM. Malwarebytes & superantispyware don't bring up any issues. Background programs are...

I have an i5 4590 and as the title says, I would like to squeeze the most most out of it, but don't really know how because unfortunately it is locked. Any tips would be appreciated:D.

I just got back into discovering more about components and computers overall recently and instantly remembered this site and community, I have always had good answers here, so after a long time I came back. My question is: could it be that my components are underperforming because of a power supply?

TL;DR I'm looking at getting a new workstation with an AMD Opteron 4284, but I'm wondering if that's too outdated a CPU for daily use. Longer I built my current PC (full specs at the bottom) almost a decade ago and, whilst it's done an admirable job keeping up over the years I'm really...

Hi all! Recently I upgraded my CPU to work better with my GPU. I was expecting a noticiable boost on performance in all games. My problem is, I don't notice any performance boost at all, even some games runs worse than before. I have the latest BIOS version, Graphics card version, intel...

I picked up my Strix 3080 a couple days ago, and was super excited to start gaming. Was tricky finding a 3rd 8pin cable but managed to find my psu cable kit, which is an EVGA Supernova 1000 G3. Plugged it all in and started benchmarking and it seemed kinda underwhelming, a tiny bit, but I was...

Hi All, Since I rebuilt my PC in the summer last year upon the release of new Ryzen 3 and Rx5700 I've found quite a few issues around lag spikes and generall instability/crashing when playing games. I'm coming from having Intel I7 & GTX 770 where I had virtually 0 issues with crashing or lag...

My Acer Nitro 5 (2018 model, not the newer ones) has massive stuttering on low effort games that ran fine originally. The main games it's really bad on are Don't Starve, and Minecraft. The games go from over 100 fps to 0-2 fps and then back up after a second or two. They seem to occur more...

Hey guys, dose 4x8gb ram 3200MHz CL14 really boost Ryzen 5 5600x by 2-10%, just by having all 4 ram sticks in on a x570 motherboard? Thx

Hey everyone, I just want some help with overclocking. Starting off, these are my specs: Mobo: ASRock Z490 Taichi CPU: Intel i9-10900 (yes, NOT the 10900K) GPU: MSI GAMING X TRIO 24G 3090 RAM: Dual-Channel 2x Corsair Vengeance 32GB DDR4-3200MHz (CMK32GX4M2B3200C16) PSU: Corsair HX1200 CPU...

I've had this laptop for over 3 years now. It's an Omen 17 laptop with a GTX 1070 and a i7 6700HQ. I used to play COD:MW at 100 fps, almost everything on Ultra at 1080p. I went to play today and I almost couldn't reach 40 with everything on low at 720p... The temperatures are fine, nothing's...

Hey guys! We have already talked about this problem in local groups and they too have said that this performance is unrealistic for this config. What's your opinion? What could be the problem? CPU: Intel Core i5-4570 3.2GhZ GPU: ASUS Radeon R9 270X DirectCU II TOP 4GB GDDR5 RAM: Hynix 2x8gb...

My Seasonic S12II 620 BRONZE PSU is at its last legs, shut downs during gaming and then reboots. To confirm, fired up OCCT and started the power test and then instant shut down. So need of a new PSU, I'm living in India so my range and budget is very narrow. Antec HCG 750W Bronze Fully...

Hello, I have recently bought a 3080 and I am getting lower performance then other people with same or even lower specs then mine. When I went to install my GPU (first time doing that) in the first attempt I could have scratched the GPU pins with my M.2 cooler but I am not sure. After testing...
