hello, you recently purchased a 3070 founders addition on ebay for christmas. it worked well for a while, but now the fps drops to around 5fps every few minutes. this shouldn’t happen with arkham city or stardew valley, and your temperatures look normal. your drivers are up to date.

pc specs: 3070 fe ryzen 7 5800x, 32gb ram, 3200mhz, 750w, 80+ bronze power supply, b450 auros elite v2, samsung 970 evo ssd.

what could be causing this? it might be related to the bios or a driver issue. have you tried reinstalling the graphics drivers or checking for updates?

I would start by clean uninstalling your GPU drivers and reinstalling. First thing to do is download DIsplay Driver Uninstaller . Extract the files from this download, then boot your PC into safe mode. Once you're in the program, select GPU from the drop-down meanu on the right, then choose clean and restart. Let it do its thing, it will automatically restart your PC and bring you back into Windows normally. From here, we'll need to download new drivers. Go to NVidia's website , download the drivers and reinstall them. This was a very breif explanation, this is a decent video that explains the whole process of using Display Driver Uninstaller.

Are there two or four GPUs? Which one were you using before, and did you run DDU prior to installing the new one?

I own four sticks of the basic corsair vengeance ram. I had a 2070 super, which isn’t the most up-to-date upgrade schedule, and I didn’t remove my display drivers. I did a manual driver update that removed all previous ones, possibly because it was recommended before. Not very experienced with this process, but I’m open to trying ddu next.

yeah use DDU in safe mode, then reinstall your drivers, also newest chipset drivers. if the issue is still there, remove two of the ram sticks and see if that helps, i would also disable XMP for the time being. thing is ryzen hates 4 sticks, it worked for your previous build, but now something obviously doesn't work, so thats one of the likely culprits, besides not using DDU after installing a new GPU (its not mandatory obviously, but highly recommended to to avoid any issues) ps: also if you remove 2 sticks make sure the remaining are in dual channel, refer to motherboard manual for that.

It's conceivable the second monitor is the issue, leading to GPU synchronization problems. This isn't confirmed, but you might test gaming without it connected to see if it resolves the issue.

Having two identical monitors isn't always a sure thing.
