Question Why is my graphics card underperforming?

[hennyxo]

I just recently upgraded my pc, and after doing some benchmarks with some games, I realised that my graphics card is underperforming, compared to other benchmarks I've seen online. G-sync and v-sync is turned off, and I've pretty much tried all the other solutions that has come up in other forums like re-installing drivers and so on. I did build this pc on my own with no prior experience, literally my first time, so maybe I didnt install something properly? idk. Anyways I'll drop down my specs below, and what GPU tweak showed me whilst i was in game for battlefield 5, one in 4k and the other 1080p . Please feel free to ask me for any other additional information. any help would be much appreciated, thanks

Is BF5 the only game tested?

In BF5 play around with Ray tracing settings. Ray tracing is v.taxing.

Check out future frame rendering option in the game too.

Don't use Geforce Experience to optimise, it can set details and other enhancements quite high based on where the quality slider is positioned.

Okay, seems like ray tracing was the culprit . Thanks for pointing that out, I had no idea it had such a huge impact.
