  1. Yeah, they all are plugged in, none were loose. The power and reset buttons also work fine and so does the HDD light. I’m pretty sure those cables are correct and working right.
  2. Hi, recently I was building a gaming computer for my girlfriend, after building it initially and turning it on, the system posted and I installed Windows on it and all the drivers. Later, while moving the computer, I dropped one end of it no more than 2 inches to the ground while the other end was touching the ground. After this, whenever I try to turn on the computer all the lights turn on in the case and the fans spin, but the peripherals now do not light up and the motherboard doesn't post. My personal rig has experienced small thumps like this regularly and has never had an issue. Just to be sure, I checked all the power supply cables, made sure the graphics card was installed correctly, tested the system with and without the graphics card, and checked the cpu socket for bent pins and reinstalled the cpu and cooler. Even after doing this the computer still won't post. Please help.
  3. I just got back from reinstalling windows and everything is setup again, so far im not having any weird buggy issues like I did before but I'm still getting the low GPU utilization problem. Intrestingly, When at 4K CPU utilization is ~45-65% while at 1440p/1080p CPU utilization is ~65-75% this makes me wonder if there is a CPU bottleneck, but my CPU is top end so this shouldnt be happening, especially since Im overclocked. What card do you have btw???
  4. UPDATE: I have decided to reinstall windows, hopefully it helps
  5. I ran heaven and GPU utilization was pinned at 99% but GPU Power % was all over the place anywhere between 60%-95% causing the average framerate to be 31fps at 4K Ultra graphics, Extreme Tesselation, and at 2x AA. I dont have the screenshot of the graphs because when I alt-tabbed from the program, my main monitor actually went off and the computer didn't recover and I had to reboot. That is a minor problem I've also been having is general driver instability. My only ideas to fix this at this point is to remove my GPU's overclock or reinstall windows but I doubt a downclock would fix the lackluster low resolution performance.
  6. Nothing is wrong with the CPU, look at the cores each core is at the same ~60% utilization. Also I forgot to show this in the beginning post, Sometimes when I look at the ground the GPU Utilization peaks to around ~85% (Still low) and the framerate goes up to a much more desired 150fps which just shows the oddity of this issue. I'm thinking I should DDU and maybe even reinstall windows.
  7. I'm not running Very High - Max settings, I'm running pretty moderate settings and I'm getting only about 5-10fps more at 1440p vs 4K. That obviously is a sign of something wrong, and also the GPU utilization is usually 45-65% which is very low. It's obvious there is something wrong, It's a GTX 1080 lmao
  8. I'm considering buying a 1440p 144hz screen so I decided to try GTA V at 1440p 144hz to see how my PC would do at maintaing 144fps at 1440p. Even after lowering a lot of settings the game still runs at a below exceptional framerate considering my specs. Specs : i7 4790k OC @ 4.5ghz Cosair 16GB DDR3 @ 1600mhz GTX 1080 FE OC MSI Z97 Gaming 5 Motherboard Game Settings : DirectX 11 Fullscreen 2560 x 1440 FXXA On MSAA Off VSync Off Population Desnity: MAX Population Variety: MAX Distance Scaling: MAX Texture Quality: Very High Shader Quality: High Shadow Quality: Very High Reflection Quality: Very High Reflection MSAA: Off Water Quality: High Particles Quality: High Grass Quality: High Soft Shadows: Softer Post FX: Very High Motion Blur Strength: MAX In-Game Depth Of Field Effects: On Anisotrpic Filtering: x16 Ambient Occlusion: High Tessellation: High In this screenshot I'm getting around 70fps at 1440p with GPU Utilization below 50% (and CPU utilization at 66% indicating there is not a CPU bottleneck.) Sometimes the GPU utilization will peak at ~90% and the game will boost to around 110-130fps which is much closer to the fps target im looking for as seen here I can also guarantee this is a software problem and not a temperature issue as the game runs at 60-80fps at these same settings at 4K while pinned at 99% GPU utilization with no dips even when the temperature is hitting max. (Incase your wandering about the fan speed being pinned at 100%, I locked in their to see if there was a temperature problem earlier, load temps typically ~86c when at 100% usage).
