Where's my bottleneck?
Where's my bottleneck?
Hey there, I've been working on my PC for a while now. A few months ago things began acting up—random lag in games and even on the Windows itself. I'm using an i9 9900k with 32GB RAM and an RTX 2080 Ti. The main monitor is set to 1440p at 144Hz, plus three other 1080p screens. My PSU is only 750W, and I'm wondering if I need a bigger power supply. The SSD and HDD are working as expected according to the specs.
I haven't performed any overclocking or specified RAM configurations. For reference, typical placements include 8GB per channel across multiple slots, and clock speeds can influence power consumption. Let me know if you need details on specific components!
Likely the situation is similar to the games I mentioned—it mainly features No Man's Sky, CoD Modern Warfare, and Deadside (early access). Vsync keeps it stable at 144, but drops to 80-90 during stutters. CPU temps stay around 60°C, while the GPU reaches about 80°C under heavy load.
It seems the issue might be related to Windows or the SSD speed, not the power rating itself. I believe the problem lies there. Your setup probably isn’t handling 750W well.
Alright, I'll check out what's available in Windows resources. Thanks!
Yes, you can run a diagnostic or performance check to identify any issues with your system settings or software that might be causing slowdowns.
