Hey everyone, tried reinstalling TF2 yesterday and faced some FPS issues on my new machine. Initially, the frame rate hovers around 280 FPS and works well, but after a few minutes it drops to 180 then falls to 100. The CPU stays at a comfortable 60°C while the GPU hovers between 65-70°C. I've adjusted the graphics settings multiple times without success. My PC specs are listed online.

Are you running any background tasks? Review the power configuration in MSI Afterburner.

No background processes running... GPU power settings are fine.

Consult MSI Afterburner, examine the charts to determine if power or clock speeds decrease during FPS issues.

Tried that No significant movement in clockspeed or power when fps drops... Could it be the cpu? surely 60degrees for a 6600K isn't a problem?

Are all the metrics recorded during gameplay? (CPU temperature is acceptable) Review CPU and GPU utilization.

I can help you assess performance under extreme conditions. For worst-case CPU and GPU readings, consider running stress tests or benchmark suites that push hardware limits. For GPUs, a high-frame-rate game like TF2 can provide meaningful insights into real-world usage. Let me know if you'd like guidance on setting up such tests.

I completed the Heaven Unigine test and observed GPU temperatures reaching 71°C while CPU stayed at 63°C after extended use.

Usage stats remain normal for CPU and GPU.
