with Battlefield 1 I normally get above 90fps, but with Far Cry 5, Ghost Recon Wildlands and Assassin's Creed Origins between 35-45fps. what the hell is wrong?!!!!! With such a good GPU and monitor, what could the issue be? And please, don't tell me to lower my video settings, otherwise all this money would've been a complete waste. Thanks for all further input and advice!!!!

something is blocking the power of cpu or gpu. try setting high performance profile for both cpu and gpu. turn off all cpu c states and eist from bios(in enable state these can lower cpu voltage and clock to save power). also set pre render frame to 1 from nvidia control panel, you can set 2 if lower value doesnt give you advantage. i think this will surely solve the problem. and you are playing @1080p?

It's a 1440p ultrawide. Pretty heavy stuff.

Monitor your temps and usage stats closely (msi afterburner's overlay can do this) to see where the problem is.

alright everyone, so I ended up uninstalling my Nvidia drivers and instead installed the 388.00 version. That completely fixed the low FPS. Now when I play Far Cry 5, Assassin's Creed: Origins and Ghost Recon Wildlands I get between 60-85 FPS!!!!!!! As for the stuttering, it is not as intermittent as it was before, I mean, I still have it, it just happens randomly every couple of minutes, which is fine I guess. Thanks everyone again!!

now I disabled prefetch and superfetch= no stuttering at all!!!!!!!
