I'll be getting is as soon as I get back to my country for holidays, and the prices might as well be a bit more down than usual. I will be getting a new GPU as soon as I see that the 980Ti is spent and can't deal with the workload I usually put on it, but it's a plan for a bigger upgrade, that's why I settled for the X3D

I'll probably go for the 5800X3D since when I get out of University I'll most likely upgrade the motherboard and GPU. Thank you so much everyone for taking valuable time to help me out! I hope you all have a wonderful rest of your day!

I'm pretty sure it did, since I like to keep everything, especially hardware related, on the latest version. Highest resolution I can go to is 1080p, unless running a game on triple monitors counts as a benchmark. If my motherboard supports the 5800X3D I could get that since it retails for about 350 Euros here brand new, I've got a 360mm Radiator for cooling so I shouldn't need to change that either, if I also don't need to change the motherboard then I'll be buying is as soon as possible since I want to spend a good amount of hard earned money so I don't have to upgrade in example 2 years from now.

PCI-E Link speed in GPU-Z Shows PCI-E x16 3.0 @ x8 3.0 And I assume that's normal since my CPU doesn't have enough lanes with the M.2 SSD and such, I've also been told a while back I'll need to upgrade sooner than I thought since the CPU is weak due to it being just a 4 Core and having an iGPU.

That's why I decided to ask it here. I had my eyes on the 5800X3D, even though it would require a new motherboard I think, budget is almost no issue since holidays are coming in less than a month. ASUS B350 PRIME-PLUS is the motherboard the system has in it right now, I don't have a problem with changing out the motherboard as long as I don't need to upgrade any time soon lol

Currently running an AMD Ryzen 5 2400G which I've seen is bottlenecking my 980Ti, I'm looking for a CPU Upgrade to bring bottlenecking to 0 or at least reduce it, I've looked up the bottlenecking percentage on a few sites, no idea if they're trustworthy or not This is the site I used. Shows almost 40% bottleneck, any recommendations from people running the same GPU as mine? NOTE: The GPU is overclocked, has a custom BIOS, higher TDP, better cooling, so that's bound to be a higher bottleneck than the one showed. System is mainly used for Gaming and Producing music. Thanks a lot to anyone who decides to put a few minutes to help out!

Reporting back with some news I couldn't even guess. I reset my Windows system and let Windows decide what driver to install, which was driver 456.71 and all games are perfectly stable up until now, R6S after extended testing and different graphics settings sits comfortably at 144FPS dropping to MAYBE 140 when a lot of stuff is going on without stutters. Updating to the latest driver brought by NVIDIA Experience, brought back the same issues of stutters and low framerates. Conclusion: I'll be sticking with this driver since NVIDIA killing off my GPU so they can push me to buy a new one for technologies I probably wont even use for the maybe 2-3 games I play and maybe 4-5 university programs I use. Fuck you NVIDIA

I have no idea about how timings work, could you point me to some posts? I also had the thought that maybe the GPU VRMs aren't cooled properly

I haven't played a game yet, to test FPS in a teamfight but I can definitely say that the stutters are gone, I'll do some further benchmarks and I'll let you know, sounds like a CPU bottleneck to me, I'm looking forward to upgrading my CPU/Mobo/GPU later this year

I'll check the CPU usage when benchmarking with some stuff I've got, I updated the BIOS and games seem smoother, the FPS is still meh for a 980Ti at 1080p, but the stutters I can definitely say they're gone

I closed all programs before running UB, I also just saw now that you mentioned it that there's a new BIOS out, fixed some stuttering issues, I'll update now

What about this?

Sure, I'll report back in a couple minutes when I arrive home
