GTX 1070 FTW2/1080 TI FTW3 low fps and stuttering in 1080p

Hello Everyone,

 

My Specs
ASUS H-87I Plus M-ITX
I7-4771 @3.9 Ghz
Corsair H80i v2
EVGA GTX 1070 FTW2
Samsung EVO 500 GB

Corsair Vengenance LP 16GB DDR3
Corsair HX1000i

 

My system started stuttering after I bought a 1070. Previously I had a 750TI and none of these problems were present.  When I play GTA5 and BF1, it stutters very briefly once or twice every minute. I tried tweaking certain things and nothing helps.

 

Apart from stuttering, I am also getting bad FPS. At 1080p Ultra settings in BF1 and Directx12 turned off, I get 70-90 FPS. I also get this whining from GPU whenever I game. When I switch to windows, it stops. This whining is also in-sync with stuttering as it also momentarily stops when game stutters, so I know that stuttering is connected to this whining. I tried this with fans at %0 to make sure it wasn't the fans and I still get it.

 

In below video, I am in BF1 and whining stops when I hit windows key to return to desktop and it starts again when i return to battlefield/gta. Keep in mind, fans are at %0 rpm in this video.

I thought maybe Haswell CPU was bottlenecking 1070 so I checked GPU usage and it is at %100 usage so it's not that.

 

I need your help as to what's going on with my system. I bought it from Amazon so I'll just return it depending on your suggestions.

 

Thank you!

Try uninstalling and re-installing your GPU drivers. Google "Display Driver Uninstaller", download the tool, select Nvidia and uninstall your GPU drivers (including GeForce Experience) and reinstall them from the EVGA site.

the whining is just coil whine from your gpu. also, did you use DDU before installing the new gpu?

[ARikozuM]

It could be a power delivery issue. Can you run DDU and install an older driver from Nvidia to rule out a driver issue?

Tried DDU three times. It's still stuttering. I will return it to amazon and get a 1080ti, but thank you so much for your answers.

Okay, so I returned 1070 and got a 1080ti ftw3 and still the same, I am getting 60-100 fps in 1080p ultra in bf1 which is ridicilously low for this card.

 

I tried different ram and power supply to rule those out. Both GPU's gave me same performance. I tried DDU many times.

 

The only thing that comes mind is, either an outdated cpu which kind of breaks my heart because its a haswell i7 @3.9 ghz OR my mini itx motherboard.

 

What do you guys think? Oh I also have a 1080p 60hz monitor(yes i know, i will get a 4k monitor soon) but it doesnt explain low fps.
