GTX 1080 FE preforming sub par?

[howie3601]

Alright so I did a bench mark on Unity Valley and Unity Heaven and I compared it to scores to builds with the same specs. I noticed I am scoring a significant amount lower than other scores

Example for unity heaven (1080p, 8XAA, Extreme tessellation)
My score was: 2412
Min FPS: 9.1
Max FPS: 209.1

Score from a build with the same specs
Score: 2938
Min FPS: 29.9
Max FPS: 242.3

What could be causing this issue? Just a few months ago I tried to OC my CPU and it got way to hot. Tried to oc to 4.4gz but I also have a liquid cooler. I changed it back and tried again later. I had issues booting back to bios after that. Now any time I change something in my Bios my PC keeps rebooting it's self until I take my ram out and replace them.. I don't have anything to reset my bios with either. Which is really annoying.

My Specs
CPU: 5820k
GPU: GTX 1080 FE
Ram: 16 Gbs DDR4

Any response would be appreciated. Thank you.

Are you thermal throttling? Try setting a custom fan curve in MSI AfterBurner.

MERGED QUESTION
Question from howie3601 : "GTX 1080 FE seems to be preforming sub par"

I built a new rig 8 months ago has the following specs
CPU: 5820k
CPU RAM: 16 GBs DDR4
Mobo: Gigabyte Ultra gaming X99
GPU: GTX Zotac 1080 FE

For some reason ever time I bench mark my rig it's a bit lower than expect and what I compare to what other people get with the same card.

I scored a 3700 on UnityEngive Valley (Ultra Setting, 1080p, 8x AA)
I even did one a 1440p with no AA sore was 4300

I've look at other scored online and people are getting in the 5,000s with 1440 with no AA
And in the 4000s with 1080p 8xaa

What could cause this? I know my CPU doesn't have as good CPU per core performance as my old I7 4790k in my other rig.

it's really bothering me. I spent like $3000 on this rig and I just want the most out of it.
Thank you and have a nice day.

that min fps is bad I seen some guys get bad downloads like if you got them from unigine site try a new download from techpowerup and re try

sure it did not damage something or a bios setting is still unstable ???

did you oc the card and its kicking back to a fail safe power mode wile the card is running ?? ?

you may want to use the afterburner or precision x program and run the OSD to watch and see

my 980 ti with valley and gpu-z and its render test running all at the same time 3 loops

also you can use something like hwinfo64 and run it in the backgroung to check if something is falling out of spec
