Could i get more out of my pc if i get better/worse componets

[Melvix_]

Hi im kind of new to pc building, and i was wondering if some of you people know why i get stuttering/lag on diffrent games, like Pubg, Far Cry, Tomb raider Etc.  if it has something to do with my components bottlenecking each other  

 

Cpu: intel core I7-7800x

Gpu: Msi Gtx 980 ti Twin frozr 

Motherboard: Asus prime x299-A 

Ram: Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 3200mhz 2x8

Psu: Cooler master B700 ver.2 

 

Thanks for answer

well, the gpu is like a 1070 these days, but I don't see why lag would occure. tried benchmarking it, overclocking, or something like that?

How many GB of VRAM does your GPU have?

Since graphics on games update maybe you don't have enough VRAM to run at the quality you want.

You should also check on your BIOS if your RAM is running at the specified 3200mhz.

Running an SSD I take it? Or still running a spinner?

i dont remember the scores on benchmark at the top of my head but i think the CPU score is 1200/1300 on cinabench cant remember the gpu. i havent tried overclocking it, becouse i dont know what to do and im abit scared to destroy something if  do ;S

 

the GPU has 6gb VRAM, i will check the ram later when im home at the computer.

Could you tell what games you play and describe that stuttering/lag?

Look at some of the settings ingame, might make it stutter if you have too high anti aliasing or perhaps v-sync is enabled

i play almost every thing from Battlefield, Pubg, Call Of Duty, Counter Strike, Ark, Gta, etc

 

the stuttering happens sometimes when i just move my mouse, but mostly when i am in a specific place on a game that has alot of things going on at the same time.

I would suggest measuring temperatures and clock speeds. Do clock speeds drop when stuttering happens? How high do your temps get?

havent been looking to much at temperatures/ clockspeeds but will be testing alot today.
