OC will help a bit but would be more combined with getting ram at its full speed!
does XMP default to 2933 or around that value ? if so leave it at that and don't worry about getting it bang on 3000mhz

yeah, thats the XMP at 2933mhz, but i cant get it too boot when that setting is applied? will BIOS updates might help with that ??

YES! bios update will help a lot! check what number your on and

latest one is F7 and contains all the coding from AMD to improve Ram support and timings!!!!!!!

im on the HD3 Gigabyte mobo, lastest is F3 which I have downloaded, will try the XMP again i think, hopefully will work? Just scared as it failed to boot before and so crapping it a little..

Is sharing disabled in nvidia experience? What about windows gaming mode? Have you removed references in device manager (view, hidden item) and removed the ghost 1070?

Download GPU-z. Is your 1080ti running at pci-e 3.0?

sharing is enabled, should that be enabled or disabled?

Try it with it disabled.

Strange, I just fired up CS GO and my CPU and GPU were like 20% utilisation and was getting 170-180 fps, so not that high..

But am I correct in saying that if the CPU and GPU are not maxed out there is no bottle-necking going on then? Would it be settings more than anything?

TheRealDeal · 20 Jul 2017 at 17:24

An ideal situation is low cpu usage but 100% gpu usage. You want your Gpu maxed out where possible as it means it working to it's full potential. It's the opposite with cpu usage as getting near to 100% means you are probably bottle necking your Gpu.

Zeebedy · 20 Jul 2017 at 17:33

Since changing my RAM speed, my CPU usage is higher for the clock settings and wont go below 39c and before it would idle 34c-35c..

orbitalwalsh · 20 Jul 2017 at 19:12

Wouldn't worry to much about idle speeds, many when underload unless you were hitting a really higher number would show cooling isn't quite right .
Your using stock cooler as well I believe ?

Hey orbital, ahh OK, so high 30's ok for Celsius?

Yes, im using the stock Spire cooler, love its looks tbh..

Just started up a game of BF1 AGAIN!! And when I joined a game, i was in the 60's FPS and the CPU load was like 30 odd % and the GPU was at 9% and the fan came on big style? is there a problem with my GPU??

Zeebedy · 20 Jul 2017 at 19:30

I think that since I have setup "GeForce Experience" it has changed the settings and bumped everything up to max, hence the lower FPS and the 99% GPU usage??

You surely didn't allow GeForce Experience to optimize your games?

30s is fine but key thing is to remember your room temp. If you idle was 50c but your room is a desert at 35c that's fine, but if your -10 ice house and it's still 50 then yeah.. issues

It's surprising how many people don't take this into account tbh. Have seen a lot of people worry over temps compared to what they've had in the past forgetting that the ambient temp is + 20 deg or so in the summer.

The next fun thing to look if you've got this sorted is to see how your machine is doing for DPC latency.

Hey guys,

I just installed BF1 and went and played some multiplayer, but my FPS readings are poor, real poor..

Im averaging around 100FPS at 1080p, dipping to the 80's FPS when a lot going on and when not topping around 125-130 FPS..

This is at medium detail settings, WTF?

Can someone please advise me on settings or updates etc to try and rectify this?

My 1070 at high details were getting more than this, so im stumped to what the issue could be?

At 1080p the CPU is the bottleneck not the GPU. I think you've wasted your money.

turn it up to ultra and res scale 150+ it will look amazing

Zeebedy · 21 Jul 2017 at 12:34

Although I have spent a lot of money on this card, surely it will be relatively future proofed? Also if I decide to change to a 1440 / 4K monitor then I wont have any other hardware to change?
