Slower computer due to new gpu

[dabritgamer]

Hi all,

i have recently got a new gpu (amd 570 8gb armor) for Christmas and ever since installing it, i have had a extremely slow pc, i can no longer load up games and brows the internet at the same time and all in all, there is just a heavy feel when i try to do basic operations,

i relive it may be my cpu due to to its age. (amd fx 4300) but am not sure, 

before i have a 1030 gpu and everything still seemed to run fine,

can anyone give any suggestions,

 

thanks

jacob

 

Specs:

12gb ddr3

500w smart seriers PSU

GIGABYTE 78LTM USB3 R2

Did you uninstall your old drivers? Use DDU

Did you install the latest drivers from the AMD website for your new card? 

 

Also, yes, the FX4300 is a very underpowered CPU, but it shouldn't mean worse performance.

You know what DDU is? It's much better than using the regular driver uninstallers.

That CPU cant handle the 570 ...... Someone with a powerful CPU will get say 100fps ,, but with your cpu is will be 50fps, and when its 60fps yours will be under 30fps and not playable.  You should consider upgrading your CPU as its a huge bottleneck even if you overclocked that CPU.  The 1030 is not really a gaming card.  Also the reason why your experiencing this in the first place is because when you do switch overs,, like go from nvidia to a ati card,, or vice versa, problems can arise.  The 570 should be ok after the DDU and clean install of drivers,, The 570 is a fast card so you will notice a difference compared to the POS 1030 card.

i did a full clean using DDU, but when launching and playing a game of fortnite, i was getting extremely low fps and my graphics card wasnt even at 30%

on Christmas day i was getting 200fps so i am extremely confused why this is happening

[Turtle Rig]

This is happening because you went from a nVidia to big red.  If DDU doesn't do it.  Only thing left to do is,, Run DDU again in safe mode if possible, then this time install earlier version drivers like couple months old.  Unless you have a 590 or something updating drivers is not recommended unless you have a problem.

Also make sure vsync is off in panel and also in game.  Give her a shot, let us know.

while in safemode thats when you run ddu to get rid of the nvidea stuff.

Thanks circeseye.  Yes or you can go to start / run and type in "msconfig" without the quotes and select boot and choose safe mode.  Exit app, and restart it will go to safe mode where it is minimal, you cant do anything in it just try to save a system that's dying.  Anyhow after this safe mode DDU , then reboot, get into windows and use driver that circeseye said.  Ill try to search for you you can find it.... np
