5820K - Drastically Underperforming

what slot is your graphics card plugged into? can you check your manual and make sure its not it the single 2.0 slot on the board? 

just try changing the slot out of interest =)

https://downloadcenter.intel.com/ Find the latest driver.  If you really don't have this installed that can be part of the problem.

They aren't CPU drivers. They are chipset drivers.

My frame rates have only recently tooken a dive, as when I had this system a year ago, my frame rates we're fine.

I apologize if this adds nothing to the thread. But some people really do forget to change this after installing a new version of Windows.

ok just a thought, this guy had almost the same issue you are having with his game that you are having with yours, almost same hardware too, might be worth a try cant lose anything =)

If anything is out of date that could be an issue though.  Also, quick question!  Are you running a newer Nvidia driver?  Cuz those are buggy as hell.  I'd rolled back to a previous one.

I am on the latest driver update.

 

I will rollback to a previous release.

Thanks for the help.

any joy dude? 

None. I will put my 980 in my test bench and see if it's causing the issues. If it's my i7, I will buy another one.

Today is going to be expensive.

So your Graphics Card was limiting your CPU?? Didn't get that lol..

 

-Btw maybe the poor CPU performance was due to Parked CPU cores?

 

When I upgraded from Win 7 to Win 10, my FX-8350 performed HALF of what it used to.

I found it it was because half of the "cores" were parked in Windows :lol: 

Just had to "un-park" them in the registry, and the performance was back to normal.

 

Your test results being half of what others get with 5820k could look like it :lol:

I would say it was my 980 having damaged silicon...

All I know is my problem is solved.

Can I have your damaged 980?  

Probably still performs a hell of a lot more than my old 6990 :lol:  :lol:  hahaha
