-Check temp
-Reinstall drivers
-Install new thermal paste in GPU

hey thank u

temps are ok

idle 40 or 38

load temp like 50 or 56 max load 70
i just did a clean reinstall

the paste is ok :/

is only happens with these games

 

[Tek-Buzz]

There is no accurate solution as the problem is with these games only, i'd reinstall the game and see if something new comes in.

-Check temp
-Reinstall drivers
-Install new thermal paste in GPU

i figure it out

in this game

the gpu load is like 40%

is that right?

 

[Tek-Buzz]

That simply means the GPU is using 40% only of 100% in that particular game, i'm sure the GPU in other games uses 100%, it's just in the game,started all of a sudden, my GPU started doing it all of a sudden in one game,just cause 3 , usage were fine until it limits the usage to 60% thus resulting in low frames. your GPU is fine,issue is in the particular game.
To make sure, stress test the GPU using apps like Unigine heaven, while you stress testing check GPU usage if it goes to 100% or not with MSI afterburner.

Reinstalling the game is what i'd advice, i didn't bother reinstalling just cause 3 as it is somewhat playable, but i'm not 100% sure if reinstalling the game does the trick either.

hey

i did a 3d mark benchmark

the fps were good constantly at 90 or 80 never below 60

exept where there is so much thing on screen, i had a fps drop to fps

the load was ok like 99% or 100% not like 40%

i reinstall the game and same results

bump

i forgot to mention

i just celaned the other day

and i forgot to plug the conectors to the vga...

i realized during 3m then i unplug the pc


may i damaged my card?

i mean if this was the cause maybe the vga wont turn on or windows wont reconigze it

i played bf4 for 5m to test it and no fps problems just

normal temps on a game like that 70° and fan control set to 55

never above of 70 or 71

other games less demanding

temps are like 55 or 60

anyone?

Do you have the latest drivers for the 660ti? I'd also do a run through of the settings in GeForce Experience, optimize the games then read the settings to make sure they are good. GE has settings that the games do not have and can add extra weight to the game, slowing it down. You can turn off things like fxaa and reduce shadows etc as these are also high cpu usage settings.

 

[Blos88]

hey thank u for asnwering

yep i have the latest

the problem is ins capitals

like 30fpss or 20 sometimes when is too much people

i know capitals have a huge performance sometimes

but before this i had like 70 o 90 fps even in capitals

the problem is wow is no using all the gpu dont know whta to do

im testing with high and good settings

 

[Blos88]

bump?

 

[Karadjgne]

Check GeForce Experience for the settings there. There are many more settings that you will not find in the game, so even just making the game high or good may not change the actual card settings of some sliders.

sorry for double post

but i think i found the solution for the moment

i did a clean reinstall with driver sweeper, run ccleaner

install the driver not the 6x series drivers

just the 5x drivers

my fps are like before 80 or 70 never below 60 or 50 if i turn aroun d the camera

would be a problerm in the future?

using a driver that is no for the series

i mean im using 500 series drivers for win 8.1

not the 600 drivers

i will continue testing
