[SOLVED] Is my 5700xt under-performing or is it something else?

[PS2673]

I recently bought a brand new gigabyte 3fan 5700 xt. I used to have a gtx 1060 3gb and I was stuttering in games and lagging a lot so I thought I would buy a new graphics card. Turns out this did not help at all. I am still stuttering in most games and my fps barley had any boost to it and I'm still lagging. I've done almost everything uninstalled the old Nvidia graphics card drivers and I've tried finding a solution but nothing works... I feel like a should have a huge FPS boost and there should be no more stuttering but that's not the case.



Any suggestions?

Alright, ill try that also I have another question do you think if I buy a new GPU it will fix my stuttering and fps drop?

You literally just did that and still had the same issue that you’re having with your current card. Is that even a question?
have you tried a windows 10 clean install? Do you by any chance have MSI dragon center installed?

Not sure.
While you're gathering info, go ahead and run open hardware monitor in the background as well so we can see what your CPU is doing under stress.

I have a 5700xt, it absolutely eclipses the rx 580 8gb (which is better than your 1060) it replaced.
Literally twice as powerful, I can max any game and still hit around 80fps absolutely minimum at 1080p.

Could you do me a favor? I've got a heavily overclocked Vega 64 with custom cooling. I'd like to see how it performs against the 5700xt. Could you post a userbenchmark? Do you have any custom cooling? Are you overclocking?

I actually have it downclocked and undervolted at the minute on the silent bios because in all honesty it's actually way more powerful than I need.

But yeah I'll do a run on silent bios then on oc bios when I get chance.
I'll do userbenchmark, I'd argue 3dmark is way way better though when it comes to gpu benching.

Thanks.

Here's a Fire Strike and Unigine Superposition score -

Also, my Vega 64 is literally whisper quiet. Even my CPU rad. fans are barely audible. I purposely built this system out to be quiet at overclocked, full load. If you're adventurous, you could do the same with your 5700xt, maybe even netting higher performance in the process.

 

[PS2673]

Yeah but maybe it was the AMD cards I really don't know I've never gone with AMD I've always been with Nvidia. I have not tried a windows 10 clean install and I used to have MSI dragon center installed but I deleted it not too long ago.

Killed me on physics score because I have a gen 1 ryzen but the GPU results are virtually identical with my 5700xt on the underclocked silent bios.
I'll do the overclocked one when I have chance.
CPU peaked at 56c, gpu at 58c, my system is already silent running in a fractal define r4.

Any other suggestions you guys got cause I'm really struggling right now.

You need to publish the results so you can get to them in a different browser without having to log in to Google. Does it look like your GPU or CPU are downclocking while under stress?

 

[PS2673]

No, they were running just fine but it really makes no sense because under stress the GPU was a little overclocked and my CPU was running fine at 3.8ghz

Hmmm. Can you try a limited boot? Go into task manager - startup - disable everything there, except maybe your GPU software. Reboot and log in. WAIT 5 minutes without opening anything (this allows the 'delayed start' services to properly start and settle down).
Run Userbenchmark again and post a link to the results.

Guy's in his bios is there any settings for the Pcie lanes to run in whatever mode.
2x 4x 8x
I haven't helped on any A320's that i can remember so just thinking maybe?
Pcie mode? In bios?

Yes, ill try that when I get home and I will post the results later tonight.

If this setting is available it's definitely worth checking out.

Heres results from what you told me to do then benchmark after it.

All looks perfectly normal for a 1060 3gb that's not been wildly overclocked.

There does not appear to be an issue (not while running userbenchmark at least anyway)

 

[Crosslhs82x2]

Check your ram frequency setting in bios.

Here is a old link to 1 of my userbench runs
https://www.userbenchmark.com/userrun/20817845
Look at the ram.
I was running 3200 flare x and had it oc'd to 3400mhz.

Yours is 2666 but showing it's running at 1333mhz.

So look in bios for the dram frequency and make sure it's on 2666mhz along with
a-xmp 2666 other wise it won't run its true rating.

 

[PS2673]

Yeah, in bios it's running at 2666mhz and in a-XMP. I don't know I just don't remember stuttering this much and having so many fps drops I just feel like it's not performing how it should.

 

[Crosslhs82x2]

But is the dram frequency setting also set to 2666.

 

[PS2673]

Yes

 

[Crosslhs82x2]

Hmmm??

 

[PS2673]

Do you think its the graphics card that is holding my system back and I should buy a new one? Maybe there was something wrong with the 5700xt but who knows I think either way I want to buy a new graphics card but the problem is I don't want it to underperform if there is something else in my system that is not making it perform to its full capability.

 

[Crosslhs82x2]

Personally myself I wouldn't buy 1 until all things have been gone through.

It still strange that ram on the userbench doesn't seem right.
It should be reading 2666 not 1333.
Have you reseated the ram.
