@3900X Owners With a 1080 Ti + Destiny 2

[Dicehunter]

I have a favour to ask of any 3900X owner who also has a 1080 Ti, Doesn't matter which model, That also plays Destiny 2.

I currently have a 2700X in my rig with a 1080 Ti and I'm fairly certain my CPU is majorly holding back my GPU as my GPU usage most of the time is very low at my chosen res of 1080P in this title which is my main game, Average of 50%.

Set the game to 1080P "Highest" preset, Frame rate cap and v-sync off, Then set ambient occlusion to off, Any and all shadow options to either off or their lowest, Motion blur to off and then go to this location in the dreaming city and look at the wall, Chamber of Starlight Lost Sector and then report back your FPS and GPU usage pretty please.

Do it.1440p is the new 1080p.

I'm actually very happy with my 24" 1080P 240Hz Asus monitor, I honestly don't want anything bigger/higher res, The only time I'll be upgrading is when I can get an IPS version of what I have now.

I can test it for you with 3700X and 980ti at 720p lol.

Sure why not

I wouldn’t have thought a 2700X would bottleneck a 1080Ti in D2, have you tried loading Afterburner and turning on the monitoring for CPU/GPU?

According to both GPU-Z and Afterburner, GPU usage average is 47% after 10 minutes and CPU average is 23%.

@Dicehunter Could you show that spot on the map.?

edit: nvm found it...

192fps

Thanks for your efforts, Got into the same position as you, Also selected a res slightly lower than yours as I couldn't get your exact 1600x675 res to work and even going lower in res I'm "only" getting around 140, Even tried lower settings and it's definitely a CPU bottleneck, Time for Ryzen 3000 me thinks.
