2080ti problems?

Zeebedy · 14 Dec 2018 at 19:07

Hey guys..

Just finished installing BF5 on a new wiped and fresh install of Windows 10.

I have the game set on 1440p @ High settings. And tbh im not impressed with the results..

im averaging around 90-100 FPS on 64 man conquest..and the stutter, lag and frame drops is bad, real bad!

also my 1800X peaked at a reasonable 69. But the GPU throttled at its max of 84c. Now granted its cooking in my house atm, but still..

So I think a custom fan curve is needed for the gpu..and im dreading to say it, but would a G-Sync monitor help with the issues of the FPS??

If anyone can give me some info that would be great.

RTX on?

Thanks for the reply mate.

Im looking at the settings in Ge-force experience..is it "DXR Raytrace Reflection Quality"? as its currently on Ultra??

I have 2 rigs with RTX. The one with the RTX 2080 kept stuttering lots. I applied the geforce experience profile with the RTX on and now its smooth ! I also used DDU and installed new drivers fresh.

did you use the slider, for example changed from quality to performance??

Azrael1 · 14 Dec 2018 at 21:08

Looking at it now. No I didn't mess with the slider. Its on optimal. its 2 notches from quality.

For multiplayer I prefer the game not to stutter when I am aiming a shot so not tinkered with it.

Quick update guys..Something is amiss.

Played a few games of CS GO there, and every so often the game would freeze for about half-to one second then resume..WTF!

I have put a custom fan curve on the card..CPU maxed at 52c - and the GPU at 43c!

Think I might be needing a G-SYNC monitor for these drops?? if so I will not be happy as i just dropped a lot on this monitor I have atm! :mad:

Gsync will not get rid of these stutters. Did you try a different GPU with this system? Because it sounds like throttling, either of the GPU or the CPU. Try monitoring frequency in the OSD with a program like MSI Afterburner.

Can it still be throttling if the CPU and GPU temps are way way low? its hardly putting a strain on them this game, but i did come across this, which I will try tomorrow

Also I have it installed on a standard 2tb HD, mabye shifting to my boot SSD (as its only like 8-9gb) might help things along??

Zeebedy · 16 Dec 2018 at 16:27

Put a 1TB SSD in for games, and used the settings from that webpage guide. And so far CS running well!

Just to be sure, have you set windows 10 system to "performance" and not "balanced"? I have heard that these settings can cause performance loss in some games.

I have it set on "balanced" but doesn't the clock speed remain at full on the CPU if on "performance"??

Zeebedy · 16 Dec 2018 at 21:31

Back again guys! :mad:

Just installed Far Cry 5 to test out my GPU!..two things..

1. My FPS is only around the 80-90 in game, and stutters when they drop even as little as 5-7fps at a time!
2. Checked AfterBurner and my maxed out :

GPU temp : 64c
GPU usage :68%
CPU temp : 59c

IS my 1800X holding things back here? And im now realy tempted to get a G-Sync monitor! Can someone confirm the "little" stutters will be ironed out with G-Sync??

Zeebedy · 16 Dec 2018 at 21:55

Or do I sell the 2080ti and get a VEGA 64, keeping my ROG monitor??

I'm not sure how it works, but it certainly won't affect your clockspeeds and if on balanced it won't hurt to put it to performance. Also, if you're overclocking anything, return it all to stock in the mobo bios (just select default) save and exit then re-run the games. The framerate will more than likely be lower, but it should be smoother, if its still stuttering/hitching, then its more than likely software orientated. Try that and see how you get on.

Edit: Don't start thinking of selling anything until you know for sure what to sell, ie, the cause of the stutter

Distracted · 16 Dec 2018 at 22:23

I remember Shroud complaining about stutters with amd ages ago when ryzen came out.

It is also something people mention when i talk about upgrading to ryzen.

I honestly don't know whether the cpu is to blame, but I hear it enough to not rule it out with 1st gen ryzen at least.

However, i have never seen or tested this myself. I don't know why it would affect Ryzen in particular or if people are just parroting things they've heard, but it is frequently mentioned.

Just take a step back and work through it, throwing money at it won't fix it.

Can we get full system specs. Especially ram quantity and speed including timings. You can get this info from cpu-z or your bios.

What make and model is your power supply too?

Do you have something like MSI afterburner installed? It will give you a graph over time so you can use it to help narrow down what is happening when these large stutters occur

Solid advice.

Try setting it to OFF. And do let us know the rest of your system specs.

If it is genuinely the CPU, then try turning vsync on at 60fps. See if the stutters stop.

CPU frame pacing issues shouldn't cause it to drop to 5-7fps though.

What RAM are you using?

I've seen Ryzen bottleneck at very high FPS (have owned 1600X/1700/1700X/2600X), but never seen it cause stutters.
