  1. I'm not 100% sure but that definitely seems to have stopped it so far. But I'll not be fully sure of it until I've tested for a good while.
  2. WAIT... You're onto something. I was always under the impression that K series cpus never had IGPU so I discarded that as an option even though I was wanting to try it. Let me giver a go.
  3. When I have anything open on my second monitor whether it be hardware-accelerated or not, I get a massive smoothness loss. This includes a text document, discord, youtube, and any other programs. (With HWA on/off too) W10 Home 64bit RM850x power supply (Plugged into a fairly new UPS but this makes no difference in the problem), GTX 1060 6gb Gigabyte G1 gaming*, 8700k, 16gb 2x8 DDR4 Corsair Vengeance 3200mhz, Asus z370 strix - f gaming, AIO watercooler no temp issues there, 2x 250gb 960 evo NVME SSDs, 2x patriot garbo 240GB in raid 0, 3tb Toshiba HDD for my plex. Latest bios for this board as per their in-bios updater. Monitors include an Asus pg279Qz (using G-sync and a dell WFP 2407 (maybe 2408 either way it's a garbo 1920x1200) Dell is HDMI and Asus is DisplayPort A little larger and more in depth description of the issue: When I'm playing games, borderless windowed mode (No change with fullscreen), and I have any movement or program open on the secondary 60hz and 1920x1200 monitor I have no visible drop in framerate, but a massive drop in the actual smoothness of what I am seeing. Now, for what I know about this issue: G-Sync turns off on the main monitor when non-G-Sync monitors have stuff playing on them. This problem occurs when G-Sync is on, but also when G-Sync is off. This problem has plagued me for years even when I was using a non-G-Sync 144hz 1080p monitor (That now my fiance uses so I can't use it as a secondary). This problem has occured over the course of 2 fully difference builds with the only items transferred between them being this GPU and the 1920x1200 monitor. It has persisted through win-7 and win-10. I've got this kind of pinned down to a few possibilities: Scaling issues with anything running on the 16:10 monitor not being synchronous with my 16:9 main display My GPU may just be kind of borked Possible windows issue that is just a fact of life with how the OS works Not having a 144hz+ secondary to match framerates with my main display thus throwing off some sort of frame rendering pattern? Finally to describe the smoothness change. It's just flat out like dropped frames, it's not a performance drop, there's no drop in actual recorded and benchmarked framerates. It straight up feels like it has turned to 60hz when anything is on my second monitor. EDIT: Graphics card model added. "*"
  4. Okay yeah I get it, AMD is gonna try and flop out with their dick measuring contest and Nvidia won't let it be for long is what you're saying?
  5. How soon are we to expect 3000 series out?
  6. Running all of my games at 1440p with a 1060 6gb has not been treating me the best lately especially with all of this tarkov action. I've been out of the news cycle on GPUs for a bit. As it sits right now, is it worth going to a 2070 (Must be nvidia due to G-Sync monitor) with my trump bucks or saving it and holding out for a 3070? I heard the 3000 series are gonna be reaaaaaaaally good shit. but also I hear they're gonna just be marginally better. Currently "Disabled" due to medical issues and chronic pain so this is where I sit at 14 hours a day. I'd love to have more FPS and a better experience along with the ability to stream. No income but the stim check allows me to get myself something nice. I won't have the money to buy a new gpu now and a 3000 series later. One or the other at this point in time. Current specs, 8700k, 16gb 3200mhz corsair vengeance, 1060 6gb.
  7. In fact it was my RAM, now at a smooth 300 CONSTANT FPS!
  8. But anyways I STILL REALLY NEED SOME HELP. I'M GOING CRAZY! :angry:
  9. Always getting anywhere from 60-300 FPS on stuff. then the frame are just only having like 2/3 of them coming through. My ram gets here today. One of my buddies suggested that maybe it's a faulty VRAM chip? Could that be the case? I've reinstalled graphics drivers and all. The only thing I haven't done is a fresh windows install.
  10. I game on the one, the second is just for browser stuff. PSU hasn't failed me yet. I'll upgrade when I buy a new graphics card. my issue is new, I used to run everything buttery freaking smooth. I had the perfect rig for my needs. All of the sudden everything has started shitting on me.
  11. thermaltake 600w tr2, 1920x1200 - x2 screens, no idea on vram usage or gpu ATM, I know I'm not thermal throttling at all, I have 3 exhaust fans and 2 intakes in my air 540 case GPU always stays cool enough.
  12. It's not the easiest to tell in this video, but this is what's going on. I just reinstalled my entire steam library and it went from playable with jitter to literally unplayable. I'm running a GTX 660 and an AMD FX-8350. I just ordered some new RAM just because the stuff I have in here is old 666mhz and I literally forgot for 3 years that I needed to upgrade it. (I am watercooled, no thermal throttling) Drivers up to date Memtest done settings on different games tweaked cleaned a shit ton of files from old unused game files before reinstalling (230GB) do I need a windows reinstall? what could be wrong?
