Lower Performance on New System

[truebilly]

Hey guys

I posted recently about my Valley benchmarks being lower than my previous system but was told to use games as a real test. When I came around to testing games. They were also underperforming compared to my previous build. Benchmarking on Tomb Raider on the x79, my max fps would easily hit 144 while on the x99 I can only hit 116. On Valley I had around a score of 3700 on my x79 but I'm only getting around 3100 on the new. I even noticed that the GPU usage for both GPU's is not 100% or close. It ranges between 50%-80%. As I said in the previous post, I was expecting the performance to be very similar or at least a little better. The difference is a little too much especially since it is under performing. All stock speed. No overclocks.

The SLI setup in my x99 system is 1 expansion slot closer compared to the x79 which had 2 slot gap between the cards. Also airflow from Side fans on the x99. Though the temperature on the x99 build is only a little bit hotter by 1-4 degrees.

Resolution of 2560x1440 at 144hz on both systems, Settings maxed out in benchmarks

Is this a laptop? No

Does it fucking matter?

Yes.

I've done it before now shut your god damn mouth.

It severally bottlenecks the CPU's full power & GPU's memory is a potential.

Seriously doubt simply changing power settings will fix this:

 

I'm thinking drivers here...

 

OP did you do a clean install of windows and all drivers when you switched platforms or did you stick with the same OS and update drivers?
