Is my pc bottlenecking?

[Mixy09]

Soo i got a ASUS GTX 1070 OC Edition and when i play csgo i get worse performance that my old 760! Like, with my 760 i could play csgo +250FPS most of the time and with the 1070 100-200FPS!
Also while benchmarking with Unigine Heaven i get 60-70% usage and sometimes even drops to 40% usage!

Could it be bottleneck? I'm kinda newbie.

I think it can be of my processor , but like i said im kinda newbie.
All the help is appreciated!

My specs:
i5 3470
Kingston 8gb ddr3 1333mhz (Single Channel)
Asus GTX1070 OC
Asus P8H61-M LE R2.0

(Sorry if there's bad english not my main language!)

the 1070 is bottlenecked by the 3470, but I don't know if that's the issue you're seeing. It seems strange that you would see /worse/ performance with a better card, if it was a bottleneck the performance would stay relatively the same I would think.

Is there anything else you changed other than the card? Maybe steam detected the card and bumped up your anti-aliasing or something?

Not really , i just changed my gpu! Thats all!

Did you do a clean install of your driver's with something like ddu?

Nop, should i give it a try?

1) get an identical stick of system memory so you can have Dual Channel (try pcpartpicker). see motherboard manual for setup (may be #2, and #4 slots)

2) DDU: http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html

3) after DDU, install the latest NVidia drive and choose custom-> clean install path.

4) make sure the monitor is connected to the GTX1070 (I'm sure it is)

5) *Note performance should NOT drop with the same setup when all you've changed is the graphics card to a better one.

Other:
My GPU usage with i7-3770K + GTX680 is never below 97% when using MSI Afterburner to monitor (except between scenes).

You have a slightly weaker CPU and much better GPU but I don't think you should see that much of a bottleneck (down to 60%).

Having said that, single-channel 1333MHz might be significant loss of performance, but even then I don't think that's everything (it will be a bottleneck though. no doubt. I mean the system memory bottlenecking the CPU which in turn can bottleneck the GPU at times)

So you're saying that if a get another stick of ram it might improve? (my mobo is only 2 slots) If yes i would not buy some 1337Mhz could you recommend me some ram? (I'm almost out of money soo the only thing that i can upgrade is the ram)

USA link.
Yes, I would definitely get either:

a) an IDENTICAL stick, or
b) 2x8GB 1600MHz C9 or better (Don't go above C11)

It depends on whether you can find an identical model.

*I can't predict how much this will help but I'm fairly certain it will give a small boost. Feel free to run various graphics and/or CPU benchmarks before and after adding memory.

That's a pretty good kit for $65 (1866MHz C9).

I will give it a try! Since i cant do much more xd

What's the temps on the cpu like? The 1070 is a hugely powerful gpu so it would be easy to run ultra max settings on almost any game. Unfortunately games like cs:go are much more cpu dependant so if trying to keep up with the 1070 settings you might be driving the cpu too hard.

My cpu rarely goes above 60 celsius

So i bought new CPU , CPU Cooler , RAM and a MOBO!
I expect to be fixed now xD
