Hello all, i recently got a prebuilt gaming rig from Digital Storm I financed it because i couldnt afford to buy it outright.
specs are:
ASUS TUF X470-Plus Gaming
AMD Ryzen 7 3700X (8-Core)
Gigabyte GTX 1080 Ti 11Gb GPU(had this from my last gaming PC that was really old and was badly CPU bottlenecked)
600W Digital Storm Performance Series Power Supply ( really wish i knew what brand it was dont even know if its bronze rated lol)
2 500 Gb SSD one samsung evo and the other came with it digital storm premium w/e that is
1 2Tb HDD
32gb of Corsair DDR4 3000MHz Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro
Digital Storm Vortex Liquid CPU Cooler (Seems pretty similar to the corsair one has a pretty decent size Rad)
All Came pre-built in a Digital Storm branded Corsair Crystral series 570X
Also went out and bought an Acer Predator XB272 244hz gaming montior
So my problem is I figured id be able to run most games on atleast decetly high settings and still beable to get 144hz where as on most games i have to run anywhere from low to medium to get anywhere near that.
I play mostly FPS games i.e.: Apex Legends, Escape From Tarkov, CoD MW multi-player and BR, Battlefield V, Rust Games like that.
I was having problems getting over 100 FPS then I did some research and found out my GPU runs hot on the stock fan curves so i got one of The Gigabyte programs and used max fan curve settings while gaming now i get around 80- 110 in tarkov and 150- 180ish on apex legends most settings are set to high on apex but cant use any of the lighting or dynamic range settings if i want to get a decent refresh rate.
Basicly what I'm asking is this, is there any settings i can change or mabe Over clock my GPU and CPU to get a decent performance boost currently i use Gigabyte Aorus engine to give my GPU a slight boost but I've never done much overclocking and dont want to fry my system lol. another route would be me upgrading my CPU to a 3900x or something along those lines but I really dont think my CPU is the problem. Any input will be appreciated.
Thanks, Anthonyt
