currently running an 8700k@4.8Ghz with a 3080. FPS on mm/faceit is around 450ish, max limit i checked(running benchmarks on lower resolutions) is around 550 but thats like extreme OC with a 1.38v core which I never want to run full time. Anything before 10th gen you can forget going over 550-600 on csgo. This is the best I ever got with the 5.1Ghz@1.39v OC Anyway, 400+ average is pretty decent FPS numbers and I play with fps_max 349 anyway Having said that, i dont have CS2 access so idk what sorta hell that launch would bring

DDU and do a clean driver install. Also try earlier versions of driver. Always boot to Safe Mode then DDU before driver installs. Install Driver only nothing else DO NOT INSTALL GEFORCE EXPERIENCE CRAP While you're at it, check for running background programs/services You should be getting the same if not higher than prev card Also, check if GPU is performing as expected so a GPU specific benchmark(Unigine or something similar which you can check online for leaderboards)

I'm used to transfer large video files from phones. This has helped me skip 5 more steps. And is native on Phone so i don't have to install shit there. Transferred a 2gb file from phone to desktop. No settings changed or anything. Just installed app and sent from phone using nearby share then accepted the incoming on desktop. Got a solid 500ish-MBps(topped around 61mbps)

my problem was similar but i think it was the damn discord bug.. nothing similar happened before or since

GPU/vBIOS already on latest patch(came in that way with latest ones and hav no updates) GPU driver as I said, i dont use latest patch unless they actually increase performance. Most usual driver updates just decrease performance in litter %ages Intel drivers are already updated, checked once, no new updates. Dunno how multiplane overlay would cause video artifacts all of a sudden. Still didnt answer my initial question. Is there any other test i can do to verify.check what is actually the root of the problem?

Hi, This is my current PC build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/qfRG4s. I have been having some random issues recently. Some of them are benign, some point to very serious failure. 1stly some info and history: the whole system isn't build as a package, I've been adding to it constantly over the years core system(cpu/mobo/ram) were bought in 2018, recent components are the TUF 3080oc, bought July 2022 and the PSU bought Aug 2022. CPU usually runs on an all-core overclock at 4.7Ghz at 1.28v core voltage which gets bumped to 4.8Ghz at 1.29v during colder seasons. Tested/benchmarked on higher freq and voltages upto 5.1@1.38v but never ran it daily. Every new OC change is always followed by a 30minute Cinebench run and then normal games and regular usage to confirm stability. Recently I've seen the CPU struggle to hold a stable 150+ fps on PUBG and similar battle-royale games so this winter I decided to push the system to drive a daily 5ghz OC at 1.35v. Which did confirm my CPU struggling and being a bit out of date. So during recent cold season I decided to try and run a regular 5Ghz OC, which I achieved at 5Ghz@1.35v. I've been running the same for 2 months now, and Temperatures dont go beyond high 70s(77-78C) during gaming and 91-92 during synthetic benchmarks. GPU runs its factory setting and the GPU switch is turned to the Performance mode. GPU driver installs get a DDU before every install and I rarely update them since I dont try newer games so I tend to keep to older well performing versions. currently been running 522,25 from October 2022 which did include some performance updates to many games. changing from the old to new GPU i wanted to do a fresh windows install but didnt since both GPUs were Nvidia(previous was 1050ti) so I thought just a DDU would be good enough. I never had stability issues but recently after the recent overclocks to 5ghz I've seen general random behavior, PC crashing while loading a Youtube video, Youtube/similar pages in general being slow to load sometimes etc etc. all of which i accounted to my windows install getting messy since it was last formatted/installed mid 2021. I initially planned to do a fresh install when I got the GPU but then couldnt since I didnt have my SSD backed up. PUBG as a whole is a nightmare and crashes sometimes which i accounted to it being a poorly made game. Also CSGO had a crash recently(just the game) which never crashes, i mean this might be the 1st crash in a couple years. Yesterday I saw my PC suddenly exhibit blocky artifacts on screen. It happened as I launched PUBG and alt tabbed to Firefox. It was not running anything taxing before, was just sitting idle. Artifacts didnt cover the whole screen and were just few handful scattered around the screen. But I panicked and did an immediate restart and also pulled back the CPU overclock to 4.8Ghz@1.3v. Before the restart I did note the temperatures none of which seemed to be out of ordinary or even hot for that matter. Everything was under 60 hovering around 50ish, this includes GPU memory, hotspot and CPU/GPU core temperatures. I have all of these set as tray icons from HWinfo so i can check quickly left to right, Yellow=GPU power, Purple ones are GPU memory Junc, GPU Hotspot and GPU temperature. Green is SSD temp, Blue ones are CPU core, Cpu clock and CPU package Now since for the last 48 hours or so the System is running fine without any odd behavior(apart from the slow website loading problem which might not even be a system issue just an ISP issue). Now on to the trouble shooting. Since the 30 series have had issues with memory and after seeing the display artifacts I'm very troubled thinking the GPU might be the problem. GPU is new and under warranty so GPU being a dud might just mean a simple RMA but I live at pretty remote place and RMA would mean not just months of wait(all high value cards in India go directly to Taiwan for RMA work) but also multiple trips to the next metropolitan city to submit/retrieve the actual card. I ran MSI Kombustor Furmark Donut-6500MB to test GPU memory and video artifacting but didnt see any for the 10minutes I ran it. I've also played games for 5-8 hours since then and nothing odd happened/had no issues. The only GPU related issue I found in Event Viewer around the screen-artifact incident were these 4, the last one "Error Occurred on GPUID: 100" had quite a dozen or more events the 1st 3(restarting, reset, resetting) had 1 event each I haven't been able to get the panicky feeling out of my head since I saw artifacts on screen and in my head I'm always going "please dont be a bad GPU." Is there anything else I can test for? Could there be any other reason for the display artifacts like CPU OC, system RAM or just windows/Driver issue? Thanks in advance for your help.

Any further developments? I saw a similar behavior recently and am confused... Asus TUF 3080

If you hear an audible click then it is shutting down bcoz of power issues(tripping something/unhappy capacitors/shorts).... check system without GPU with iGPU and further test PSU and motherboard.

both cards, your old 2080 and new 4070Ti have similar power draw. Current PSU shouldn't be a problem but personally I like to keep some headroom and not run PSU at 80%+ loads so if you can then maybe swap for something 750w/800w-ish otherwise I'm sure it'd run fine

Desktop, 2nd hand. better price to perf. but do check everything multiple times.

Hi, The title is basically it. I needed an 1TB SSD within $110-130(9k INR) and the performance of the SN770 looked really good but then I see lots of people complaining about it being bad only because of it being DRAM less. Would it matter that much in real life usage? I currently have an Adata SX8200 Pro v1 512G which I was thinking about replacing with the new drive. Would the general system performance be worse with SN770 if used as a new boot drive? My only other good option is 970 Evo Plus but that'd be another $50(about 12.5k INR) EDIT 1: Another important info I missed. Motherboard is PCi gen 3, not Gen 4 so the SN770 and any other gen 4 drive performance would be limited a bit. Thanks in advance

You were so eager to ask the question "if I could" that you forgot to ask "whether I should" 4x iPPC at 2500+ RPM each. My ears bleed at the thought of it

:3 taxes are a bitch We pay 18% on imports, 10% duty and then extra 5%+5% Goods and services tax

I paid about $820 Converted price. It's INR 74000 in local currency. It might seem too high, but MSRP for founders is INR 66000, and 8K over MSRP for an OC card that stays cool seems about right for me. Maybe I could have gotten cheaper a month or 2months from now, but I've been waiting for 2years like that and any opportunities like that are welcome. Just a month or 2 ago prices at the end of May for same card were in the neighbourhood of INR 110,000+ Current PSU is Corsair CX650F. Might upgrade to an RM850/x or NZXT C850 in a few months

I bought the TUF one cuz 1) I was desperate for a card at MSRP 2) It was the only one I was getting at MSRP(the retailer has something going on with ASUS cards and selling them for 25% discount, that's 25% off the scalped pricing so basically MSRP). I thought bout getting the Strix but that was another $100 more. Also the tier lists for 3080 suggested TUF normal/OC was one of the better cards out there. The alerts are just for my peace of mind. I'd feel safer knowing my PC will scream at the top of its lungs(speakers) if anything was out of order. And so I can leave my desk without worrying the card trying arson on PSU or something.
