so as the title says i got i7 7700k and RTX 2080ti and i just tested out AC origins on 1080p on ultra settings and i got 57 fps how is that even possible ? so i searched on youtube for benchmarks on gtx 1080ti with the same CPU as mine and a video i saw got between 70 to 90 fps thats way higher than me i also got SSD and i got 16 gb ram dual channel and also i tested insurgency sandstorm i get 50 fps if there was a lot of activity or a lot players on my screen im 100% sure this isnt normal so please help :(
 
Solution
but i modified the resolution like you saw in the video to 2k and almost 4k i didnt get any extra FPS because the higher the resolution the more it relies on GPU than CPU


Doesn't matter, if the Monitor isn't actually higher than 1080P. ;)

The bottom line is the 7700K can't handle the 2080Ti at 1080P.

Best bet would be to either:

Get a 1440P monitor.

or

Upgrade the MB and CPU to a 9700K or 9900K with a Z390 MB.

But even then the 2080Ti isn't really a 1080P card and will be bottlenecked every CPU out now depending on the game.

The issue is the 7700K can't handle the 2080Ti at 1080P.

So either get a new monitor, 1440P or a new MB and CPU.
ok lets forget about the 2080ti i had 1080ti and the same CPU it gave me the same FPS 40 to 50 so 1080ti is weaker than 2080ti but the at the same time it gave me the same FPS while the video from youtube shows a better fps with the same GPU i used to have

Well you did get a cheap MB and your ram is slow. ;)

But I wouldn't put much stock in YT videos these days, most of them aren't quite accurate.

But as your system is now, it's out of balance performance wise so that needs to be changed.

But you won't need to do anything if you got a new monitor, 1440P.

oh well i upgraded my GPU so why not upgrade the MB and CPU :) i will leave the monitor for later

those YT tests used Z series motherboard. so the 7700k can be overclocked up to 4.9GHz. thats way diffrent than using it with H motherboard
