so even with NOTHING plugged into the wall...monitor AND PC unplug...you still feel it?!

disconect your monitor from the wall and try again plz.

You are trowing massive hardware at an old ugly non demanding game...the ''bottleneck'' is very likely software related...it's something to do with the game itself and optimization...you're still getting great numbers here. And before you think about it...NO do not trow a 9900K with a RTX 2080ti at your problem, cause it will not solve anything.

yes new motherboard and 16GB of ram R5 2600 would do great as well if found cheap might be worth it.

that's a very good price for all this...if you don't plan on running multiple high resolution monitors, and don't need GPU for processing what so ever...it's great.

and if this is too expensive look for a decent 5700XT deal..

2080ti has been out for 15 months already and paying full price for one is a huge mistake imho...depends how much you value your money and how much of it you have i guess.

1440p is 77.7% more pixels than 1080p bro...of course you'll need a lot more gpu ressources...

...in newer games with optimization, maybe...but in older games, or VR for example...and benchmarking or raw computing the 1080ti is a lot more than 10% faster. https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-RTX-2070-vs-Nvidia-GTX-1080-Ti/4029vs3918

run it in fullscreen mode with no Vsync?

no idea, you should go seek help on the oculus comunity someone probably answered this there...

fixed?

yes there are A LOT of chances of that being the case.

oh come on...if you're lucky maybe a few of them frames will land completed at the same time the screen refresh...so you might get a few full frames from time to time i know it's horrible right... Get a freesync or gsync monitor it'll change your life...you don't notice screen tearing much you might think, until it's gone...only then can you realize how bad it was.

CPU was running 4.2ghz but with only 1.2v on the core...so not really more power consumption than stock. GPU was 980ti Asus strix running 110% of powerlimit with an overclock...that card was pulling very close to 300 watts under full load. CPu was probably around 100 watts (i guess) with load. I don't see how such a machine could run with 450W...i had an AIO cooler, some led strips and about 5 or 6 fans...and 4 SSD. ...and like i said, it was bringing a very well built 550W unit to it's knees. GTX 980ti is a ginormous 601 mm square die...it's one of the biggest and more power hungry high end card ever produced (in comparison 1080ti is ''only'' 471mm²) From my experience with them (i had a GTX 780, 980ti, 1080 and now 1080ti) the 980ti was BY FAR the hottest running and hardest to keep cool card EVER...it would heat up my gaming room noticeably in a matter of minutes...no matter what some skletchy websites may say about power figures, i go from my own experience and how it went down for me, take it or leave it.

GTX 980ti is a very power hungry card. Back when i was using one i was using a 4770K on a Z87 platform with a 550W XFX XTR 80+ Gold PSU (a very good unit) but when i was playing battlefield online for more than 10 or 15 minutes the fan on the powersupply would go nuts...it would ramp up to max speed for like 15 or 20 seconds and then it would come back down...for a minute or so, and then rinse and repeat... So yeah, the PC wasn't turning off or anything, but the PSU was suffering, and it was as good as it gets for a 550W unit. SO...others aren't wrong when they recommend some 550W PSU, but if you overclock the card a bit, and use an unlocked CPU, be prepared for that kind of stuff... My advice is: PSU is a thing that IS future proof...so it's worth spending a bit more to get a unit that will last you for your next few builds with room to spare... i ended up having to sell the 550W PSU and i replaced it with a EVGA G2 750W gold and now the thing is dead quiet and reliable. I would recommend a 650W Gold rated PSU or better, that has good reviews.

undervolting is like overclocking but in reverse...off course at some point it becomes unstable...and for your computer to crash in a light game like overwatch...that tells me you're probably a fair bit off from being rock stable there.

well then why do you think it does that XD

install graphics card drivers?

no problem, please select my first post as answer and make the thread solved for others searching google for help! Have a pleasant evening!

depends how long he's been in there...maybe by the time windows booted etc. it could reach shut down temps...he's not responding anymore so he probably figured it

what do you mean? your CPU wasnt cooled properly?

yeah then i would start there...format your drive and install windows brand new on it...probably some old stuff interfering with the new hardware...this is quite comon.

is it an old install of windows, or have you installed it fresh on a new drive?
