CPU: i7700K

Motherboard: GKEG16 GiBy GA-Z170XP-SLI Z170

Ram:16 GB IEIGGJ35 D416GB 2400-15 Ripjaws 4 Red K2 GSK

SSD/HDD: Samsung 850 EVO 500GB

GPU: Asus 2080S

PSU: Cooler master 600W

Chassis: Sharkoon S25-W

OS: Windows 10

Res: 1920 x 1080 (for now)




My Psu is now two and a half years old.

Are you overclocking your GPU, and if you do, don't OCed with memory on this test, it's just doesn't work?
What exactly is your PSU, do you know which one it is> is it rated 80plus bronze, gold, etc.
We are close on CPU I am with 3600 ryzen @ 4.2ghz but lower GPU of course.

But in general, it should give you the sense.

Also try to disable G-sync in Control Panel and V-Sync. Something is capping your framerate, are you running some program.

Are you experiencing crashing/freezing in game?
If power target is only that much, it means you're not really pushing the graphics card... and if you're seeing this even on ultra settings, it means resolution is too low.
No one really needs more than a 2070 Super/RX 5700XT for 1080p.


I know i only have a 1080p gonna upgrade that asap.
but in rocket league im dropping frames.

Okay will do that so i should buy a new and better PSU to make optimal use of the 2080S thats basically what ur trying to say right?

Just wait until more people reply before you do anything. What are your frames per second on the games you play? What is your CPU usage?

You can download MSI Afterburner, go to settings and put in the overlays for in-game

Im using Asus GPU tweak 2
My Cpu Usage is 40% ish
In rocket league i have 190 Fps but should be 250 in apex i got around 140-160 not to bad but i feel like could be way better.

1)Go into bios and enable XMP

2)Consider clearing some space, or transferring files, on your main system drive. Just like ram, storage drives slow down when they're over 75% full.
Is the Samsung Magician firmware installed?

3)Open Nvidia Control Panel > Manage 3D Settings.
Low Latency Mode: Off
Power Management Mode: Set to either Adaptive or Max Performance. Adaptive simply saves power when the gpu isn't being used.
Texture Filtering - Quality: High Performance

4)Do a malware scan with this just to be sure: https://www.malwarebytes.com/adwcleaner/
It can find things that usually get past antivirus programs.

5)Do a Windows file check: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4026529/windows-10-using-system-file-checker

Something is definitely wrong. My system is pretty close to yours and I'm way above you in percentage. Here is mine with the 7700k at stock speeds.

It's a bug or something, I'm not entirely sure.
View: https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/comments/a275s0/userbenchmark_relative_performance_na_sequential/

But from what I can see with your scores, your drives are fine - you system drive is much better now.

Go into NVCP > Set up G-sync, disable it(remember to click Apply!), and run the benchmark again.


Something wrong with the GPU/RAM testing. Is the ram is the dual channel slots? (1/3 or 2/4) is it set to 2133 in the BIOS?
It's running at the right speed. Compare this with their previous run.
