Question RTX 3080 low fps

[Jacob Deb]

Hello,
I just got Hellblade and to my surprise it runs on 40-50 fps, 1440p max settings ray tracing high.
Which is not what other people get with 3080.
Anyone has any idea what causes this?

Please list your full system specs.

RTX 3080 , Ryzen 7 5800x , 32 GB Ram

Also , It is something I only noticed happening in Hellblade and other games seem to be fine.

Can you run Home - UserBenchmark and post a link to your result please.

Yeah sure.

Yeah sure.

Please post the link to your results instead. Also please list the specs of all the parts in your PC and include each parts exact model.

For some reason it says GPU benchmark missing? anyways the full specs :

Okay so you need to turn off G-sync or freesync if it is on and make sure you do not have any global framerate limiters on. You have high CPU background usage when you did the test. Restart the computer and turn off any non essential programs and services to retest Userbenchmark and post the results link back here. It shows your SSD as being slower than a disk drive which is very concerning. Were you downloading or installing anything when you did the test?

DirectX 11 test was not completed ... by any chance Hellblade running on DX 11? That could mean problem with GPU drivers.

Yeah I don't know why that is with the SSD.
I had frame limiter set to 140 as my monitor is 144 hz, also had G sync on, turned them both off restarted and here's the benchmark after restart:

Hellblade is running on DX12

Would update the bios,

BIOS Date

20201203

Latest being,

Version 2423 from 021/08/26

Think btw that Userbenchmark has some issues with the gpu related tests. Can't see why your gpu would be the problem there and had something weird when i tried a test too.

Are you btw using both pcie power cables to power the gpu?

I will look into the BIOS update, and yes both PCIE power cables.

Do you btw play that stupid game in userbenchmark? Might be necessary to get a good score, don't really have too aim, just keep shooting for a while. If that doesn't help install the latest Nvidia "Studio Drivers". Either one of those fixed my stupidly low score.

Nah I just let it run lol

Seems your problem lies in this one,
https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Faq/What-is-the-MRender-GPU-benchmark/87#:~:text=Q What is the MRender,target array and geometry shader
cannot figure out why. Looking at others should there be no problem,

Have by any chance some overlay running when benchmarking Userbenchmark?

I am now seeing some better performance after changing some settings in the control panel and doing what you told me.
But still not as good as other RTX 3080 owners, It seems to be mostly around 65-85 atm with everything on max including Ray Tracing (Which seems to lower fps almost by half, with it turned off the game runs on 130-140)
But seeing on YouTube, people run this game with max settings on 1440p on 75-100 mostly.

 

[Vic 40]

Did you already update the bios?

 

[Jacob Deb]

I did now, there is an improvement, running 70-85 mostly , some lows to 65.
But decided to change from Quality DLSS to Balanced, changed some Nvidia control panel settings, and now it runs on 80-100 but rarely drops below 75.
Thanks for the help!

From looking at some clips and settings they use is that not too bad.
