New PC build- disappointing performance

[NYanakiev]

Hi everyone,

I have been faced with issues since putting mew new build together- specs below:

CPU: i7 7700K; cooler NZXT Kraken X62
MB: Asus Maximus IX Code
RAM: 2x8 GB's Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 3000MHz
GPU: MSI GeForce GTX 1080 TI GAMING X
PSU: EVGA Supernova P2 850W

SSD 1: Samsung 960 PRO 512GB M.2 NVMe SSD
SSD 2: Samsung 850 EVO 250GB 
HDD: 1TB Seagate Barracuda 
CASE: Define R5 Titanium
MONITOR: 27 Acer Predator XB271HK 4K G-sync

OS: Windows 10 Home, Version 1607
Driver: 384.94

I had stuttering and poor FPS while on Win 10 Creators Update- downgrading to Anniversary Update did not result in much of an improvement.

4k benchmark with 1080TI:  

My result 4kultra, no antialiasing; GSYNC on

Total War Warhammer 4K 1080TI benchmark:

My result 4k ultra, no antialiasing; GSYNC on

As you can see, there is a big disparity between what my PC is producing compared to similarly specced computers. I already exchanged my GTX 1080TI under warranty but am yet to see an improvement.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Nick

Not sure what happened- I tried amending the font a few times but nothing would change. Mods help please?

[kaiju_wars]

I can't read any of that... it's all the lightest gray in existence.

[TheV_Machine]

!highlight it as if you want to copy the whole text that helps!...kinda

first of, damn, thats an expensive build from your specs its hard to say anything about eventual problems resulting of two or more hardware parts in your build, and as far as i know, these problems are not very common. First of, when did you build this pc and duid you have the same problems before going to creators update or did you ever use windows with this pc before win10 creators update? Still i would recommend turning off DVR i think it is in the xbox app or in the general settings, its know to sometimes cause lower framerates. another cause might be g-sync, try turning it off everywhere( on your monitor, your gpu settings and in the games youre benchmarking and look if that changes anything

[Cruorzy]

It's perfect for dark theme

Anyway i got the same 1080 TI still running a old CPU with intentions of upgrading in a month or something..

So ill be watching this if you find the reason to your problem

[Shiv78]

Have you reinstalled the drivers using DDU? and also have you tried rolling back drivers?

[Modzy]

i can read it fine with the dark forum theme.

As for the post itself. your videos are 30fps so without an fps or frame time counter it's hard to make out the issue visually. 

if you could provide us with something like a fraps benchmark log showing both min/avg/max fps + frametime log then we can see what you see on screen.

Now you can read it

[NYanakiev]

Sorry about the font, it won't change no matter what I do..

 

@Shiv78 I have done that multiple times, yes. I have also tried running W10 Anniversary Update; I updated back to Creators Update recently as part of my troubleshooting process (also suggested by NVIDIA's support guy);

Edit the post, high light everything and click the "Tx" button in the top right side of the toolbar, to the left of Size.

There was a FPS counter in his video

Thanks- fixed

Rivatuner, which requires MSI afterburner might be a better option.

Give way for information like vRAM the card is using Temp, Clock speed.

 

Also CPU and RAM information

 

Would suggest to use that a bit, maybe there is some useful information

I actually have Rivatuner installed (courtesy of my MSI mobo) so I will log some more data to post here.

Curiously enough, titles like Witcher 3 run at 4k ultra at close to 60fps. However, as illustrated with my TW Warhammer and Hellblade examples, there is a hard to explain drop in the aforementioned games. 

 

Having recently updated from i5 6600k, 980ti, 8gb RAM and a z170 mobo, I was expecting much better performance.

Not to mention that the firestrike score looks pretty good...

[Constantin]

that MSI is incorrigible

[TheV_Machine]

it ight just be an error of the futuremark page that your link leads to. Under Processor it says, atleast for me, that it has "Physical / logical processors 1 / 8", but below that the number of physical cores is correctly shown with # 4. maybe im just misunderstanding the layout of the page, but maybe your cpu is your problem

 

hope i could help

Yeah, that looks a bit odd. The number of cores is correctly stated as 4, though. Go figure..

[NYanakiev]

I also did the following test someone recommended:

 

Run HWInfo64

• Sensors Only
• bottom right - LOGGING START
• Leave it running in the Background
  
• Download 3DMark
  
• Install
• Run it
• Run only the Firestrike TEST / DEMO
• Compare Results Online is a Webpage
• Post Link to Webpage here
  
• Close 3DMark / Firestrike
• Get Screenshot(s) HWinfo64 showing all info
• Post screenshots of HWinfo64

HWinfo64 screenshots: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0BwiW09n3mzVAQ1ItYm55cHlDOG8

Any further ideas? I am thinking of selling my 4k screen and going for a 1440p high refresh rate monitor instead. It would seem that it's just too early for 4k and not worrying about fiddling with settings.
