@greeatzyI did do all that you suggested. And now I must do my walk of shame. Turns out GX optimizes games by turning on an option called "ray traced shadow quality" for this specific game. I SWEAR I had checked all my options prior to going on this wild goose chase, but apparently not. Turning that off has immediately fixed all my frame issues, and with the OC that I've added for my RAM and GPU I am actually able to run the settings a bit higher than normal. Sheesh. Thanks for your help here. Problem solved. Rookie error.

@greeatzy do you have discord? not sure which test in kombustor to run. Also, not familiar with prime 95.

@greeatzy I have no jumper cap. I am guessing a paperclip would work? anything metallic?

@greeatzy thx. "Also try removing the CMOS battery for reseting the BIOS." Looking at my mobo manual I see where they discuss the battery, but not it's location. E7B79v2.1-GSE-LITE.pdf

I'll look into this and get back to you.

Thanks. Throttling not an issue. max temp is 65C, and running nzxt h500. Currently running with side panel off bc it's easier to reach cmos button. other suggestions?

anyone?

Thanks, and while I think you are right I don't have the full screenshots from the benchmark I did when I was getting good fps. Still think my GPU should be giving significantly better frames for this game.

The only thing different is the GPU driver. I rolled back to the known higher FPS driver and still got the same benchmark results as the one on the right. Both were using Geforce X's recommended settings, so the settings should have been the same.

Hey All, having an issue w my 2070S and not sure what the root problem is. My system is less than a year old. Specs: 3700x, 32gb ram 3k mhz, gigabyte windforce 2070s OC. My gaming monitor is 2560x1080 @ 144hz Edit to mention. 750W seasonic focus plus gold. 1tb nvme m.2 so I ran into issues last night playing Shadow of the Tomb raider. I noticed I was getting substantially lower FPS than normal with my very new rig. Ran the in-game benchmark, image attached from good fps and bad. I have run MSI kombustor, and Afterburner during a userbenchmark test and am seeing no anomalies. ALSO, userbench shows that my GPU is performing "way below expectations". Things I've tried: Rolled back my driver in Geforce X. no fix. Used DDU in safe mode to roll back drivers again. no fix. Tried unplugging GPU from PS and at the connections, and re-tried benchmark. No fix. Tried uninstalling/reinstalling game. no fix Tried fresh windows install. no fix. Tried OCing GPU further using MSI afterburner. no fix. OCd my ram using AMDs DRAM calc. no fix BIOS update for my MSI x470 gaming plus board. no fix. I can not, for the life of me, figure out why I have nearly 40% drop in frame rate playing the same game on the same settings. Any help is greatly appreciated. Many images attached for help diagnosing. plez help! I am losing my mind.
