[Problem] Good Computer. Crap Frames. Just me??

[VeraFoxx]

So, basically I have a pretty good computer as you would say. Specs listed below. But what I can’t understand is the trash frames I get. For example Tony Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands, I’m averaging 40fps, Fortnite averaging 100fps, Overwatch 100fps. I don’t get it, is their something I’m doing right or am I forgetting something, just wanna know why I’m getting bad FPS.

 

Thanks to all who help.

 

Specs:

Core i5-7400

500GB-SSD

1TB-HDD

16GB RAM DDR4

Gtx 1070

Running a 144hz monitor.

I'm suspecting a bottleneck

 

 

according to this website(https://thebottlenecker.com/calculator).

Your cpu is too weak for your gpu

 

have you tried running some overlay that displays cpu usage in games?(i.e. msi afterburner OSD)

You can try reinstalling the game, reinstalling GPU drivers, and eventually reinstalling windows.

If the computer isn't performing as expected it's almost always a software issue somewhere.

I have similar PC specs (in my sig.)  You can obviously adjust graphics settings in both Fortnite and Overwatch for better FPS.  Also have you tried turning on MFAA globally in Nvidia Control Panel?  It can help with FPS in games that use MSAA.  I also read RAM speeds can affect gaming performance, but I don't know by how much.

I will try that, thanks.
