I recently built a new rig and its been running flawlessly for the past week. All of a sudden,while playing Desinty 2, my system started making the constant beep sound typically associated with overheating. It goes away after Alt+Esc out. I checked MSI Afterburner to see what the temps were when it happened and the temps never got above these thresholds: 7700k: Temps < 55 C on all cores 1080 TI Hybrid: < 45 C This is in a Cooler Master HAF 932 and Im really confused as to why its generating that sound when the temps are well below their respective limits. Any insight or info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. My setup: ASUS Prime A Z270 i7 7700K EVGA 1080 TI Hybrid 16 GB G Skill Ripjaws HAF 932 Win 10 Pro

Ok so it looks like the culprit in BF4 was Resolution Scaling being set to 200%. I didn't set it to that value, but that is where it was. I put it down to 120% and I am now getting 130 + FPS average on Ultra. I'm guessing the scaling is more taxing on the card than say actually rendering 1440p on a monitor that supports it. I'm hoping that is the case since I want to upgrade to a 1440p monitor. Anyways, thank you guys so much for chiming in to help. Much appreciated.

See that's what I don't understand. I ran MSI Afterburner while playing BF4 on Ultra and am averaging 70-100 FPS.The GPU is being fully utilized according to Afterburner and the CPU is sometimes around 50% utilization but not often. Temps are more than acceptable with GPU and CPU temps not exceeding high 40's and low 50's C. The idea that the 1080p resolution is not high enough doesn't seem to hold water here since the GPU is being fully utilized right?

Ok will do. Thank you guys.

I've read that before. The part that confuses me is that 1. The cpu is pretty decent 2. The cpu is not even close to being fully utilized. I figured if the cpu were taking over it would at least be at 100% if that were the case Also if that were the case, how am I seeing other guys with 1080p performance much higher than mine with similar and sometimes even lesser specs?

Yes I used DDU and re-installed the newest driver. I have not touched the clock speeds on the card.

Hey everybody, I just recently built a machine with an EVGA 1080 TI Hybrid card and I'm not getting the same numbers I'm seeing others get online during game benchmarks. For instance, in Battlefield 4, I am getting only 80-100 FPS on ULTRA with dips as low as 54 FPS @1080p all the while I'm seeing guys running an average of 150 +FPS online with the same settings. Destiny 2 is also showing about 30 FPS less than what I'm seeing others get. I realize these numbers aren't atrocious, but I want to make sure I got what I payed for. I have the latest Nvidia drivers and Win 10 Pro is up to date. Any advice on what I might be missing would be greatly appreciated.
