AM I GETTING THE RIGHT PERFORMANCE? GTX 1070/i5 4690k

[SwypeYT]

Hey Guys! C:

So i don't think i'm getting the right performance for the games i'm playing...
Can anyone help me troubleshoot? Here are my FULL Specs.
i5 4690k @4.5ghz
Asus Turbo GTX 1070 (Haven't overclocked and have reinstalled the latest drivers twice, both off
Geforce experience and the website)
8GB HyperX Fury White Ram
CX500M PSU
ASROCK z97 Pro3 Mobo
Hyper 103
Corsair 200r (No additional case fans)


BF1 @ Ultra 100% Res scale 80FPS Average (Surely i should be getting more? I mean ik i have
a 4690k and its a CPU Intensive title but it should be enough and i OCed It? :/

Thanks!

What resolution are you running at? 1080p? 1440p?
Also here are some benchmarks, check them out.

I would monitor your GPU temps, maybe they are to high because your GPU fans are set to silent (lower RPM = higher temps). What is your CPU usage? Monitor it and report back please
How many fans do you have and how are they placed? How many exhaust and intake?

Thanks for the reply!

Im running at native 1080p
My CPU Temps hit a max of 70 (Keep the OC In mind)
My CPU Usage (this is all whilst playing bf1 btw) is 100% (Which has been reported by a large number of other bf1 players)
I have one fan at the front of the case that takes in coldish air
and one near the io which exausts (If you really want pictures im happy to provide)

Thanks again!

No picture needed.
Well, if the CPU is 100% than that's the reason for lower fps. It is bottlenecking the 1070 which is kind of strange...but yes, BF games are (and were) always CPU intensive. If you managed to overclock it a bit higher (which you probably can't), then you might see better fps (5-10 more).
Switching to i7 might help but it probably isn't worth it. You have a 60hz monitor anyway, right?

 

[SwypeYT]

I actually have a 75hz Monitor (Oced)
Are you sure its bottlenecking it? The gpu usage gets about 90-98%

 

[ZaneDragon]

Well it's 100% all the time. Also you can OC the GPU and it won't be 90-95% anymore
CPU is the weakling
