Hi everyone, I'm coming to you because it seems that my graphics card is underperforming and I don't know where this can come from.

My graphics card is well connected in PCle x16
My PSU is 850W
My mobo is a X570S UD (bios is up to date)
Cpu is a 5800X

I don't know what to do anymore, why don't I get the same performance as the others? I don't want to overclock my gpu to reach them, I want it to stay stock
http://www.3dmark.com/spy/33444237 (Time Spy)
http://www.3dmark.com/fs/29027370 (Fire Strike)
I looked at what the average person with the same configuration as me was getting (with the same speeds, not overclocked) and they are around 18000 graphic score for Time Spy and 44000 graphic score for Fire Strike, so there is likely a problem in my setup isn't it ? What should I try to get rid of that and have normal score ? Thanks in advance.

What are your FULL hardware specifications? Please include EXACT model numbers for memory kit (Or kits), power supply, BIOS version (Don't say "up to date". Please list actual BIOS version), CPU cooler, case, number and arrangement of case fans (Intake, exhaust, for each location as well as models if possible), Windows version, etc.

Also, as much as it's entirely worthless as a benchmark, it sometimes is helpful to pick up glaring problems with the hardware configuration, so it would be a good idea to go ahead and download, install and run userbenchmark and post a link here to to results.

RAM: 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 Kingston 3600MHz Fury Beast RGB
PSU: 850W MSI MPG A850GF 80+Gold
Bios version: F4d
Cpu cooler: Corsair Hydro iCUE H100i RGB PRO XT
Case: Kolink Citadel Mesh ATX ARGB
Windows 10
3 intake fans at the front, 2 exhaust at the top and 1 exhaust at the back.
Temps are good when playing, both cpu and gpu (around 60 to 70°c for both)

I don't see any glaring problems with your userbenchmark results. And all that means is, there are no really serious problems or really poorly configured settings. It doesn't mean that everything is as good as it can or even should be. But again, I'm really not seeing a problem there.

F4d is indeed the latest BIOS version, however, if you have not already it would be a very good idea to download and install ALL of these.

My gpu is brand new, like 1 month old, it shouldn't be that poor... I don't have the performance I asked for when I purchased this gpu don't you think ?
I've done everything you said but nothing changed, still the same performance, sometimes it's even worse, seems like it change everytime I restart my computer but never go really high, it's always in the low scale :/

How do you figure this is not good performance? Your Timespy score was higher than 79% of all similar tested systems and your Firestrike score was better than 98% of compared systems.

In fact, those were your results BEFORE you did anything recommended here. Why don't you run them both again and see where you're at now.

And those other systems with higher scores? You have no idea whether they were overclocked or not. And most of them were, I promise you that. That's the only reason many systems rate higher despite otherwise identical hardware.

Higher than 79% of all systems, check it by yourself, I'm far below the average. Average (of my setup) is 16256, I'm at 13542 for my last benchmark... http://www.3dmark.com/spy/33478593
Cpu seems good, compared to others it's in the average, but not the gpu, which is underperforming and might be the bottleneck himself, is it possible that I get a defective one ?

It looks like it is underperforming to mee too . my 3070 has does similar scores.
make sure it is working at 100% power when gaming . like monitor power usage and overall usage clock speed ...

Your 3DMark results indicate that you have different level of details set directly with the Nvidia drivers. Is this so? It makes benchmarking worthless if so.

This.

Besides which, benchmarks are worthless unless that's all you care about is trying to provide a better screenshot than everybody else. What matters is whether it is performing the way it should when it's actually being used for whatever you are using it for. Gaming, video editing, whatever. If it is performing well in that regard, then benchmarks are entirely irrelevant.

If yours has similar scores that begs two questions.

Why would you say it looks like it's underperforming, because that would mean yours is too.

And, if yours is too, why isn't it fixed, because until you get your own system working properly it's kind of asinine to offer advice to anybody else on the topic. Seems like if the advice were any good you'd have applied it to your own situation.

I was talking about userbenchmark GPU scores , I get 160% with my 3070 and 3080s should score like 190% I think .

LOL. Userbenchmark scores don't have anything to do with anything. They are literally, hands down, the biggest joke that exists across all internet tech forums and have zero relevance to anything at all, in fact, referencing them are even banned on some forums, other than determining grossly misconfigured hardware like memory that's not running at the right speed or in dual channel. When you see scores that are like 70% or less of average, it SOMETIMES means there's a problem there. The rest, is irrelevant, entirely.

My 3080 also gets around 14,917-14,923 Timespy Score Overall (paired with a 5600x), specifically a 17,589 graphics score so I don't see an issue with this.

Granted I did undervolt it to 0.875 and it runs at 1920MHz but that's expected.

Mine only get around 14000 of graphic score, that's 3500 below yours, and you think that's alright ?

What power plan are you running? You should be running the Ryzen Balanced power plan, and with the latest chipset drivers.

Did you clear CMOS/hard reset bios after the bios update? This is essential! F4d fixes a stuttering bug, and I'm not sure that F4a does fix that. Clearing CMOS could be a solution,

As the other posters have said, don't think of UBM as any kind of reliable bench for your system. At best it's a comparison, which can point to easy fixes, like ram not running in XMP. But not much more than this.

Ryzen power plans does not exist for 5000 series. I'm using the windows balanced power plan.

I've loaded optimized defaults if that is the question, but my bios was up to date when I bought my computer.
