I am having trouble getting a high frame rate on this new PC. Most other games I've tried give me much better performance, but my benchmark is consistently below the average. My settings are set for maximum graphics quality (Ultra Performance + DLSS Ultra) and the game is running at 1440p resolution. Even though everything looks fine and the CPU is working hard, it seems like the game can't hit a solid frame count. I only see about 150 frames per second in some titles, which feels low for me since my specs are pretty top-tier. The computer gets warm enough to be normal (the GPU runs around 45 degrees Celsius), and my screen is set to 60Hz. I've tried setting V-Sync off and G-Sync off too, but it doesn't help at all. Basically, the game feels stuck or slow in most titles that have been tested before, even though everyone else says they get much higher frame rates.

You have a PSU-Corsair 1000w Corsair that is the brand and wattage, right? What about the model name of the unit? Also, do I need the BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment? The CPU runs at 1440p resolution with ultra performance DLSS, ultra settings. MW2 2022 hits around 150fps or under in most games. Other benchmarks are lower than average. Did you try and tax your platform with other titles? Out of curiosity, where did you source the installer for the game from? Maybe I should add a grain of salt to what I see on YouTube.

I am writing about a CPU cooler named PSU-Corsair 1000w Corsair that I bought from Corsair. The sticker says it can handle up to 1000 watts, but my power supply is actually rated at RM1000x FM 80+G ATX. My motherboard is an Asus tuf gaming x670e and the BIOS was updated a few days ago. I want to know if there are any specific model numbers for this setup that match these specs.

I am testing my rig with games like MW2 2022, which seems to run at around 150 FPS in most titles or lower. Some other benchmarks I saw were much higher, sometimes reaching 200 to 220 FPS. I am not sure why this is the case. Did you try adding a few more games to test if your computer gets faster? Maybe also tell me where you got the game installer from. It would help to know if there are other sources with better results.

I have the same computer parts as everyone else, but for days I was crazy just trying to fix it and figure out what was wrong. Finally, I updated my BIOS from version 0611 to 0805, and now my graphics performance is back with my RTX 4080 because it was actually the motherboard that was broken! I would also like to make sure you uninstall your current graphics drivers manually and install the newest ones. Good luck reading this post trying to solve yours too! If you need more help, just send me a message on Discord!
