my rig is
AMD A10 5800k
EVGA gtx 770 2gb
12gig ram
benQ 24" 1080p \ hp 22"

and yet I only get 50-70 fps in cs:go with low settings something is wrong.
 
sounds like you're running off integrated if you have one... make sure multicore rendering is checked in csgo options, but i feel something much bigger is at fault here, you should be able to smash that game max settings 150+ fps

uninstall drivers in safe mode using DDU, put the card in a different PCIe slot if you have one, reset bios, fresh install drivers and "verifiy integrity of game cache" to repair CSGO incase any files missing.
 


so i just reinstalled drivers and made sure that my pcie card is selected as primary in bios. i have vert sync off as well. still getting low fps it went up to like 80-100 depending but that is still on low settings.
 
Make sure all your wires are plugged in securely to your gpu. And also try reseating the gpu and ensuring it is pressed down firmly into the slot.

Also, go into device manager and under the display thing right click and disable integrated graphics.

Third, go into power options and ensure the option selected is high performance. I'm thinking it's on power saving mode right now.
 


all wires are firmly plugged in and it is seated well.

disabled the integrated (no change)

turned power settings from Balanced to high performance (no change)

i have also disabled the HD audio onboard (some say that will cause lag issues, no clue but its off)
 
Can you tell me what other games you're playing. Is it just counter strike or are you also getting this error with other games?

Also what temperature are you reaching at idle and under load. You can download msi's overclocking software to monitor your temperatures.
 


yea i play cs:go, LoL, Diablo 3, Dirty Bomb, rust(not so much anymore) and yes all of them have the same problem some more so than others like cs shows teh biggest drops and LoL the least drops in fps. temps will be at around 40-60 Celsius depending on how long its running. idle gets to like 32 Celsius.
 
Well i would suggest to redo the thermal paste but since temps are not the problem then i think this may solve your problem: http://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalOffensive/comments/2iyerx/psa_to_all_nvidia_gtx_770_owners_who_are_having/
 
Alright. Just trying to get as much info as possible. What is your power supply? wattage brand etc?

I'm thinking it might be a software conflict or something simple. Can you go under nvidia settings (right click on desktop and open that) and make sure nvidia is set to global default instead of auto?

What I'm going to recommend is reinstalling windows completely eventually if we can't solve the problem. But I want to rule out other possibilities before I recommend that option
 


i have done this as well as disable my onboard HD audio.
 


ok now this is something that has bothered me is that in the NVIDIA control pannel there is no drop down menu in the global settings only the settings themselves.. there is no #1 and #2 i click global tab and it just shows settings.

also power supply is 700 watt thermaltake TR2

what would reinstalling windows do? i run stress tests fine and movies/videos amazingly with plenty of fps but games just dont perform..

i was also thinking the CPU bottleneck i have been told that if i get like an i7 it will work better with my NVIDIA and get 40% fps increase but idk if that is still 100% true, still looking to get a good i7 tho as well side note but for now this problem.
 


i do have a seperate sound card but like the first guy said i should be smashing these games in fps i know people with cpu just as powerful and 680 destroying these games on ultra/high
 


You'd be surprised what a reinstall of windows could do. lol. Don't judge an option too quickly 😛
 


your totally right but i was just wondering what it could acutally do, basically all reinstalling windows would do is reinstall/fix any broken/missing files and possibly drivers but for this case i dont really see that being the problem here but i am very well open to being wrong at any time. =D
 


that's exactly why I'd reinstall it. I'm thinking it has to be a driver issue or something is interfering with your gpu. What that is, I can't say.

Then again you wouldn't really lose anything by reinstalling windows. I see people spend hours diagnosing their computers and in the end just basically do a clean install of windows to fix it. This low fps problem and that really big drop is what's making me think it's a driver conflict.

Can't hurt right?

But if you really don't want to, my next option is install the previous drivers that were released. Not the newest ones and see if that fixes it.

(Or going off the bottleneck theory, you could try overclocking your cpu. I seriously doubt it's this though)
 


well see i just reinstalled my drivers (had them saved from downgrading and upgrading multiple times from doing this) reinstalled, same thing, updated it again because they just came out with another it seems since last one i had saved, just today did all this, and STILL same problem. and i hate reinstalling windows bec everytime i do that i have something go wrong and i get frustrated everytime and i would have to get another windows disk for that as well =[

i do want to get a better cpu just bec that is the next thing to upgrade on my rig but if my 770 is not performing than idk hope i dont have to replace that as well.
 


yea i know im looking into that as well getting one of those combo deals or something.

if there is any other ideas let me know please im more than willing to try some things

for now ima try reinstalling windows and hope for the best i guess.
