Hello everyone
First up, I am new here so I hope I am posting in the right topic. Now the issue with my rig:
Specs:
Intel i5 6400 ( with an aftermarket cooler)
8 GB of Corsair 2400 MHz RAM
Asus ROG Strix 1060 6GB OC version
Gigabyte H170 HD3 mobo
Corsair CX 450M PSU
Kingston 240GB SSD and 1 TB HDD
In several games now I have noticed that the FPS are not right. I will use CSGO as an example: I am hitting around 100 at max setting 1080p while I should be well above 144 Hz which is max ref. rate on my monitor ( AOC G2460PF ).
On top of that my brother is getting 144 FPS on his PC while he only has a GTX 970 paired with i5 4460. Now to go through options I have already tried:
fresh install of Windows 10 64bit
all Windows updates installed
updated BIOS
latest Nvidia drivers installed
CSGO is on SSD
XMP is on
overclocked the GPU in Afterburner
I have really run out of ideas, any help is welcome.
