Magic FPS Drop

[ShavedCloaca]

Hi,

 

Recently i re-did my water-cooling for my pc, no changes in hardware or software, only change was the tubing and fittings so bares no relevance to this you might think.

Before i did this, i was getting 144fps at 144hz on my 1440p ROG swift monitor, for most games, most played is overwatch, so i know my average fps.

After doing this, i am now unable to get above 70fps on most games, temps are fine, GPU is running the same as it would normally.

I am unbelievably confused at the moment, i have updated GPU drivers and fiddled with the clock speeds, but no change.

 

any ideas here would be of much help.

 

Many Thanks,

ShavedCloaca

 • Double check that the card/s is/are seated in the slots all the way.

 

 • Make sure vsync is off in game.

 

 • Make sure all the power cords are fully pluged into your video card.

 

 • Be sure to use all the power input ports on your video card.

 

 • Make sure all the power cords are fullyfully connected to your monthdoard.

 

 • Be sure to check that the video cable is compleatly pluged in to your GFX card.

 

I hope one of these fixes your problem.

nope didn't work,

Fired up a fire strike benchmark and saw that my GPU is only using half of the memory it has available.

Just had a thought.

Plug the fans back in and just let them hang there and see what happens. Maybe it thinks the fans are missing so its derated the card/s.

Make sure the fans can spin.

 

Good luck.
