Hi guys! First of all i want to apologize because my english is not very good.
Ok so i got a Zotac 2070 super (almost 2 months) and i realized that im getting really low fps. When i first noticed it was with the witcher 3, at 1080p with ultra graphics i get between 55-70 fps... and i think that is not that good with that gpu. I saw on youtube the same card getting 130avg fps with the same settings. So i checked the game with afterburner and i realized that the gpu usage is always higher than 90% (cpu 50%).
I tried tweaking the game with nvidia control panel but it still the same
Then i tried battlefield 1 and at 1080p i get 65fps avg.....
I reinstalled the drivers 3 times but still the same
Im really upset, idk what to do...


Thank you very much!
 
Solution
do you have a spare hdd/ssd? Do a clean install with an ISO downloaded from Microsoft. Install all mobo drivers, install GPU drivers, see what happens.
Check your CPU & GPU max temp while gaming, HWmonitor works well.
https://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html

Post the max temps for both after at least 15 mins of gaming.
CPU;
Temperature 0 55 degC (131 degF) (Package)
Temperature 1 54 degC (129 degF) (Core #0)
Temperature 2 52 degC (125 degF) (Core #1)
Temperature 3 57 degC (134 degF) (Core #2)
Temperature 4 48 degC (118 degF) (Core #3)
Voltage 0 +0.00 Volts (IA Offset)
Voltage 1 +0.00 Volts (GT Offset)
Voltage 2 +0.00 Volts (LLC/Ring Offset)
Voltage 3 +0.00 Volts (System Agent Offset)
Voltage 4 1.17 Volts (VID #0)
Voltage 5 1.19 Volts (VID #1)
Voltage 6 1.16 Volts (VID #2)
Voltage 7 1.21 Volts (VID #3)
Power 00 20.26 W (Package)
Power 01 19.01 W (IA Cores)
Power 02 n.a. (GT)
Power 03 1.24 W (Uncore)
Power 04 1.37 W (DRAM)
Clock Speed 0 4000.96 MHz (Core #0)
Clock Speed 1 4000.96 MHz (Core #1)
Clock Speed 2 4100.98 MHz (Core #2)
Clock Speed 3 4100.98 MHz (Core #3)
Core 0 max ratio 42.0 (effective 42.0)
Core 1 max ratio 42.0 (effective 42.0)
Core 2 max ratio 42.0 (effective 42.0)
Core 3 max ratio 42.0 (effective 42.0)

And the gpu;
Hardware monitor NVIDIA NVAPI
Voltage 0 1.03 Volts [0x407] (GPU)
Power 0 62.67 pc (GPU)
Temperature 0 70 degC (158 degF) [0x46] (GPU)
Fan 0 1772 RPM [0x6EC] (GPU #0)
Fan 1 1730 RPM [0x6C2] (GPU #1)
Clock Speed 0 1875.00 MHz [0x753] (Graphics)
Clock Speed 1 7000.98 MHz [0x1B58] (Memory)
Clock Speed 2 n.a. (Processor)
 
Ok so temps are fine.

Have you reinstalled the newest GPU drivers using DDU or selecting "perform a clean install" during the install?

Next thing I'd check is verifying the game files. While usually when you download a game all the files should be installed however I've had it were a few files went missing or were never installed and it caused really poor performance. Verifying those files via Steam/Origin fixed it.

Yes, i have done both things, but its the same, or worst. I dont really know what to do, i have reinstalled the gpu to check again that everything was correct and still the same. What else can i do?
Thank you for the replies!
 
I would try updating the motherboard drivers but I don't think that'll do much.

When you updated the GPU did you update any other parts? I know if you change the motherboard without doing a clean install of Windows then you can get poor performance due to conflicting motherboard drivers.

As a last resort I'd do a clean install of Windows & drivers and see if that helps.

Yes, i have upgraded the processor, and got from 1050ti to 1080, then the 2070 super. But i already uninstalled the old drivers. I will try a clean install and see if that helps. The mobo is gigabyte ga b250m ds3h, drivers are updated. I also upgraded ram from 8gb to 16 and turned on the xmp in the bios. This sunday i will try the clean install and see what happens. Thank you!

Ok, i have already done it but still the same.... Honestly im thinking about selling the entire build and return to ps4, i dont know what else can i try
 
Have you tried synthetic benchmarks to see if those are also low, to make sure it's not some settings overriding things?

But yeah, I would reinstall Windows if you aren't finding any other cures, it could be messed up with the processor upgrade.
