Ok so I recently got a i5-9400f and lpx 16 gigs of ram, a new asus motherboard, and a 240gig ssd. I also got a 1070 gpu about a year ago. Though I have notice I get less frames then this guy who has a 1660 ti and a i5- 9400f on youtube named Benchmarks. I get 40 frames on rust, he gets 120... I get around 50 frames on ark, he gets a lot more. It is same with other gasmes he plays that I play. If you guys know anything please help. I also use steam's fps counter and geforce but both give same fps

are you testing with the same graphics settings as "benchmarks"? Did you install your graphics drivers?

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Does he list the settings that he plays at?

Definitely look  if you are using the same graphic settings. 

 

According to userbenchmark running it at 1080p at max settings the average fps is around 60. So he may have is settings set lower. 

 

And if you want to see what your CPU is running at you could use MSI afterburner.

that metric doesn't sound quite right (although I'm not surprised)

Yeah I know. I don't play rust so I don't really have anything to compare it to myself. Also my computer is a little higher specked so not sure what performance is like on a 1070. Though from what I know of rust I wouldn't say getting around 60 fps on max settings on a 1070 is bad.

 

In saying that could just be an optimisation problem. I.e drivers aren't up to date or something like that. 

 

Also going back to original post what are you using to determine your FPS.

MSI afterburner only told me my CPU temp, also my cpu only stays at 3.89 ghz for no reason...

If your using VGA then as far as I know you cant go much higher then 60 fps anyways. 

 

Also looking at what other people are getting on ARK with a 1070 its around what you get. So idk maybe the guy is lying about what card he is using.

that's normal turbo behavior for your CPU in a gaming load. The single core turbo is 4.1GHz, and you're definitely using more than one core in games.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

You have a point though I wouldnt see why he would do that. I will look into too.

still pretty normal for the CPU to spike up to that.
