Frame spikes

[Nickolass]

Ive been getting a bunch of frame spikes in game, and Im trying to narrow it down. How would I know if its my gpu or cpu? Or some other part?

play your game while task manager is open in the background. then post screenshots from the performance tab after about a minute.

 

also, post your system specs. 

[gloop]

Full specs?

 

By ‘spikes’ do you mean a huge jump or drop in frames?

The names of the parts in your system 

 

Frame spikes usually can be anything. 

Most common are cpu bottlenecks 

Ram shortage

or vram shortage

 

Could you maybe tell us what games you are playing and in what settings ? Also in Taskmanager you should be able to tell if your ram or vram is full

And if your cpu always thrusts to 100% and the gpu doesn't Wich would intend a cpu bottleneck

It happens in almost every game I play.

Is XMP for the RAM enabled?

Yes but i was having problems with 3600 for some reason, so I put it down to 3466
