Low Cpu and Gpu usage but games running poorly.

[sainoh]

I have an 17 10750 2070 super and 16 fb ram. I’m running at around 20 per cpu and 30 gpu and having poor performance in most games. I’m talking 60 70 FPS on games I should get well over 140 even on low FPS. I’m just not sure why I’m not even using 50 percent of the hardware and the games are running trash.

Are the clock speeds boosting properly? Is there a thermal throttle problem? Is your ram running at the proper speed, in dual channel? Is the framerate limited in the settings, or by a console command?

I just overclocked my gpu trying to get more. No thermal problem cause even under stress the cpu is around 85 at highest and gpu barley hits 60. The ram I’ll have to look on CPUz to check it. What should I oook for the clock to be in the bios for the ram.

I would look at vsync settings and nvidia 3d settings. Make sure you are setting the 3d settings for the games you play to max performance and to not have vsync enabled. You can change that in the nvidia control panel.

85C at 30% usage is highly uncommon. Either your mistaken or this sounds like a thermal problem to me - which would explain everything  else.

Be sure to use the quote button or we won't see your responses.

 

60 degrees, low GPU usage, your GPU probably isn't being engaged. If you already tried an overclock and it didn't work, you should try uninstalling and getting new drivers.

It is a laptop so it could be the issue. I’ve tried underclocking and it helps temps but doesn’t help much with the performance side of things. And I thought that’skind if what it was suppose to do
