According to ASUS GPU Tweak II my CPU and GPU usage is as above. While playing GTA 5 at any settings the FPS is always at 60-80 fps at any settings( Very High/ Normal). Almost 5-7 fps difference at higher settings. My temps are normal everytime without any OC.

Here’s a revised version of the text, aiming for clarity and flow:
“To ensure optimal performance, it's recommended to install RAM kits designed for dual-channel operation. In this case, you've purchased a 2 x 8GB matched kit – crucial for maximizing speed. Before installing, thoroughly test each stick individually using Memtest86+, running full passes to identify any potential issues.
Once installed in the designated slots (refer to your motherboard’s manual for optimal placement), boot into a diagnostic environment. A common method is to create a bootable USB drive with Memtest86+ and run a complete pass without errors. This validates that each stick is functioning correctly.
Next, test the RAM sticks simultaneously using both memory channels (A1/B1 and A2/B2). Continue running Memtest86+ for an extended period.
If the tests are clear, your RAM is likely good. However, if you encounter errors, the issue may stem from several areas: a bent CPU socket pin, a problem with the motherboard’s memory controller, or potentially issues within the B-channels. Further troubleshooting might involve swapping components or seeking professional assistance.”
Here’s a rewritten version of the text, aiming for clarity and flow:
“To ensure optimal performance, let's address several key areas. First, please update your graphics card drivers using DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) to completely remove any existing software, followed by installing the latest drivers from Nvidia’s support website. This will resolve potential conflicts.
Next, verify that your motherboard has the latest BIOS updates available – these often contain critical performance improvements and stability fixes. Specifically, let's check for BIOS updates related to your chipset and processor.
Regarding your cooling setup, while an AIO cooler is a valid choice, it’s important to note that limiting overclocking on this platform may limit its full potential. Finally, could you please confirm the specifications of your previous graphics card? This will help us ensure compatibility moving forward.”
Here’s a rewritten version of the text, aiming for clarity and flow while preserving the original meaning:
“I’m troubleshooting performance issues I've experienced in [Game Name], specifically when using high graphical settings like Max RTX Settings and Ultra. My goal is to improve my frame rates.
Currently, my system specs are as follows: a 750W Bronze Rated PSU, a B150m motherboard (running with the latest BIOS), and a previous GTX 960 4GB GPU. I’ve already taken steps to optimize my graphics drivers by using Safe Mode DDU for a clean reinstall of GeForce drivers.
I initially encountered frame rate dips in *Squad* when utilizing maximum RTX settings, experiencing stable 60-70 fps with occasional drops to 45fps during intense combat scenarios. My previous GPU, a GTX 960, struggled with these high settings. I’m considering overclocking the CPU and motherboard for additional performance, but I want to ensure it's done correctly. I’ve already tried updating the BIOS on my motherboard.”
The world of computing is increasingly multi-threaded, but many applications remain single-threaded, presenting a bottleneck on processors with multiple cores. Understanding threading efficiency can help optimize performance. Games, in particular, often exhibit this limitation.
A key indicator of threading potential lies in how effectively a program utilizes available processor threads. A single-threaded application will saturate a quad-core processor, appearing to consume 25% of each core’s capacity, leading to the mistaken belief that the bottleneck is elsewhere. However, most games only benefit from utilizing 2-3 threads effectively.
Determining a game's threading capabilities involves assessing its sensitivity to multiple threads. One method is to disable individual processor threads through Windows' Advanced Startup Options (msconfig). Rebooting after setting the number of processors to less than the total core count reveals how sensitive the application is to utilizing multiple threads. If changes yield minimal performance improvements, increasing clock speed might be a more effective optimization strategy than pursuing further threading enhancements.
That’s a great question! Your processor is powerful, but running games efficiently often benefits from limiting the number of cores used.
Here’s why:
* **Game Optimization:** Many games aren't fully optimized to utilize all available processor cores simultaneously. Running multiple cores can actually *decrease* performance due to overhead and context switching.
* **Stability:** In some cases, utilizing all cores can cause instability or crashes in older games or with certain settings.
That is not doing you any favors. You should run your ram in matched pairs, for dual channel. Some titles are more affected by this, than others.
