Frame Rate Problems

[Skillinky]

Hi, so I have made many forums in the past about my pc having these constant frame rate issues. Not all of them seem to help, or they do but not help me find the problem with my pc. 

 

What is happening is my pc is being bottlenecked by something or a setting thats like capping most of its performance.

 

No matter what the game quality preset is I get the same amount of frame drops paired with the “bottlenecked frame rate”.

 

An example is Minecraft. On the Nvidia's recommended settings for that game  and barley manage 70 fps.

 

It would mean so much if someone can please just help me out, thank you.

 

specs: 

Rtx 3060 ti

i511400f

16gb ram ddr4

750 watt psu

2 500gb ssd

Whats your monitor? Also, make sure youve installed the nvidia driver instead of just the one included with windows. And then from there check your GPU and CPU clock speed, temperature, and power consumption. You can observe both with HWiNFO64.

My monitor is a msi 165 hz i think an optix something. If possible could you dumb that down a little? Its also nut just fps games its also applications running slow like photoshop adobe premiere pro etc…

Okay then...

1. If you havent already installed your nvidia driver, then you should do it now. Windows Update can fetch basic adapter driver thatll let GPUs work, but in a lot of cases this doesnt let a lot of games run well or sometimes even run at all. That also explains slowdowns in adobe suite, you need nvidia driver to get CUDA to work properly. If you have, try just updating it. If it doesnt work then try reinstallation. Firstly youll need to fetch another app called Display Driver Uninstaller, and follow its instructions that pops up. As the computer restarts, disconnect your system from the internet. And then, start installing the driver again.
2. These are pretty self explanatory. We gotta check whether your temperature is up to par or if your system is overheating. Modern CPUs and GPUs have its own preservation system in thermal throttling and power throttling to avoid too much heat or electrical current from hitting the silicon which would cause massive wear and tear. Of course this cause a massive performance tank in compensation. HWiNFO is just an app that can easily help you on observing the built in temperature and voltage sensors in motherboards, GPU, and CPU to see if everything is up to parameter. You dont need to try to interpret it if you already have a hard time, just send a screenshot of the entire sensor readout, you can see just these by ticking sensors-only option when you launch HWiNFO. If you dont use that option, then open the main big window, and click on the button sensors, it should look like a thermometer iirc.

I figured out the problem. I have a real shitty ssd and its always on 100% utilization. Could that be why? I’m also working on what you suggested.

If your monitor has freesync and you have discord or chrome open in a secondary monitor that has a lower refresh rate this can also be the cause of that

I have nothing open when im testing except the game and turn off vsync/freesync
