rtx 2070 underperform (laptop)

[moi67]

hi guys 

it seems that my rtx 2070 in my laptop (asus rog srix g15) is underperform 

 

its allways stays at the 50-70 % of usage during games 

what weird is that at the lobby of the game (apex lagends) it shows me 97% of usage of the gpu 

 

so what is going on ? 

 

im sure that the FPS i get is lower than it supposed to be 

 

ive already undervolted the cpu by -200mv if thats affect somthing 

 

thanks !

When the GPU is not running at 95-100% then it's probably a CPU bottleneck. If you're running the CPU undervolted it probably isn't boosting as high as when using normal voltage. Depending on the game you can't do anything about a potential bottleneck when using a laptop.

Lobbys often arent rendered in the inga e engine. You might have many hundreds of FPS, pegging your Gpu. 

 

So lets star with basics. 

 

What's your cpu? 

What resolution are you running? 

What are your cpu/gpu temps?

hi 

 

cpu is - i7 10750h undervolted by -210 mv 

 

res is 1080p

and the temp are for the cpu (after the undervolting of course) its like 77-81 degrees

and gpu its 76 degrees

 

it just feel to me that im not using the full power of the 2070 (and youtube benchmarks shows me that my concern is legit , people getting much higher FPS then me with the same set up )

UPDATE -

 

 i just find out that the load of the gpu is linked to the graphic preset 

 

i mean , if i play on ultra setting it shows me a higher usage of gpu 

but if i set the settings to LOW it reduce the gpu usage 

 

so basiclly right now i cant lower the graphics to achive higher FPS because as i low the settings the GPU usage automatically reduced

 

what can i do to fix it ?

The reason it's "linked" is because when you set the settings to low you are CPU dependent and your CPU isn't fast enough to push out enough frames for your GPU to get to 100% load. You can't fix this. Either play at ultra settings and take advantage of the GPU or don't but unfortunately you are limited by your CPU's performance.
