I've Acer predator helios 300 PH 315-51.
i5-8300H, gtx 1060, 16 gb RAM 2667MHz single channel.
My GPU is not performing as it should be.
I've managed to control the temperature using Throttle stop so i think there's no thermal throttling issue. My CPU clock speed won't go above 3406 MHz while gaming(as it should turbo boost up to 4 MHz). i think CPU is bottlenecking GPU and i Don't know what causing it. My GPU usage varies and hovers around 60 to 80 percent and even if it reaches 99% I don't get enough frames. I'm getting around 25-30 fps in Ghost recon Wildlands at ultra settings ( i should be getting around 55-60 fps at ultra settings). Even playing cs go I get around 90-150.
My power mode is at best performance while playing the game.
should i add another 16gig RAM, i wonder if that's going to solve it?
