Question Graphics card upgrade seems to be worse

[Deccy1990]

I have just upgrade from a RTX 2080 to a 5070TI and have got the card in the machine but when running games it seems to be worse than my previous card. The games keep gittering and dropping to 20-30 fps and I'm not sure what is causing this. I have removed the old drivers from the machine and done a clean install of the Nvidia drivers but this doesn't seem to have helped at all. I have tried running multiple different games like hell divers 2, POE2, Elden Ring but they all seem to struggle. Any help would be much appreciated.

I'm waiting for the usual "reinstall Windows" comment. But seriously, this could be anything like corrupted driver, bad power connections or even a defective card. But first thing that comes to my mind is this: did you have a GPU management software running before and after you switched the cards? Like MSI Afterburner? This could do very bad.

How does it do in benchmarks like Time Spy? What is the GPU load when you run the games? At what resolution are you playing? If you were up to date with the Nvidia GeForce One driver before swicthing cards it should have worked out of the the box, but if you had something like MSI Afterburner running with some overclock it could have crippled your new card (especially if you reinstalled the driver with the software running in background). In that case you would have to uninstall/reinstall both the software and the drivers.

Did you try to put back the old card to see if it performs as before?

What resolution are you at? I wonder if the cpu might be holding back that new card.
