Underperforming PC

[RicemasterPleb]

Hi All,

Im having some trouble with my new pc. Here are the specs:

ASUS ROG STRIX GTX 1080TI 11GB

ASUS ROG Z370 E 

8GB Hyper X Fury

Intel i7-8700k

SanDisk SSD 120GB

Seagate Barracuda 1.5TB

The problem is that once I booted up Forza Motorsport 7, I was only getting 36FPS on max settings. I knew this was not normal so I went on userbenchmark and saw that my pc was underperforming. I don’t know what to do now, any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

what kind of resolution are you running? forza 7 is a fairly finicky game, since the bulk of it runs off of only 1 core from your processor. increasing your memory to 16gb may help a little but would fluctuate at most to probably around 2-10 fps depending on the scenario

Hey Derrk,

I’m running it at 1920x1080. As for upgrading the ram, I’d like to do it in the future, but it’s just not possible for me right now.

Thanks

i added a thread in my last post from a forza user with similar issues. Ram may not be the perfect solution, but you may find some answers in that thread! best of luck
