Question RTX 2070 - Poor performances (getting around half FPS as normal)

[Hatomune]

Hello ,

First off, here is my config :

- Motherboard : Asus TUF Z390-Plus Gaming​

- CPU : Intel Core i7 9700K​

- RAM : 2 * 8 Go - 3000 MHz​

- GPU : Asus GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER Dual EVO​

- PSU : Seasonic Core GM 650 W​

- Screen : Optix AG32CQ 144 Hz 1440p (which is the resolution I use)​

- Software : Windows 10 Home​

I bought my PC a few months ago, but only had time recently to start playing GPU intensive game. Unfortunately, my FPS were quite low :

- 30 to 45 fps max on AC:Origins/Odyssey - using the medium preset​

- 40 to 50 fps max on RDR2 - in a custom preset (which mix of medium to ultra settings)​

When having these low FPS, lowering settings/resolution only nets me a little to no additional FPS.

For a few days I managed to get full performances (using exactly the same graphics settings) :

- 80 to 95 fps on AC:Origins/Odyssey​

- 70 to 90 fps on RDR 2​

I thought that was due to clean booting my PC (disabling every options regarding fast boot), but it didn't last long.

After 4 days of great performances, my PC went back to its low performances and I honestly don't know what to do.

- I factory resetted my Windows (although I did not clean my other harddrive)​

- Checked every cable was properly connected​

- Tried default settings both from my bios and Nvidia Control Panel​

I monitored my PC (using GPU-Z) while playing any of those games and :

- my GPU load is around 99% with a full clock speed (1950 MHz)​

- the "Perfcap reason" says "idle"​

- GPU is around 63°C​

- CPU is around 65 to 75°C​

I would be truly grateful to anyone willing to help. Please let me know if you need more details.

Thanks in advance.

what the cpu usage during the game?
ram/ssd/hdd usage during the game?

Thanks for getting back to me.

I monitored these data using GPU-Z and HWinfo, after playing for about 20 minutes.
Here are the full results :

In short :

• CPU usage : about 20% on average
• RAM usage : about 10 Go
• SSD usage : reading and writing properly, the game is located on the SSD.
• HDD usage : none, both my OS and the game are on the SSD.
