Moved thread from Components to Systems.

Define everyone...? Got a link to the people who get those perceived FPS's? Please don't link YouTube videos. Are you on the latest GPU drivers for your GPU sourced from Nvidia's support site? Also, what is the make and model of your PSU?

i have seen a lot of benchmarks on youtube where they get these results but you didnt want me to link youtube videos but i have also seen the average fps in gta with max settings is 92 fps with the same specs as me and i am not even close to that. and what is psu? And yes i have the lastest drivers

PSU = Power Supply.

Can you find out what power it is?

 

[andymaze890]

i dont know how to check my power supply and just a question out of curiosity how could that affect my fps in gta 5

 

[stevenjemint]

If your Graphics card isnt getting enough power to run at 100% it wont perform at its maximum.

 

[stevenjemint]

You can open up the PC and have a look at the side of the PSU

there will be a sticker like this -

ok i know that isnt the problem. i have selceted ultimate performance in the control panel.so any other ideas

 

[andymaze890]

and where is the power supply located in my pc what does it look like?

If your system need 600w to run at full capacity and you have a 450w power supply "Ultimate Performance Mode" is not going to solve that.

Like the picture i have posted above. It will be the black box with all the wires coming out of it.

 

[andymaze890]

how do i check my power supply and how much watt i got?

 

[andymaze890]

anyways i did not build my pc. so i dont know why the manufacturers would give me a power supply that doesent have enough watts for my system

NO, not really.

At MAX settings, that's at real MAX settings they aren't ave anything near 92 FPS.

More like 70ish or so in reality.

Here is a video I made with my older machine running GTA 5 maxxed out on a GTX 1080 FTW2 and i7 7700K at 4.8 GHz

This is at Optimized settings in GFORCE EXPERIENCE.. What you need to be running.

[andymaze890]

so you think there is no problem?

 

[jankerson]

so you think there is no problem?

No, just adjust the settings...

Or use GFORCE Experience and optimize the game.

 

[andymaze890]

ok thanks

 

[andymaze890]

i went into geforce experience and optimized the settings but when i did i got about the same fps you got when you had max settings. But the only thing it changed for me is MSAA to 4x instead of 8x but the rest is at max settings
