it called get better

#

just jokes

#

anyways

#

are you using Resizeable Bar?

#

because that can decrease performance

#

in some games

sterile mulch
#

what is that?

#

no it's not activated

#

@tropic dragon

tropic dragon
#

have you check ur bios?

#

maybe ur card needs to be replaced

#

Check your GPU usage % and clock speeds.

#

The 3080 is a lot of video card.

#

After all, it was originally intended for 4K gaming. Makes sense 1440p and 1080p are going to be no sweat.

#

BO3 is on the old side. You may be running into CPU limits.

#

See if GPU usage goes up when you play at a higher resolution (either with render scaling or DLDSR)

#

Also, check if your RAM is running at the correct speed. I've troubleshooted a 2133 speed yesterday

#

Download 3DMark and run the Time Spy benchmark to verify that your GPU is performing to spec.

i can't find it, can you send me the link please?

PC gaming is a quest for performance, a never-ending cycle of upgrading, overclocking, and tweaking your system for faster frame rates, higher resolutions, and better quality visual effects.3DMark is essential equipment for this quest. For more than 20 years, 3DMark has been the first choice for benchmarking, testing, and comparing PC performanc...

#

i thought it was like downloading a demo of a game XD

heady slate
#

not all games are like that either

#

sometimes the demo is in the full game's page

sterile mulch
#

ok i'll do it and send the results

#

gimme a few a secs

heady slate
#

this will take several minutes (free versions have an unskippable demo)

sterile mulch
#

@heady slate

heady slate
#

There doesn't seem to be problems. (3DMark stats are influenced by the CPU and any overclocking.)

#

Do you have other games you can check?

sterile mulch
#

i do

#

wait

#

Call of duty MW2 (warzone) 79 fps

heady slate
#

Is GPU usage at least 90% and the clock speed the GPU's rated base speed or higher?

forest jay
#

Are you running Vsync On and/or using a frame cap?

#

Might be worth disabling Vsync in Nvidia control panel globally to check

heady slate
#

It happens. Some games cap out for other reasons.

#

You don't have any problems judging from 3DMark stats

sterile mulch
#

i mean, it seems kinda strange tho

#

in some games it performs bad

prisma storm
#

Not all games run fine, not because your GPU but because their code ain't polished

#

Which is the case in most new games

#

For instance PUBG

sterile mulch
#

it seems kinda strange tho that BO3 a game of like 10 years ago, can't manage to do 140 fps in 2k

prisma storm
#

If the benchmark you did has no issues with the final score there ain't much to do

#

It's running as expected now, your CPU on the other hand could be the limiting factor as well

sterile mulch
#

another example that i can do

#

valorant doesn't reach 300fps

prisma storm
#

You could watch a yt video with same specifications as yours and compare

sterile mulch
#

in 2k stretched (2440x1920)

prisma storm
#

Valorant is CPU dependant

sterile mulch
prisma storm
#

CSGO is cpu dependant as well

#

Valorant has some issues from few months back in terms of performance, any forum you get on is the users complain about performance issues

#

They say it's an update to their anti cheat a while back

sterile mulch
#

their anticheat sucks (PERSONAL OPINION)

#

kernel based bruh

prisma storm
#

If the benchmarks show no issues with GPU score, especially pushed to the max I'd say everything is fine

#

Yeah

sterile mulch
#
  • i have a question
prisma storm
#

I mean there's nothing to be fixed, if the scores were lower than expected then yeah but in your case it's fine

sterile mulch
#

i got this 3080 from LDLC for 950€, tho if it's having some problems, i want ask for a warranty... the thing is, LDLC doesn't sell anymore this GPU, so... how does the warranty work?

#

if you guys know it

#

cuz if i get a refund, i can get a 4070ti maybe

prisma storm
#

That I'm not sure but I am 100% sure there's nothing wrong with the card

sterile mulch
prisma storm
#

They won't do the warranty 100%, they'll test the card before doing anything

#

You tried comparing your specs to someone on YouTube? The games you play

sterile mulch
#

wait

#

i had a problem long ago, that made my whole pc crash while i was playing god of war or cyberpunk

#

or any other heavy game

#

basically my monitors become black with alternate colors, all my USB ports they get disconnected and then reconnected, and after the PC crashes

#

so i thought IT WAS the GPU

#

i have some pictures of it

prisma storm
#

I can't give you an answer to that, could be anything, really

#

You have any story mode games? If so tell me what games and imma vheck performance on youtube then compare them to yours

#

God of war for instance

#

Or cyberpunk, even better as it has benchmark mode

#

Or some other game that has benchmark mode, cyberpunk is good but we need recent video as the game had the major code rehaul

sterile mulch
#

i don't have any game that has a benchmark mode on it i think

prisma storm
#

Cyberpunk?

sterile mulch
#

i need to reinstall it XD

prisma storm
#

Oh

sterile mulch
#

wait i have god of war, but i don''t think it has benchmark mode

prisma storm
#

Problem with doing it by walking around is that, you'll have to do the same scene as in yt video and that stuff

#

Benchmark would be the best if possible

sterile mulch
#

WAIT

#

i can install ghostwire tokyo

prisma storm
#

Wait, let me see if there's any benchmarks online with that game

#

Your monitor is 2560*1440?

sterile mulch
#

i have two monitors.

My main is 2560x1440 144hz
my 2nd is 1920x1080 scaled to 2560x1440 120hz

prisma storm
#

Ok

#

Disconnect the second monitor when you do the testing, just during the testing. You can open msi afterburner performance overlay and record some gameplay, freeroam. Performance overlay keep FPS active the rest no need

#

Or you could tell me average FPS you do when playing

sterile mulch
#

i never managed to make afterburner overlay to work

#

idk why

prisma storm
#

You need rtss rivatuner statistic server

sterile mulch
#

give me a second i'll reinstall it

prisma storm
#

The app that comes with afterburner, you have option to install it

sterile mulch
#

ye ye i saw it

#

i'm doin it rn

#

ok i installed it, now?

prisma storm
#

Also you need to go in msi afterburner settings and find overlay settings

#

There you'll have to tick the stuff you want to be shown

sterile mulch
#

wait, can you hop in a vc atm? so you can tell me what to do? if it's okey for you obv

prisma storm
#

I'm on my phone right now, I'll get some pics from the internet

#

That tab, so you see that tick icon next to GPU usage and rest the stuff below

#

That means it'll show, the stuff you tick

#

And the thing in red circle should not be grayed out

#

Send a shot after you set it up

sterile mulch
#

like this?

prisma storm
#

Make sure frame rate is ticked, it'll show in OSD next to it if it's enabled

#

That looks fine in photo, everything that says in OSD will be displayed

sterile mulch
#

framerate speed(?)

prisma storm
#

Just framerate

sterile mulch
#

here i have

prisma storm
#

Go up, it should be somewhere

#

Try to find frametime, it'll be next to it

#

What is periodo? It might be that but in another language?

sterile mulch
#

k i did it

prisma storm
#

Ok

#

Is tokyo game always night time and wet?

sterile mulch
sterile mulch
#

wait, how can i show the stats on screen(?)

prisma storm
#

Ok, do some gaming, it doesn't have to be long. Walk, shoot and that kind of stuff and make sure to record the settings as well

#

I don't remember but I believe MSI overlay will always show

sterile mulch
#

i'm still installing it, i try to open GoW in the meanwhile

prisma storm
#

Ok

sterile mulch
#

k it's showing now

#

there are my settings

#

it's doin 110/120

prisma storm
#

Ok, do some walking, some shooting and post a video or tell me the FPS

#

Then set settings to HIGH and do the same

sterile mulch
#

GPU TEMP is at 78 C°

prisma storm
#

It's fine, game more so we can see if it raises more

#

You'll need to play at least 15 minutes

#

And what does Alto mean?

sterile mulch
#

alto is "high"

prisma storm
#

Ok

sterile mulch
#

82°

prisma storm
#

Ok, still good

#

You have gpu z?

sterile mulch
#

i do

prisma storm
#

If yes, you can keep it active in background so I can take a look at vrel reading

#

PerfCap reading*

#

also what's GPU usage when you were gaming and gpu power usage?

sterile mulch
#

72% GPU

#

30 max the CPU

prisma storm
#

You'll need to tick CPU usage in mai afterburner to check it

#

Even better would be the usage by core

#

So we get the real reading

#

Power usage? GPU Wattage

sterile mulch
#

there are like a few different ones

#

cpu 1 2 3 4 5 etc

prisma storm
#

Yes, that, all of its cores

sterile mulch
#

do i need to select them all?

prisma storm
#

Yes

sterile mulch
#

340watts for the GPU

prisma storm
#

Ok

sterile mulch
#

75watts the cpu

prisma storm
#

GPU is running at max power then, send a shot from GPU Z but it has no issue with throttling as it uses 340 watts (maximun)

sterile mulch
#

it goes over sometimes

#

like it reaches 370

#

380

prisma storm
#

Ok

#

Send a GPU Z shot after some game time

sterile mulch

You may want to expand the window. (Use the top or bottom borders to resize.)

#

I want to check why PerfCap Reason is purple

#

Do that, run the game again, and as soon as you tab out to GPU-Z, use your mouse cursor to move it to the purple part in PerfCap Reason, then screenshot

prisma storm
#

@heady slate purple is thermal limit

heady slate
#

sounds suspicious

#

now just to get the window to be bigger then we'll know if it's too hot or thermal limits set too low

#

I expect it to be too hot, but the fact is it can be set to 65C... and afterburner default settings link temp and power limit sliders together, so if you only tried to set power to lowest without doing anything else... you get 65C

prisma storm
#

That's true

sterile mulch
#

sooo what should i do?

heady slate
#

expand the GPU-Z's window (use your mouse to drag the window borders at the top or bottom)

make sure you can see both GPU Temperature, Hot Spot, and PerfCap Reason in the same window without scrolling

with GPU-Z still open, play a game

once you lag again immediately tab to GPU-Z and screenshot it for us

sterile mulch
#

another question

#

i have this "bug"

#

where, whenever i update my GPU Drivers

#

all the games start in 4k

#

and the window glitches out with the other monitor, so i can't do anything... what can i do?

prisma storm
#

That depends, not an expert especially on multi monitor setups

#

But try not to use upscaling on second monitor and check if it happens
