Heavy drop in my FPS on Warzone
Heavy drop in my FPS on Warzone
I was playing Warzone at 80-90 fps with normal settings. After updating Windows to version 10 (May 2020) and changing the thermal paste on my CPU, my system overheated at 100°C, causing FPS to drop to 1-10. I re-applied the paste and now temperatures are around 60-70°C during play, but FPS still decreases to 1-10. It’s affecting my gameplay significantly. I don’t have any experience with overclocking, but I’ve tried several solutions without success. Now I’m playing on low settings, closed all programs, but the issue persists. Any advice would be appreciated.
I used Artic series 5 thermal paste.
My PC is old and previously ran smoothly. I updated GPU drivers and other software, but the problem remains.
I installed MSI Afterburner with power limits at 120%, auto fan speed set to 100%, and core voltage at 100%. The issue continues.
MSI Afterburner shows: Voltage Limit... GPU usage 90-100%... CPU usage 70-90%.
Here’s my build:
- Graphics card: EVGA 1060 6 GB
- M.2 SSD: 4 GB
- RAM: 2x4 GB DDR3
- Motherboard: Intel i7-4470
- Cooler: Corsair Liquid Cooling 120mm
