Swapping GPU problems :(

[Skillinky]

Hi, I recently upgraded from a GTX 1050 Ti to a RTX 3060 TI. I am having some performance problems like if there is something bottlenecking my GPU. At first it was the ram because I only had 8gb of ddr4 ram but then I upgraded to 16 gb of ddr4 ram. And now some games like minecraft, GTA online and warzone there is a visible bottleneck in FPS. I think its the motherboard or my PSU. But anyways I dont know what could be the main problem because I dont know much about PC's.

(I have a iBuyPower prebuild that I just upgraded)

 

SPECS...

CPU: Intel i5-11400f

GPU: GTX 1050 Ti to RTX 3060 Ti 

RAM: 8gb of ddr4 ram to 16 gb of ddr4 ram
PSU: I cant find this out because it does not list it on the website
MOBO: B560 DS3H AC-Y1

SSD: two 500gb before there was only one

PC BEFORE UPGRADES:https://www.bestbuy.com/site/ibuypower-tracemr-gaming-desktop-intel-i5-11400f-8gb-memory-nvidia-geforce-gtx-1050ti-4gb-480gb-ssd/6458322.p?skuId=6458322

Explain what you mean by visible bottleneck. How are you determining that

[Skillinky]

Like in Minecraft I get many stutters and frame drops on low settings and on high. in GTA when I change the graphics from low to high there is no change in fps. Hope that helped

Did you ddu the old drivers and install the new ones. Also nobody will know youve responded if you dont quote them

sorry, I didnt know. I did try to do it after I installed the gpu and installed the new driver it pormpted me to do. I also fiddled around with uninstalling and re installing driver.But I was wondering if I didnt have to because it was NVIDIA to NVIDIA.

This is what i found out. Loads of information for you.

The pc you got comes with different specs. They have power supplies that range from 400 watt to 700 watt. Your pc origionally had a 65 watt tdp cpu and a 75 watt tdp graphics card so i recon ibuypower dropped a low wattage power supply in it and that's a problem. You should be concerned. Also the psu's they use tend to be pretty poor quality. You should try watching some dawid does tech stuff. He get's right in about these prebuilds and highlights where they cut corners to save money. Cheap low wattage psu's. Single stick of ram. Insufficiant cpu coolers. Cheap m-atx motherboards etc.

Open the tower. Look at the psu. You should see what looks like a spec sheet on the side of it. Tell us the wattage of that psu and also the make if you can. It's important.

Fyi the 3060 ti is a 200 watt tdp card. I'm using one myself. It requires a 600 watt power supply although it can run just fine on a good 500 watt psu. If your psu isn't strong enough, it can cause performance issues. And trust me the 3060 ti is a very power hungry card.

Btw, another thing i thought of, the new ram you bought. Did you enable xmp for it? It's in the bios. The problem could be that your ram is running at default low speeds.

But listen. I can't stress enough how important it is for you to figure out your power supply.

WOW, thank you so much for this information. I will get back to you as fast as possible with the PSU. I will also try to enable the xmp for the ram. I cant thank you enough!!

I just have one question. With the way my computer is right now is it safe for me to play games on it and use It for daily use?

That seems pretty reasonable for a midrange machine.

Since I have a 500 watt psu is it normal for my Rtx 3060 ti to get hot fast while I’m playing gta and games like that?

Okay, I have upgraded to a RM750 psu and I can see a noticable difference in FPS but my GPU usage is around 50% and 60%
