[SOLVED] Im not getting the expected fps

[alexteodoru96]

Hello, my configuration is
I5 8400, 2.4 ghz
12 gb RAM DDR4 2400 Mhz
Nvidia Geforce 1060 3GB
Games like Gta V, AC Odysey, Pubg and Apex Legends , all of them i cant get more than 80 fps on mmedium and low settings.
Any ideas what is wrong?

Mismatched RAM, 3GB VRAM in a lower end GPU and demanding games. What fps are you expecting?

"3GB VRAM in a lower end GPU and demanding games".I dont consider a "lower end" a 1060.I used to have a 1060 6gb an iam pretty sure i got alot more fps than this.AC Odyssey as all the AC series has bad optimization.It was the only one that gave me a bit of trouble.

3GB will limit the the texture quality a bit, also the 1060 3g is not just a 1060 with 3 less GB of ram. It's actually an inferior GPU as well as pointed out by Gamers Nexus.

In this youtube video, you can see the vram is limiting most games. The 1060 3GB is meant as a high end DOTA or League of Legends type card for the asian market, not really for ultra modern games.

We are talking about 5 fps difference between the two..

Your RAM. 12gb is not a kit. Is it even running in dual channel mode?

Ideally you want a 2x8gb(minimum) kit in the fastest you can afford.
