Gigabyte GTX 1060 WindForce II 6GB, low performence.

[pmajewski2142]

My graphics card suddenly lost a significant part of its performance, for example in Battlefield 1 I am not able to play even on medium details because I have drops below 50 fps. The same applies to Forza Horizon 4, medium detail 1080p and dips below 50 fps.

GPU usage is 99% in every game, at this time the processor barely captures up to 90% in Battlefield 1.

My result from Valley Benchmark:

What is more strange, framerate in the world of tanks seems fine and it is the only game like that.

I cleaned the entire computer, replaced the thermal pastes, reinstalled the system, reinstalled the GPU drivers 10 times. Unfortunately, nothing has helped as now.

Maybe someone had a similar problem, does anyone know how to solve it?

CPU: i5 6500

What about hitting ram limit? 7.6 should be starting to use pagefile. I know that i struggled at cod ww2 7GBs used, even pubg made me do over 8 and hitting pagefile like nobody else.

Also to mention, not all details of world load ino vram of gpu, but also does load into system ram.
I would seek first to borrow 16gb (2x8) if possible to test if it works fine, you know your issue, cause you reinstalled windows and drivers multiple times, soo we go on hardware issue.

ps. What is your ram usage, I cannot see, thank you.

Hi, thanks for answer.

Here screen with RAM usage: https://i.imgur.com/20QYziy.jpg (medium quality, 1080p)

RAM info from HWiNFO64 https://i.imgur.com/QfeelFV.png

Shouldnt clock be at 2133MHz? (I dont know, just asking)

1066x2=2133 ddr, double data rate.
Try loading lower graphics then higher and report back how dipping goes, you can also fiddle with resolution (lower then higher).

If on lower you dont have dips, ram limit, if you dont, there is something else doing that.

 

[pmajewski2142]

The dips are even on very low, in one moment i saw 26fps.

 

[RememberThe5th]

What about ram usage on low?
How old is your hdd if you used it in previous build.
Download hdtunepro and post screenshot of health tab, also if you have time, run hdd benchmark on hdtune and post screenshot (if you have hdd).

Very Low 1080p RAM usage: https://i.imgur.com/RkUGNLo.jpg

Im playing on SSD, its 2 years old.: https://i.imgur.com/qJ3oI2J.jpg

Weird. Any background apps running?
Windows update, antivirus?(and similar)

 

[pmajewski2142]

Nothing running in background.

As i said in World Of Tanks framerate are normal BUT game only uses ~4100MB of RAM.


Now im thinking that my RAM memory is just broken.

 

[pmajewski2142]

Hi, im back.

It looks like the GPU just works in PCI Express x1 and not x16 as it should (Yes, even on 100%GPU Load).
The MOBO is ASRock H110M HDV, how to fix it?

 

[RememberThe5th]

Hmm , usually gpu and mobo have power states, as my cheapo 1150 has in chipset settings, in advanced i think, disable power saving any of kind under pcie and set to gen 3 (or gen 2 if that is your last option).
If you are unsure ill respond later this day.
