Build Upgardes/Part Testing

[Beep or Boop]

Hey guys, posted a while ago about wanting some help on what you guys recommending on what I upgrade first for my system. Life ended up happening and I forgot I had posted it. So here I am again. Back then I was having stutter issues, and I ended up wiping my windows for a fresh install and that seemed to help with some of it. But i'm still getting drops below 60 FPS on some games and it's bothering me. I got: - AMD Ryzen 7 2700x - ROG STRIX B350-F Gaming - 2x8GB 288-Pin DDR4 3000 G.Skill Ripjaws V Series - ThermalTake Toughpower 850W - Geforce GTX 1080 8G. I bought my GTX 1080 on release. And i'm not 100% sure on this, but my tower might of taken a fall with that card inside and it's been damaged without dying completly. So I'm curious what you guys' think I would upgrade in my build first, and also if there is anyway to test if my graphics card is "failing" or at least under performing of what it should be doing.

 

Edit: Temp Wise, the temps for my CPU and GPU both are running around 55-58 C when playing a game such as Escape From Tarkov.

Fps drops and microstutters are usually cause by cpu or ram. Do you have the ram installed in the right slots (2 and 4) and do you have xmp turned on?

Your build looks very solid, I wouldn't think you'd need to upgrade anything, but rather try to troubleshoot.

Right, which is why i'm confused. And yes I have the ram in the right slots and XMP is turned on.

No ideas mate. Try to reinstall drivers, maybe try to overclock your 2700x, if nothing works, maybe a fresh windows install? I also get stutters if my ssd is more than 80% full.

Try to monitor your temps and utilisations during a game that stutters and see if something happens then.

Well i'm more talking about my GPU. Cause I see my GPU being maxed more often then my CPU. And what would you upgrade first on my pc?
