not getting expected fps

[steftast1c]

so i finally splashed out for a 2560x1440 144hz monitor and.... I'm unable to hit 144 on most games (yes even doom 2016) specs are:

 

i7 8700k

msi rtx 2070

32gb corsair vengeance 2666

 

 

what the hell is going on?

 

main games i was hoping to play are

 

black desert online (some stuff is tied to client fps)

call of duty modern warfare 

and other triple A games

 

I'm genuinely at a loss as to why I'm unable to hit these framerates

 

 

thanks in advanced

You should mention the resolution and settings you're playing those games at. 144 Hz @ 1080p is totally different from 144 Hz @ 4K in terms of hardware requirements.

 

Maybe run some benchmarks and compare them to other systems with the same specs to see which, if any, of your components runs slower than those of comparable systems.

Here's a benchmark of the 2070 with a 8700k. https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2019-05-07-geforce-rtx-2070-benchmarks-7001

 

It doesn't seem like they can get 144Hz at 1440p.
