Graphic card not powerful enough ?

[Allegro123]

Hello

 

Hope you all of you are doing fine in this testing times.

 

I would like some guidance on my graphic card. I just got a new custom pc build for me. Here are my specs.

 

CPU : Ryzen7 - 3700X upto 4.40 Ghz
CPU-Cooler : CM - Master Liquid ML240P Mirage
Motherboard : Gigabyte - B450 Aorus Elite
Graphics-Card : RTX2080 Super 8GB - Gigabyte-Windforce
SSD : Samsung - 500 GB (970 EVO PLUS) M.2 NVME
HDD : Seagate - Barracuda 1TB
RAM : 8x2 - Corsair Veng 16GB 3000
SMPS : Thermaltake - BX1 750W RGB
Case : CM - MB511 RGB
Wifi-Card : TPLink - TLWN881ND

 

Problem is I am getting low fps on my games. I run all my games on a 1080 p monitor.

Assasin creed odyssey : high setting 100 fps, ultra avg 72 fps

Dota 2 ultra: 138 fps 

Far cry 5 ultra 80 fps 

 

The benchmark numbers on various website show a lot more. Am I just being paranoid ? Or does there seem to a issue ? The temps stay at 80 deg after long gaming setion.

 

Thank you so much for the help

try reinstalling any drivers you have. if you really want to, reinstall your os. if you are using userbenchmark, their numbers might be inaccurate

Okay will try it out first thing tomorrow. Thank a lot for your reply will keep you posted

Did you enable XMP in your motherboard's BIOS to make sure your ram is running at the right speed?

make sure they're installed on the 2nd and 4th slot from the left, as well as XMP/DOCP is enabled in bios

hmm... could it be pcie bandwidth related? unlikely though

 

is it possible to benchmark your cpu and gpu separately?

cpu can be done with cinebench

gpu can be done with 3dmark (and look at gpu score)

Yeah sure will do so. Sorry m new to the forums. And yes I did that. When I play Assassin creed odyssey my gpu usage is around 96% and cpu is around 50%. So I guess gpu is bottlenecking

Yes I have made changes in the bios regarding ram. Will try and benchmark cpu and gpu first thing tomorrow morning. But as stated above while playing odyssey the gpu goes upto 96 % usage and cpu is at 50%

Those numbers don't seem that far off. Look at these videos for example: link and link.

Yeah I am getting similar numbers. Just the benchmarking websites show arnd 15-20 % more fps then m getting that just got me worried a little.

High GPU utilization is exactly what you want. It's not a "bottleneck". The term refers to other components preventing the GPU from maxing out. Some settings that are often left out of benchmark websites include some forms of antialiasing that are computationally heavy.

sometimes benchmarkers have little to no background task running, and their setting might be slightly different from yours, thus the FPS disparity

GPU die also varies from card to card, boost differently from cooler to cooler, so there's another slight diffrence there

Alright cool thanks for the help. I guess I was panicking a bit. Thanks a lot

Ahh.. yeah true that. Thanks for all your help. Truly did help

If you want to be sure that your GPU is not underperforming, I highly recommend downloading 3DMark's demo on Steam and running TimeSpy. You can then compare scores online and that will show you the range of performance that the 2080 Super can achieve. It will provide a total score but you want to look specifically for your graphics score (although nothing wrong with checking to make sure your system runs as well as other 2080s/3700x systems).

 

The scores online, except for outliers, generally represents the range of performance you can expect. But do keep in mind that a lot of people overclock their PCs and they will be represented as well.

Yeah I will give it a shot. Thanks for the suggestion.

You should panic when you see the stupid thing sitting at 10-20% while running as a slide show.... God that happened to me in GTA online a year ago... bad driver installation
