Optimize for your CPU by disabling Spectre and Meltdown features with InSpectre. Employ CPUBalance to assist in scheduling tasks. Ensure you run at 1440p, not 1080p; on 1080p the older 6-core processor would cause excessive bottlenecking, forcing the GPU into lower power mode and resulting in performance similar to a 1070 with frequent stutters during power adjustments.
Did you execute DDU to completely eliminate the previous drivers? It’s typically okay when using the same vendor hardware, but may cause problems if there’s a significant change in driver versions.
Certainly! Could you give more details about inspectre? I'm trying to understand its functionality and usage better. Regarding your second point, I don’t have a 1440p display, which makes it harder for me to assess the experience.
It depends on your specific situation. Both NVIDIA cards are being updated via GeForce Experience, but manual installation might still be beneficial if you encounter issues or prefer full control.
Force the GPU to operate in the highest power state. Ensure your CPU isn't running below 100%. Your system uses an 8th generation processor with PCIe 3.0, not PCIe 4.0. This could limit performance. Disable all power-saving settings in the BIOS and enable maximum clock speeds.
I haven't dealt with it myself, but it might be worth trying if you're facing performance problems.
