I think I have compatibility issue

[thenibelhungen]

Hello,

I recently buy new GPU (GeForce GTX 1070 Ti Aorus from Gygabyte) to replace my old one (GTX 670) and I have less fps in most of my games, even some image desynchronization.
I checked, and my CPU and GPU usage never go upper than 30% or 50%
Here my configuration:

Dual screen 27' 60Htz/24' 144Htz
GTX 1070 Ti Gygabyte
Intel i7-3770 3.4GHz
2x8GB RAM DDR3 1600
MSI Z77A-G45 (MS-7752) 1.0

I don't know a lot about compatibility, so I wonder if one of my component limits my GPU ?

Thx for your attention.

It didn't work... I still have fps issue...

I make a benchmark, dunno if it's the best one, but maybe it will help

UserBenchmarks: Game 95%, Desk 69%, Work 55%
CPU: Intel Core i7-3770 - 72.7%
GPU: Nvidia GTX 1070-Ti - 113%
SSD: Kingston SSDNow V300 240GB - 48.9%

I would do a clean install. I see a lot of threads where it is the only way to resolve issues like this.

I have already done a clean instal... I instal a new SSD this week end, so in the same time, I have formated my system SSD and done a clean install of windows from scratch...

Check to see if there is a newer motherboard bios version available on it's product page, than the one you currently have installed. If there is, install it.

@thenibelhungen - What are you using to check GPU load? Windows task manager can display gpu load incorrectly. Have you tried MSI afterburner's on screen display?

 

[Darkbreeze]

I agree. Windows task manager and Windows resource manager are the last things you want to use if you need accurate reporting of resources or sensor data. Afterburner is a good option. HWinfo is another good option. I personally like HWinfo for basic sensor reporting information on ALL system wide sensors including CPU, GPU card, drives, motherboard, etc.

If you choose to use HWinfo, be sure to select the Sensors only option when you start the application. The summary option is about as useless as HWmonitor.

 

[thenibelhungen]

I upgrade my BIOS (I have boot issue then, thought I crash my PC.. x) ) and I have installed afterburner, I'll record while I play games to see more detail and come back to you after. Thx for your advice for now !

 

[thenibelhungen]

So I record a game with Afterburner, adn I never go up than 75% on any CPU core and never up than 45% GPU usage...

Did you make sure your power settings are set to ultimate performance in windows and nvidia control panel?

[thenibelhungen]

I do this and still not working... With all your modifications, it feel even worse x) Now I have lag spike... and huge desynchronisation with my screen...

1. Back up your data.
2. Purchase another hard drive, or perform a clean installation as stated above (Disregard steps 3 onward if you do a clean installation).
3. Take temporarily replace the hard drive with the spare.
4. Install windows on it and see if the problem persists.

I recently buy a new SSD already, because the first one was full of my games. So, just before writing this post, I had already done a clean install... And I installed my games on the 2nd SSD to prevent the first one to fill up again.
