Performance drops significantly and there are occasional stutters.
It's unlikely to be the main issue; the PSU appears to be the lower-end component in the setup. As noted: https://cultists.network/140/psu-tier-list/
PSU might lead to a drop in voltage? I only ran NVIDIA monitoring tools, not any other systems, and I haven’t seen power usage dropping when the sutters were active.
I wrote it to highlight something, though I'm not confirming it's the main reason. A good option is near $100. Check out the links provided for Corsair RMB750x or RMBR750E models.
What does "normal fps" mean in a game? And are you sure your frame rate is enabled? If not, let me know your desired target.
I refer to FPS and around 99% in NVIDIA Overlay, essentially I have something similar for most games. It's not about reducing the frame rate significantly; I've tested at 60 or 144 FPS without much improvement. The issue isn't just limiting FPS, it seems lag or stutter is the main problem.
It seems the power supply is quite basic, and I'm not sure if it's linked to stuttering. Could the BIOS be involved?
It seems the newest BIOS version and a default reset might not be the problem here. My concerns would focus on the power supply or motherboard. It might be simpler and more cost-effective to replace the PSU before addressing the motherboard.
Detailed specifications available? How many RAM modules are included? What drivers are the most recent? What temperature readings do they provide? To verify if it's the PSU, use this method. If you have tools like MSI Afterburner, you can adjust or undervolt the GPU. Try running at a very low power limit (default is 100%), for example:
times are fine, I believe. In RDR2 temperatures stayed below 70°C, and CPU usage was similar—around 60-85%. For cores, they were roughly 60-85 during gameplay, though Helldrivers 2 had multiple cores hitting 100°C (bad cooler). It sometimes used up to 60-70% of the CPU, causing some lag. I use XMP settings with 2x16GB RAM. The GPU has the latest drivers. Just asking—what if the PSU isn't enough?
