Bottleneck detected in e5-2667v2.
Hello, I own a machine with two E5-2667 v2 watercooled CPUs, clocked at 3.7 GHz. It runs on a Supermicro X9DRI-F board, has 128 GB of 1866 MHz ECC RAM and a Radeon VII graphics card. In games such as Rainbow Six Siege, I achieve about 150 FPS with maximum settings at 1080p, while other tests suggest I should be hitting over 250 FPS. During Division 2, I’m around 60 FPS at max settings at 1080p (targeting 110-120). In Ghost Recon Breakpoint, I’m getting about 60 FPS with maximum settings at 1080p, aiming for roughly 110 FPS. I initially thought the performance gap was due to a bottleneck, but after watching that video (link provided), it seems the E5-2667v2 might be performing better than the E5-2689 used in the clip. Could there be a GPU issue? Thanks! Also, here’s a comparison of the two CPUs.
60 fps could indicate v-sync on a 60 Hz display. Verify if it's turned off. Observe GPU and CPU utilization (per core) during gameplay to identify any performance issues.
I have a 240 hertz monitor and it’s frustrating to see these games not running at 240 FPS. I plan to check GPU and CPU usage per core. What indicators would point to a CPU bottleneck? Thanks!
Indicates a performance issue when the GPU isn't fully utilized alongside a heavily loaded CPU. Helps identify bottlenecks by monitoring resource usage during games.
It could be, but a flaw that merely reduces efficiency appears improbable, except for cooling. How were the temperatures and clock speed recorded during the test? Was the device submerged in water or air-cooled? If it lacks sufficient ventilation or the cooler isn't secured correctly, thermal throttling could occur. There might be insufficient airflow, especially if the CPU is underwater. You could also check GPU-Z to identify any unusual behavior.
The situation offers a clear thermaltake perspective 71. While I’m willing to consider cooling concerns, I struggle to accept that it’s affecting my performance by half. The dual e5-2667v2 units are water cooled with a 360° 60mm radiator, and they’re set up in push-pull mode. I haven’t overclocked the Radeon Viio. I’m using NZXT Cam to monitor temperatures and clock speeds, and there are thermal sensors inside the case linked to my Commander Pro. However, the iCUE app doesn’t display any data.
Afterburner must also display GPU temperatures (viewable during games just like FPS and usage stats). When the GPU throttles, you should notice elevated temperatures there. As mentioned earlier, GPU-Z can help verify any anomalies.
I spent an hour playing a game on the GPU and it ran smoothly without overheating. The Radeon Vius maintained temperatures between 65-73°C. Another user suggests testing with a single CPU—should I consider that option?
