Underperforming 1070?

[Jules A]

Hi, I've been getting lower fps than expected in some games while looking at benchmarks like battlefield 1, CSGO, PUBG.

Not sure if its my GPU underperforming or my pc is bottlenecking. if my cpu is bottlenecking my gpu, can i overclock it with the b150m mobo?

EDIT: It's mainly used for 1080p gaming @144hz

Check usage, temps and clock speed to determine bottleneck.

 

No, you arent overclocking with this mobo.

Any specific software i can use to check?

We learned the other day that unless you have a 1080ti, xp, or titan a bottleneck is not likely. Did you recently add the 1070? I'd start with fresh drivers.

DDU & Reinstall.

If you don't know what this is, DDU stands for Display Driver Uninstaller, and is the ubiquitous way to uninstall GPU drivers. Most GPU problems are fixed with an uninstall and reinstall of their respective drivers.

You can download DDU here: https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html , and I’d recommend using the “Clean and Restart” option.

Once this is done, you can download new drivers by clicking on the links below, and selecting your hardware.

Sorry if this is too much detail. This is a macro on my keyboard and I’m trying to appeal to the lowest common denominator

I would recomend HWMonitor, from CPUID: https://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html

And/or MSI Afterburner: https://www.msi.com/page/afterburner

I did a reset a few weeks back

Is this just for gpu drivers?

I did DDU and reinstall and that helped a bit not fully
