To put it simply: I have a strong feeling that my MSI GTX 1070 Gaming X 8GB is heavily underperforming. It has been a common subject of discussion between me and my mates how they are reaching higher frames per second (with the same settings as I run the games we play on), but with last generation's cards. I'm talking GTX 970's and GTX 980 TI's is what they are running.
One example is DayZ Standalone. We were running around in-game, brought up the discussion of each other's FPS since they reworked the renderer (he was running the game maxed out, I was running it one preset lower). He was getting around 180 FPS outside of in-game cities and 60 to 80 FPS within in-game cities. I was getting 100-140 outside of them and 35-55 inside of them. He runs a GTX 980 TI, 16 GB of RAM and I believe a CPU that matches the performance of my CPU (Intel Core i5-6500).
If anyone has any clue what might be the problem, please reply.
