Gpu Frame drops?

[xyuri69x]

When im playing CS:GO, im dropping frames every few seconds, and gaining frames. I check my GPU's temperature and its running at 45 degrees? Why is this happening

Are the drivers up to date?

[xyuri69x]

yea they are, and if you need to know my cpu is an i5 4440

To what degree, mate? How large are the jumps?

If they're small decreases and increases, its just the different graphical intensities of the various parts of the game that's causing it.

its jumping around 60-100 fps

It could be your power supply. Make sure all of the connectors are plugged in all the way. If you have a spare PSU laying around plug that in and see if that improves your fps.

Is the frame drop occuring at random times in CS:GO or it happens when you have bunch of other players in your field of view (FOV). If yes, it is perfectly normal even though it can seem excessive. If yes, try changing your FOV in CS:GO. Reducing your fov should help. Reducing your field of view is not the same as changing your viewmodel FOV so be wary of that. To change your FOV, you have to go in advanced settings or something of the sort and reduce. Doing this will enhance your frame rates in general but reduces your field of view so it reduces the amount of what you can see on your display so it reduces the situational awareness but increases the frame rate 

 

I would also like to say that games like CS:GO and TF2 are mostly cpu intensive. It is really light weight on the gpu side of things. Though it does not mean that your cpu is at max load. I max out both of these games at 300 fps (the in  game limit) and I still get significant drops in fps in crowded areas. I am sometimes dropping to 250 fps in cs:go and close to 120 in tf2 in crowded and with moving players. I would like to mention that it should not be a problem to run to run this game on my sedtup and this stil happens.You have to expect frames drop like this games working on the source engine because it is mostly cpu intensive.

 

I would like to know that graphics card you are using because it should not really matter. My friend was able to run cs:go at average 100 fps on low settings on is 4770k's integrated graphics.
