Posted June 12, 2024 I installed a used 1660 Super as a second gpu for some extra monitors. playing a youtube video lags and pins it to 100%, and moving a window makes it spike to 20%. its a basic 2560x1080 Monitor, and it was doing that on 60hz mode. if i put it to 120hz, Moving the mouse literally makes it spike to 17%. what could possibly be wrong with it? it worked fine on the system it was just on earlier today. I have a Ryzen 9 5900X and Asus Prime B-350 Plus, theres no bottleneck. Weirdly, my Main GPU seems to be going to higher utilization in as well I believe but its hard to tell.

Posted June 12, 2024 Did you install the latest drivers? https://www.nvidia.com/download/index.aspx When i ask for more specs, don't expect me to know the answer!

Posted June 12, 2024 Check PCIe bandwidth correctly in firmware or in GPU-Z. Monitor power and thermals of the GPU. Clean install the drivers. And also, verify that you even have an actual 1660 Super and not something else. Microsoft owns my soul. Also, Dell is evil, but HP kinda nice.

Its running on x16 2.0 where as my 1070 is on x16 3.0. old motherboard limitation maybe? but it should still run fine, especially for just a single extra monitor right now, but that will be 2 monitors on it in the future.

Add that stuff in first post. The more you share the better help you can get. Also tell us some of you setup, because now i would just highly advise removing the extra GPU and connecting both monitors to the 1070. Should be able to handle that really easy.

It just doesn't make sense for it to pin from a youtube video when it worked normally in a different computer, so I'm trying to figure out what else to do. i have 4 monitors on the 1070, I cant hook up more. obviously I would have thought of that if I only had 1 monitor on there.

Do one thing. Remove your 1070 or whatever your other GPU is, and put the 1660 S in that slot, and see if everything is fine. If so, then it is the PCIe bandwidth. Microsoft owns my soul.

Seeing how limited the First Post was, it not weird people make their own conclusions. The lack of specs, no mention of what you already tried, and barely any text formatting, is what gives me that indication. So better safe to be sure, and rule out everything. If you dont want that, add that info to the first post. When i ask for more specs, don't expect me to know the answer! I'm just helping YOU to help YOURSELF!
