Hey guys,
So for a while now I've had a RTX 2080ti alongside my older CPU which is an i7-6700k. Ever since I got the new GPU I haven't really been seeing the performance I'd expect from such a powerful card, let me give you a few examples.
So I recently started playing Watch Dogs: Legion, and even on high settings I was only getting 30-50 FPS at the most. Another example is Arma 3 where I never really get above 40-50 on higher population servers. I also played the Black Ops Cold War Beta and was only really getting 50-70 if I was lucky, although it was a beta so I suppose that's a hard one to judge. Other games such as Battlefield and Battlefront 2 usually run fine on around 80+ FPS, so I don't really understand.
Could it just be that certain games I'm playing aren't as optimised? Or could my CPU be bottlenecking my GPU? I do also have some occasional problems with Windows 10 being slow or even programs crashing every so often (this doesn't happen a great deal though). I will point out that it does seem to be newer games that I struggle to run the most.
If anyone can provide some advice here then that would be great. If you need any more information as well please let me know.
