So I have a prebuilt, I know many people advise against it. But it was a great deal, and knowing a lot about Computers I knew this. And I knew there would be cheaper parts.
My specs are
-i7 8700
-gtx 1060 3gb
-16gb ramddr4
-120 gb ssd
-1tb harddrive
and I am having problems with my gpu using a lot of power, on msi afterburner my gpu uses 85-100% Power consumption while playing fortnite. Which I think is absurd for this card. I get FPS spikes a good bit. And very annoying. I get good fps though, running good on all games, but the fps spikes are annoying me. is it my GPU? PSU? Or can I help it at all by changing around settings? And my Game crashed the other day too. And my GPU Usage spikes when I get lag spikes along with FB usage. So gpu usage is kinda everywhere. Temps are fine. CPU never reaching above 60c, around 50-55c always and GPU around 65-70c always.
