Hi everyone, I really hope someone here can help me. I have recently added a Gigabyte RTX 3070 Vision OC to my system: CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 3.6 GHz 6-Core Processor CPU Cooler: Corsair iCUE H150i RGB PRO XT 75 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler Motherboard: Asus TUF GAMING B550M-PLUS Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600 CL18 Memory Storage: Western Digital Blue SN550 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive Storage: Samsung 870 QVO 2 TB 2.5" Solid State Drive Storage: Western Digital Blue 2 TB 3.5" 5400RPM Internal Hard Drive Video Card: Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3070 8 GB Vision OC Video Card Case: Lian Li PC-O11 Dynamic ATX Full Tower Case Power Supply: Corsair RMx White (2018) 750 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply I've started gaming with it and the performance has been all over the place. Sometimes it is fine, but sometimes I get massive frame rate drops and inconsistent frame rates. I have attached a log file monitoring hardware info from a session in Battlefield 1. I was playing at 1440p with settings on High. I would really appreciate it if someone could take a look at these values and see if they can see where the issue might be. 'BF1 Log.xlsx' is colour coded. Green indicates good in-game performance, red indicates poor of fluctuating in-game performance, blue indicated as-expected cinematic performance and orange indicates poor cinematic performance. I have split the logs into selected CPU, GPU and Other metics. As you can see in the log files, frame rates drop as low as 7 FPS and when they recover from there jump around massively. Everything in the GPU metrics drops off a cliff, including power input. I also found it interesting to note the performance limit indicators, shown below: Framerate [FPS] Performance Limit - Power [Yes/No] Performance Limit - Thermal [Yes/No] Performance Limit - Reliability Voltage [Yes/No] Performance Limit - Max Operating Voltage [Yes/No] Performance Limit - Utilization [Yes/No] RTSS GPU [#0]: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070: GPU [#0]: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070: GPU [#0]: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070: GPU [#0]: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070: GPU [#0]: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070: 144 No No Yes Yes No 144 No No Yes Yes No 144 No No Yes Yes No 144 No No No No Yes 72 No No Yes No No 52 No No No No Yes 68 No No No No Yes 71 No No No No Yes 70 No No No No Yes 71 No No No No Yes 72 No No No No Yes 72 No No No No Yes 72 No No No No Yes 3 No No No No Yes 7 No No No No Yes 7 No No No No Yes 19 No No No No Yes 15 No No No No Yes 7 No No No No Yes 8 No No No No Yes 23 No No No No Yes 127 No No Yes No No 143 No No Yes No No 126 No No Yes No No 144 No No Yes No No 142 No No Yes No No 104 No No Yes No No 129 No No Yes No No 140 No No Yes No No 144 No No Yes No No 144 No No Yes No No Please can someone suggest what the issue(s) might be?

So I've had my pc for about maybe 9 to 11 months, built it myself, and have been noticing frame drops on some games and where I've been able to see the most noticeable difference is Overwatch (ew I know). I run an rtx 2080 super 8gb vram, 16gb 3600mhz, ryzen 5 5600x, boot on m.2 ssd and extra sata ssd, and 1440p 144hz monitor. Now I'm able to run most of my games at max settings and I'm not too worried about running all my games at 144 fps, but when I play overwatch my settings are at max still at 1440p, display based fps and have never changed my settings and had no issues and I have an fps counter always on. Recently I've noticed that my frames are jumping all over the place from 154 (for some reason it goes that high on display based) to 70 to 100 and just keeps jumping up and down and very rarely has spasms of fps under 60. I've never seen any changes in other games because they don't have fps counters to see but I don't know my performance changed now even though my pc has had no issues before. Is there any explanation as to why my performance has gone down and ways to fix it?

Hello everyone:) First of all, please excuse me, if my grammar is not the yellow from the egg, english is not my native language:D Specs of my system: Ryzen 5 3600X no OC ASUS ROG Strix RTX 3080 10GB no OC 16GB DDR4 3200Mhz RAM MSI X-570 A-Pro MB Latest Drivers for GPU and Chipset and here's a userbenchmark score: UserBenchmarks: Game 192%, Desk 96%, Work 182% CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600X - 91.5% GPU: Nvidia RTX 3080 - 213.9% SSD: Samsung 850 Evo 120GB - 79.2% SSD: Samsung 850 Evo 500GB - 116.1% SSD: Samsung 980 NVMe PCIe M.2 1TB - 243.2% HDD: Seagate ST1000LM035-1RK172 1TB - 69.6% RAM: Kingston HyperX DDR4 3200 C16 2x8GB - 87.4% MBD: MSI X570-A PRO (MS-7C37) I believe it's since i upgraded my system from a 2060 to an ASUS Strix 3080 i get consistent frame drops in every game that i play in fullscreen every 7 seconds. and when i say every 7 second i mean i can literally count to seven and it will drop...that can't be normal. I'm going to upload a screenshot from AC Valhalla, that pretty much shows my drops in that little graph. I get those drops in every game, if it's Cyberpunk or Superhot, so it can't be graphics alone. As soon as i set every game to windowed borderless mode, the drops are completely gone but not every game has that option for example AC Black Flag. I tried troubleshooting the problem several times, heres a list what i tried so far. Disable Windows Fullscreen Optimization Changed windows high DPI Settings Disabled all the Windows gaming functions Closed MSI Afterburner and Riva Tuner in the Background Tweaked a few settings in the Nvidia Control Panel like threaded optimization and tripple buffering Set the refresh rate from my Monitor to 60Hz Enable/disable V-Sync in game and in the Control Panel I probably tried even more, but i lost track.... I ran out of ideas where this problem might be coming from and before i reset my system i wanted to ask you guys. Just tell me if i forgot to mention something.

Now that I have seemed to have found the right Forum page About a month ago I decided to install COD Warzone, and things were going great, my system ran it fine, no frame issues, lagging or anything at all until an update came out for the game and then I seemingly couldn't run it for longer than 15-20 minutes without it crashing. I tried a couple things, changing setting to favor preformance in GeForce Experience, trying to adjust different settings in GeForce Experience, sover clocking my GPU, in which nothing really prevailed, and I believe its all due to my hard drive, after all I would run my task manager while playing Warzone and everytime it crashed my Disk usage was at 100%, meanwhile my GPU, CPU and Memory was only barely being halfway used, sometimes not even close to 50%. I just ended up giving up on the game and figured I'd play it on console, no biggy. The issue is that after I uninstalled I seemed to have massive framedropping issues in every game that I would play. In games like Rust, Minecraft and Destiny, I would get unbearable frame drops (especially in destiny 2, it would piss me off to an extreme lol), in which I would be playing and every 3-20 seconds I would just be getting horrible frame drop from 60 FPS down to the 20s or even 10s, and I would just give up playing games because I couldn't enjoy playing them because my frames would just take a shit every few seconds. Here is where I am at a loss, I tried multiple things and I have seen no return to how my system use to run, efficient with no frame drops what so ever. I tried multiple things to see if it would fix the issue, Defragging my Hard Drive, scanning it for bad sectors, enabling write caching and just deleting large files that I dont use anymore. I come here in hopes that someone can help resolve the issue, I am really a Novice when it comes to any computer fixing or troubling shooting or anything like that (as you can probably tell in reading all of this) I mean I built my own PC but in all honesty I am not the most technology advanced person. so like I said I am just reaching out in hopes that someone who knows way more than me can help. I am sure including the parts to my build may help some people understand what the issue is better, or maybe not at all, but reguardless I will include them Motheboard: MSI X270 Gaming Pro Carbon CPU- i-7 7700K Memory- 2 of Trident G.Skill 8 GB GPU- EVGA GeForce 1060 3GB SC Gaming Storage- Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB I think its clear that out of all the parts I decided to cheap out on storage and got a HDD because I thought getting alot of cheap storage would be better than getting a little of fast storage, and I think that is defiently a lesson I have learned this path month. In the future I do plan on getting a SSD to add onto my build for obvious reasons, but for now I am stuck and hoping someone can help, thanks!

i keep getting random frame dips about every 4 seconds while watching hulu on google chrome and gaming using directx9 anyone else experiencing this issue???

Hello, Current PC Specs: OS Drive: 250GB Samsung EVO 850 SSD - I have more storage than this it's just not important to the problem CPU: 8700K - Overclock to 4.9Ghz MoBo: Gigabyte Z370 AORUS Gaming 7 GPU: Galax GTX 1080 Sniper Edition RAM: Gskill 32GB at 2400Mhz Recently I've been having a problem on my computer where having applications open combined with Destiny 2 or Rainbow Six Siege will cause my computer to have very laggy mouse movements. It has a delay and whips around the screen not following my mouse movements 1 to 1. I have found that turning ShadowPlay off helps a fair bit but even then if I need to turn around really fast or there is a lot happening on screen it can sometimes still have issues causing the mouse to feel slow and whip past whatever I was trying to hit. Closing chrome seems to help but at that point of closing things what's the point I'm meant to have a high end PC that can multitask without having to close things. I have also noticed that when it does these strange sluggish mouse movements that the FPS dips a fair bit. This is also along with the fact that it's not running at what I would consider to be a normal frame-rate either. Before this started happening I would be running at 140+ FPS in Destiny 2 now it's sitting anywhere from just above 60 in the dips to 100 FPS at the highest with it normally resting around 80 to 90 during "normal" gameplay. I would really like to avoid reinstalling my OS as I wouldn't be able to be sure that I saved everything and if I used the windows backup feature I would be worried that the problem could follow over to the new install anyway without wiping the drive. Is there some way I can test to see if it's really my CPU and not my windows install? Would it be fine to install a different motherboard and CPU and just install the drivers for that on my current OS drive? I know that installing lots of drivers on an OS can cause problems. Not to mention that it would be going from an intel CPU and MoBo to a AMD Ryzen CPU and MoBo. As a strange obvseration I recently bought the new CoD Modern Warfare and none of this seems to be a problem. I can have chrome and shadowplay on while playing just fine which doesn't make any sense since its a new title. As I said before I have another motherboard and CPU, A Ryzen CPU and MoBo that has its own SSD with a windows install that I was thinking of using and just copying over what I need but things like itunes, and powershell with php and other apps that I have set up aren't just a simple copy and paste. Ryzen Specs: OS Drive: 500GB Samsung 860 EVO SSD - I bought this system recently which is why it has a better SSD than my main rig CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600X MoBo: Gigabyte X470 AORUS Gaming 5 WiFi GPU: Galax GTX 1080 Sniper Edition - I take it out of my main system normally RAM: Gskill 32GB at 2400Mhz - Same with ram If you have any tests or ways to help me identify what the problem is I'm all ears. I would like to avoid reinstalling windows but if it comes to that I'll have to spend days making sure I get everything and save all my application settings. I'm happy to post some unlisted videos on YouTube if you would like to see what the problem looks like in action. Cheers for any help
