Help! My pc is bottlenecked and no one found the error

[Schmenton]

Hey Guys,

 

my english is not the best, so sorry for that.

 

I paid two different companys to find my bottleneck, but no one found it. I play games on my 32:9 (5120x1440) Monitor and the GPU (RTX 3090) and my CPU (i9-10900x) are not nearly at the limit but i cant reach 60 fps at 1440p. I took a Photo of my specs, maybe someone can help me to find an issue. 

 

Thank you guys

Welcome to the forums!!! 

 

Why does the specs say your RTX 3090s VRAM is 4 GB? Did you buy this card from a trusted seller (Amazon/Newegg)?

You need to run something like firestrike to compare scores with other 3090s.

 

Also depends on the game.

Also open up GPU-Z and see what it says.

 

Otherwise something might be overheating is about all I can think. If the clock stays stable in GPU-Z while running a benchmark.

I dont know why XTU shows 4VRAM. In 3D Mark i‘ve got 24576MB VRAM.

yeah i bought from a trusted shop

Are NVIDIA Control Panel 3D Settings where Power Management is set to performance, and is Windows Power Settings set to High Performance? Are you using any utility software that "prioritizes" cores for specific applications?

Yeah this Settings are at max Performance

How's the temps?

How's the temps?the xtu pic said the cpu did thermal throttle.

CPU temp is most between 50-65

GPU temp is between 60-70

at the Time Spy bench

What CPU cooler do you have exactly? 

[Enzo Lavinsky]

Could you monitor CPU and GPU usage and temps on afterburner and send us a screenshot? You could also try to check your VRM temps on HWinfo, when the VRM overheats it throttles the cpu hard, it's unlikely that this is the case but it doesn't hurt to check.

If you're running stuff maxxed out with ray tracing 60fps would be more expected there

Those coolers have an inherent problem that the II were not fixed... Also, how did you manage to use a sTR4 only cooler on a i9-10900X (Intel's HEDT X299 platform). That cooler is only meant for AMDs HEDT sTR4 and they are junk coolers anyway.

No worries, it appears your temperatures are good so that is not the issue here. What score did you get in Firestrike?

Have you updated all your software (drivers)? I would try and DDU the graphics drivers and reinstall with a fresh copy.

i try it. thx for your time. while the benchmark is running, in XTU shows Current/EDP Throttling. could this be the problem?

In BIOS, do you have Multi-Core Enhancement or Enhanced Turbo Boost enabled at all? Change it to [AUTO] if so. Anything that prevents the CPU from setting all cores at the highest frequency possible. Remove any OCs on the CPU in general and try again.

All Settings at Auto, i just have X.M.P. enabled

Ok that looks good to me. That's how its been the whole time? What are your CPU/GPU utilizations like (Already know temps of both)?

yes the whole time 

 

utilizations:

after start:

CPU: 1%
GPU: 1%
 

while Games are running:

44FPS

CPU 35%
GPU 2%

It doesn't even look like the GPU is doing any effort. Are you sure you have the Nvidia Drivers downloaded? They can be downloaded from here. https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/drivers/
