RTX 3080 ti wont run games smoothly

[ZippedMonster]

So i just built a new PC and everytime i start up any game its on 10-15 fps and i dont know why. I have tried upping the power but didnt work, updated the drivers, used older version etc. but still no change at all. Im using 2 ultrawide monitors 3440x1440p. I did benchmark and it showed what it supposed to do. So im kinda stuck rn because i dont know what else could be causing this. I feel like it should handle any game without problems.

Launch a game, and open up Task Viewer in the background. Screenshot the Task Viewer window, and send it here. (please )

Obligatory DDU and driver install but beyond that..

 

We need vitals. What is the CPU and GPU doing while this is happening? Temps, clockspeeds, usage, power draw etc..

 

Basics can be gathered in Task Manager but Afterburners graphs or HWInfo's graphs would be better.

Well im not home rn, but at first it used to be cpu heavy so i changed it to gpu and now the gpu is on 100% and about 15 fps with 55°C. The cpu is on 8% i thought and about 45ish°C. But i will start it up snd test as soon when i‘ll be home.

Okay, so this is when i opened the game and had it run in the background. The taskmanger one was when i had the game windowed. I had like 3 fps ingame. Idk if you can figuere somthing out like this so sorry if not.

Looks like your GPU is running on idle clocks. It says Prozessortakt (core clock) is at 480mhz. It should be a lot higher than that. Also your MSI afterburner doesn't report a lot of things like GPU usage, BUS usage, ... .

 

Is your MSI Afterburner up to date?

Are your drivers up to date?

Did you do any changes in Nvidia control panel?

Well i only screenshoted a few of the graphs afterburner showed bcs most of them were the same and i think yes it is i didnt see any updates for it. And yes everything is updated to the newest version as of now. And i turned off g-sync bcs i dont have a g-sync monitor and i limited the frame rate in hopes it would work but nope.

Echoing this sentiment -- did you DDU your drivers just as a troubleshooting step?

What version of MSI Afterburner do you have?

 

Did you do any changes to power management mode in Nvidia Control Panel oder in Windows power settings.

If you did not wipe your drivers with DDU (also uninstall Geforce Experience) and install them again using the newest version from Nvidias website (https://www.nvidia.de/Download/index.aspx?lang=de).

I changed it to high performance and even ultimate performance mode but that didnt do anything. Ive installed and unistalled them a few times with diffrent versions but no change not even DDUhelped

The best way to test a card is to run a bench.

I have a 5900x with a 3080 ti and this is how it does in Time Spy with everything stock.

Your CPU score would be about the same and your GPU a bit lower.

This is the sort of information you will need if you decide to start a RMA since it shows your clock speed and temperatures.

Okay so this is what i got and this has to be a joke, how can it be that low

There is something defiantly wrong with your setup.

 

Use GPUZ to check the power connectors. 

Looks like this.

I am running Heaven in a window so I can see how much power the card is using from the PCie slot and the 8 pin connectors.

Spoiler

 

Also do you have another computer to test the GPU in?

If not you need to have it tested.

 

Do you have another GPU to test the system?  It would be to rule out the motherboard.

 

Your CPU score is a bit low. Like XMP was not enabled.

This is on the 2nd run of 3DMark and idek. I checked and everything is connected correctly on psu and mobo. 

 

I can test it on a friends pc so i will do that but not now sadly. And no i dont have any other gpu.

 

Could be XMP but i didnt fin it in bios menu.

I would send this image off to Gigabyte and start an RMA.

 

 There are lots of videos on the ROG Crosshair VIII Formula bios. 1:04 ie where XMP is.

So i returned the old gpu and now got a new one and it works finally. Thank you for your help man appreciate it.

It read like a mini nightmare for a while.

 

I am happy it turned out well for you.

Haha yes it was one, but it works now its just overheating so much in such a short time  even if i have 6 pull and 3 push fans

3080 tis are hard to cool.

I ended up replacing all my gaming cases.

 

Now I have cases with the intake blow the GPU and all the rest of the fans as exhaust.

Looks like this.

With one intake fan it ran Heaven Bench at 66c. It now has 2 and it runs the bench at 62c. The intake fan is a Noctua NF-A12x25.

Spoiler

 

On my standard cases that have the PSU on the bottom I use Noctua 60mm fans.

Looks like this.

It stops hot air getting trapped below the GPU.

Spoiler

 

This is my 5900x/3080 ti setup. It will gat a 3rd intake fan at some point since the old lian li o11 dynamic is a bit warmer than the new EVO version.

What case do you have and how are those fans set up?

 

Tons of fans doesn't mean good airflow.

I noticed you have a CM H500 ARGB. 

I have two builds using them.

At first both had 2080 tis and they were fine with the stock fan setup. One got a Strix 3080 and it was fine even with the card at 450 watts. 

With an EVGA XC3 Ultra that has dismal cooling I had to put a 140mm fan(D-15) on top and a 60mm fan below the GPU. Cooling is now ok but I would like to get it better.  

Did you do a custom fan setup in the case?

Nope stock fans with custom profile. Never had any issues cooling my GPU or my CPU so I didn't bother changing anything.

 

Have the two 200mm running at max speed all the time (they are very quiet). Have the NH-D15 fan and the exhaust fan tied to CPU temp (max speed at 75C on the CPU (I believe)).

Max temp on the GPU while gaming usually is around the 72C mark. Max temp I have ever seen is 74C. Hot spot is usually around 85C have yet to see hot spot going over 90C.

CPU temp when gaming is usually high 50s low 60s. Max temp I have seen on the CPU was 75C during stress tests.

Ambient is usually about 20-22C.

My Strix 3080 that used the same cooler as your 3080 ti version had no issue with the case using the stock fans .

It is only the EVGA cards that are a bit too toasty.

 

I think the Strix line were the best of the 30 series.
