Low FPS on 3700X + RTX2070?
Low FPS on 3700X + RTX2070?
He has a modern setup with a strong processor and good cooling. Despite that, he’s struggling to maintain consistent frame rates in certain games. His experience shows lower performance than expected even with similar hardware configurations elsewhere. The CPU load stays high, while the GPU usage is low, which seems unusual. It might be related to driver issues, background processes, or even the game settings. I’d suggest checking for updates, running a system diagnostics, and ensuring no background apps are consuming resources. Let me know if you want help troubleshooting further!
Ensure your VSync is disabled, review your settings, attempt to move it to another device if feasible, and retry plugging it in.
The 3700X with a 2070 might be reaching its power ceiling of the PSU. I suggest using a minimum of a 550W quality unit for this setup. It's also wise to verify that all drivers, BIOS, and Windows are current. Running the graphics driver check and reinstalling it via GeForce Experience is another practical approach.
Chipset and GPU drivers are current, I attempted to remove the GPU drivers but it didn’t fix the problem before.
I don’t have access to the PC at the moment. I’ll take screenshots once I’m connected in about 2-3 hours.
Sorry, I couldn't capture screenshots. The GPU is running at 65-70% usage with a temperature of 63°C, while the CPU is at 25-30% utilization at 60°C.
