Serquet70 :
Have a friend who just upgraded his build to a fully watercooled build with a 1080TI and i7 7700K. He's getting ridiculously low fps in all games (15-30 fps) and the GPU usage is staying super low (sub 20%).
We've tried reinstalling all drivers, adjusting power settings, and nothing has worked at all. He's got the monitors plugged into the GPU, lot the motherboard.
Anyone know of anything else we can try before RMA-ing it?
I'm having identical issue. After first install, was mint - 0 issues. Noticed in PUBG FPS drop intermit to 15 - 22 FPS. Restarting PC fixed it. After another month, restart had no effect - Required a full GPU driver install or re-clock of the CPU to fix it. Now, no matter what I do, its constant 15 - 22 FPS in PUBG, RUST, Destiny 2 etc. Other games run fine (Although low FPS's - Heroes of the Storm 40- 55 fps)
