  1. Hello everyone, I come here with a question that I can`t get out of my mind. I have a gaming laptop and I usually plug it off at night, the thing is, I wonder what`s less harmfull: 1. Leaving the power cable pluged to the laptop and unpluging from wall every time. 2. Leaving the power cable pluged to the wall and unpluging from laptop every time. Thanks!
  2. Works perfectly thanks! I just noticed something that I`m not sure was there before in task manager: Windows Audio Device Graph Isolation which oscilates from 0.7% to 1.3% cpu usage. Is that ok?
  3. Hey everyone, I recently bought a new gaming laptop and I kept my Corsair Void Pro Wireless headset. I used the iCue software to equalize the sound of my headset but I noticed that it sometimes messed up with framerate of my games. Is there a good free EQ software that does the job and is not messing with game performance? Cheers!
  4. Funny how our GPU scores are almost similar but your CPU Game and Render scores are sooo much higher. Anyhow, amazing how you got to 405.
  5. Awesome thanks! I`ll most definitely need help in the future. I`ll write your tag down!
  6. Thank you very much @Mister Woof @Gohardgrandpa @i_build_nanosuits and everyone else who helped with this thread. Many things have been made clear for me and I know what my next steps are. Stay safe!
  7. Thanks! I see, I`ll test it at 1440p just to check, but I think it is pretty much clear that the bottleneck is mostly the CPU. I am looking to upgrade, but from the little research I`ve made, people recommend to wait for 4th gen AMD, which means I`d have to upgrade my MoBo aswell.
  8. Also, this are some of the metrics while it was testing: GPU temp: GPU clock speed: CPU usage of the most utilized core:
  9. So I tried it out (using @Mister Woof aggressive settings), and this is what I got at 1080p max: How does it look? I can see it is a like 10-15fps lower than yours´ @Gohardgrandpa
  10. I imitated your curve, maybe it feels better. But why can`t the clock speeds be steady while gaming? I figured this is causing the stuttering:
  11. @Mister Woof and @GreyestGoat Can I get a screenshot of your GPU voltage curves? Just to have it as a base so I can try and mess around with it.
  12. That is actually a very good idea! I will try it on some games and I will post back the result
  13. I actually already tried doing that, with no luck at all. I did use MSI AB but the GPU kind of ignores the setting I put there. I tried using the Radeon Software tweaking voltages and such, but I only crashed my system. It was way easier with Nvidia Control Panel to set optimal performance over energy saving.
  14. I have the Sapphire Pulse, and my clock speeds are very volatile. I hardly see a horizontal straight line with clock speeds. Depends on the game, on RDR2 I had a somewhat steady clock of 2050mhz, but on LoL for example and FO76 it varies from 800mhz to 1900mhz. EDIT: it never throttles due to thermal issues, but rather reasons I don`t yet fully understand.
  15. Yes, I have freesync activated on mi monitor and I play at 1080p Interesting, I find the logic in what you say. I just find it funny how, for example in games like LoL, I had a better performance with my GTX 1060 6GB than with my 5700xt (same setup). But in simple terms, I am looking for the optimal piece to upgrade on my PC.
  16. @GreyestGoat @Mister Woof I mean, games run well enough, it entirely depends on the game. For example, I played though all doom eternal with no less than 144fps. I happen to be extremely sensible to frame drops; I can notice when the game drops from 144 to 120. I just want to get the most out of my GPU since I am a FPS freak. I understand frame drops are inevitable, but I can notice my 5700xt is a little under-performing. So in your opinion, will it be worth to upgrade CPU with my current main board?
  17. Based on @Mister Woof answer and you screenshot I am now convinced my CPU is bottle necking almost all my games, given the only significant difference between my setup and yours is the CPU?. I really don`t think it could be anything else such as the MoBo.
  18. Excelent thanks! I notice something strange, I actually get 100-120 fps ingame while playing WarZone. Im not too sure why it displays only 67.6 FPS.
  19. Based only on FO76, there is something broken on mi system... I am almost convinced I have to upgrade my CPU.
  20. Thanks for this information, this is actually new to me. I guess that might be the problem on some games. Anyways, I plan to upgrade my CPU since it is technically the bottleneck of my PC.
  21. I thought about that, it makes perfect sense. The only thing that does not fit is that I can't see a 100% usage or near on any core. But oh well, I guess that is the cause for the frame drop in other games also, that have a poor engine. I am guessing AMD drivers also have part of the fault?
  22. Yeah, from 70C to 75C and it runs steadily from 3.85GHz to 3.90GHz. On games like modern warfare warzone where my GPU is at 99% and running smoothly at 120FPS, my CPU reaches 82C but there is no problem at all. Kind of ironical.
  23. I actually did a fresh windows install yesterday, and did DDU (Using DDU and then using the AMD utility right after) to then install the latest driver for my GPU. This makes me thing it is probably not software related. The only thing I can think of is a CPU bottleneck but I can`t evidence it.
  24. I have the latest one, I always try to keep it up to date to see if this issue goes away.
