2070s GPU Underperforming?

[Swiizy]

I have a 2070 SUPER paired with a Ryzen 2700x (Overclocked to 4.0 Ghz) with 16 GB 3200 RAM and I believe its under performing.

1. For some reason whenever I try to overclock my GPU with MSI Afterburner it seems to crash games quite often. So I left it at default settings.
2. When I use Userbenchmark to benchmark my system it always tells me my GPU is underperforming

If you know a fix to this that would be awesome! Thanks!

userbenchmark is trash. its not reliable and its just plain stupid. (see news about it. that website is dumb). 

 

if you want to actually know about performance. look for online reviews and see what kind of performance numbers they are seeing in benchmarks and compare it with yours. 

 

Edit: just look here for proof that userbenchmark has zero credibility

I ran 3dmark Demo and I had about 10 less points than a 2700x and a normal 2070 in time spy

10 points is not much at all, its possible windows was doing things in the background or you had other programs open etc.

 

GPU's mostly either work, or they don't. What is your 2070 super boosting to? What temps is it running at?

 

To OC it in afterburner, just up the power target and temp slides to max and let GPU boost do its thing, don't even try and mess with adjusting the core speed. Or, you can use Afterburners OC Scanner, its does 98% as good a job as I can do with hours of tweaking.... And then bump the memory up like ~400 MHz and call it a day.

10 points is margin of error. its running fine.

I have a 2070 S and he has a normal 2070 though.

oh. I read the question wrong then. contact the manufacturer?

I'm not able to OC though. When I try to or even let the scanner my games still crash.

They crash even when the overclock is applied by the scanner?

 

Realistically if you just bump the power and temp sliders up to the max, your just allow the card to draw more power and get warmer before it stops upping the clock. If you only those 2 things, it shouldn't crazy. Although, if your VRM or chip is really poor for some reason, I suppose its possible.

Yes it still crashes then. I put power and temp to max and still see crashes. Even if I do slight OC's I still get crashes.
