Low GPU Usage and FPS

[AdinAck]

I have a gtx 1070 and I want my games to run faster than 60fps because I have a 144hz monitor but not at 144hz because my graphics card get s really hot when I turn on v-sync. On War Thunder, it just sits at 60 fps always even though the GPU usage is 30-35% But I want it to be more like 90fps, How can I tell it to do that?

full spec? it could be a bottleneck. 

[AdinAck]

CPU: fx-6300 Overclocked to 4.2 Ghz

I feel like thats all that could bottleneck it.

yup, that's a big bottleneck, war thunder might be more of a CPU depended game, turn on V-sync.

I did and it was exactly 144fps

whats the problem?

should be able to limit fps in the settings for the card be it afterburner of asus equivalent depending on manufacturer 

[AdinAck]

when v-sync is on, my graphics card fan is really loud which I don't like, I would prefer the game to work at 90fps for less of a load on my GPU and being quieter while still being a pretty good performance.

too much framerate over heats his card

what is your full system spec?

..... don't see the problem, configure the fan curve and get better cooling.  

[AdinAck]

i did configure the fan curve, it is loud, I dont want to overwork my grpahics card at 144hz but I want it to be higher than 60

[SaintPosum]

refer to above post about framerate limiting.

what? you are not overworking anything, graphic cards are designed for that, long as you stay under 85C you should be fine.  

[AdinAck]

But it's loud, that's what I'm saying. the fan is at 100% thus very loud which is my problem I have explained this many times, It is -->loud<--

The noise is the problem

[AdinAck]

how do I framerate limit in afterburner

will it still work with v-sync on?

use the fan curve, what case do you have, it sounds like you have crappy cooling, a gtx 1070 should not go 100% fan speed at 35% gpu utilization. 

[AdinAck]

My case is wood

You obviuosly do not understand the situation, I will explain again: with v-sync on(144fps) 75% utilization or higher but loud fan<--problem. v-sync off my Gpu goes to 60fps which is too low for me but the utilization is about 35% I want the fps to be 90fps not 60(too slow) not 144(too loud) get it??

[AdinAck]

I found the frame limiter in afterburner and will try it

 

[AdinAck]

I set the minimum to 90 and the max to 100 in afterburner, no effect, with v-sync on 250fps for some reason and v-sync off 60fps
