gtx 770 never above 50% CPU : fx 8350

[Merijn Dobbelaar]

hello

i have a gtx 770 windforce 2gb oc card with a fx 8350 and asrock 990fx extreme 3 also with win8


every game that i play doesn't use more than 50% of my gpu and i don't know why

pls help

which games are you playing?

battlefield 4
cs: go
chivalry miedival warfare
insurgensy
shadow of mordor
left 4 dead (2)

but i have much more games but these are the ones i am playing a lot
i am play a lot of chiv: i am one of the best 250 players in the game
i just installed win8 and unparked my cpu cores
i realy don't know why it does this now.

i had it a lot that i have fps drops for 10 sec to like 20 fps. so i installed it again and now its not doing sh*t

Are you monitoring the temperatures? A GPU will underclock itself if the temperature gets too high.

i did
stable 55 degrees and 55% power,

with that 55% power hmm
i could look of there is a pci connector lose or something becasue the 55% is the max and it only dips to 50

Check that. If all connections are good, try using KBoost.

KBoost is a utility in PrecisionX that automatically locks the GPU at the highest frequency. Just be sure to monitor your system temps.

Turn off VSync.
If it's already off, then you likely have a bottleneck.

should not be with a fx 8350
other people use this cpu too and for them its fine

btw my PSU is CM 600B

when i play chivalry

my gpu power is at 60%
my gpu usage is ar 20% to 43% it does drop..
gpu is at 45 dergrees
gddr5 is at 800mb
clocks speeds stay the same
fan speed at 25%

cpu is eround 40% when i play
this is all avrigge
cpu1 60%
cpu2 30%
cpu3 60%
cpu4 30%
cpu5 60%
cpu6 30%
cpu7 60%
cpu8 30%

so no bottleneck there for what i can see

Download PrecisionX and try KBoost.

So is VSync off?
Are these all on-line games?

no i can't
i have a 144hz monitor and i can't get more than that

If they're on-line games, you can't really get a good gauge on your performance. Your GPU usage is going to be limited, not only by your PC and network performance, but also the performance and internet speeds of everyone else on the server.

Have you tried switching more load onto your GPU with a higher resolution using DSR?
