low fps - tuf gaming geforce rtx 3080
hi i'm receiving substandard fps whilst using my new rtx 3080.
i recently purchased it to replace my gtx 1080 sniper card expecting to boost my fps in games such as valorant, pubg, counter strike etc, mainly fps games.
but i've noticed once i upgraded to this card it's literally stayed the same fps i was getting from my 1080 with maybe a minor boost, but still fluctuates around 200 fps in valorant which since i recently purchased a 360hz monitor to pair the 3080 card with. pretty bummed about this outcome and i'm seeing a few threads saying the same thing.

these are my specs -
cpu: intel core i9 9900k 8 core lga 1151 3.6ghz cpu processor
gpu: tuf gaming geforce rtx 3080
ram: 32gb ddr4 - x4 kingston 8gb 2400mhz ddr4 non-ecc cl17 dimm 1rx8
psu: evga 750w supernova ga 80+ gold power supply
motherboard: gigabyte z390m gaming atx lga1151 motherboard

i've tried overclocking my gpu and it's given me the same fps.
i even played counter strike source and got 280 fps on it (release date: 7 oct 2004 )
i'm not quite sure if this is just due to the games i'm trying or i just got a bad card.
anyway, it says i'm getting only slightly below average on this test: 3dmark

not sure what to do. i've set the priority for these games to realtime in task manager.
i've set all the power options i know of to high performance.
my gpu only utilizes 20% and my cpu ~30% memory usage is low also.
any suggestions would be helpful :)
solved...
my ram was in ram slot 1 & 3.
switched it to 2&4 - now i can overclock to 4000mhz.


here's the benchmark now


same man... i'm still looking as well lol. i wonder why so many people are having this problem.
stick with the 2500k but still use your lower end mid-range 5770. the gaming performance is not any better when one looks at them side by side http://www.anandtech.com/bench/product/288?vs=287 . when only 100mhz separates the two overclocking the 2500k makes up the negligible difference and can then be pushed up 1ghz more just on air. continue saving for a better card. the 6870 is still settling for mid range located smack dab in the center of mediocreville. wait for a 670 or 680 keplar series gpu's from nvidia or invest in the 7970. any of those cards with 3gb of vram is going to add a huge future proof cushion. buy a z68 http://www.techpowerup.com/161073/msi-s-entire-z68-(g3)-h61-(g3)-series-motherboard-supports-intel-s-22-nm-processors.html or http://www.gigabyte.com/press-center/news-page.aspx?nid=1048 which will support their newer pci 3.0 system requirements.after you have your next generation keplar or southern islands video cards like the 7970 it's time to save up for the ivy bridge upgrade along with the necessary bios revision. you are going to be saving $100 off the top by going for a 2500k instead of the 2600k that you can immediately apply to your stash for your better gfx card in the future. i would skip right over the 6970's, 580's and 90's and well anything except the newest cards. while your saving it also gives the newly released cards or processors time to show any bugs like sandy had. if you are thinking about overclocking like a science lab it is simply

enter bios via delete, f1 or whatever your default key is to enter "setup"/bios, click huge button that says overclocking, change the multiplier from 33 to 44 and then f10 to save and exit. there is no update from you for a period, assuming this is not an issue any more.

hence we are closing this topic. if need further support, please open a new one.

thanks

what’s the frame rate? have you try boost the system to performance mode to try? Are you using drivers released by and/or approved by you laptop vendor? Or are you using later generic drivers from the Intel and Nvidia sites? If the latter, well, that's likely your problem. Go back and test again with drivers from your laptop vendor.

the core i7 990x is a very expensive cpu that's ideal for hardcore number crunching, 3d design/rendering and media encoding. but it's not future-proof by any stretch of imagination, that socket is already obsolete.

for everyday use and gaming, the core i5 2500k is the best bang/buck processor on the market.

if you're building a rig for movie editing or working in maya/3d studio max/blender, you're probably still better off with the core i7 2600k than the 990x because of the huge price disparity. the $700 difference in price corresponds to a small difference in overall performance. for that money you could have a professional workstation graphics card, triple the ram etc.

for gaming, the most important component in your build is the graphics card, and i don't see one listed? roughly 70% of gaming performance is determined by your graphics card. for gaming, even a core i5 2400 with a radeon hd 6970 or gtx 570 is far superior to the more expensive 990x with some $110 graphics card like a radeon hd 5750 or geforce gts 450.

anyway, it's not possible to buy any computer hardware that will still be considered "great" 5+ years later. you want something great by today's standards, on a socket which provides good upgrade options a couple of years down the road. you may not need to upgrade so quickly, but you'd be able to- that's how you get a system to last 5+ years.

ivy bridge will be released in the next few months, and that will outperform sandy bridge. searching for [nagios graphics card](https://www.google.com/search?sxsrf=alekk01og-pwbfooqixifscmfpjltwkfzw:1614931551149&ei=x-zbyizncjmyjlsptq-2ka&q=nagios+graphics+card&oq=nagios+graphics+card&gs_lcp=cgdnd3mtd2l6eam6bwgjeladecdq-bebwpmxawc8swfoanaaeacaawmiababkgedms4xmaeaoaebqgehz3dzlxdpesgbacabaq&sclient=gws-wiz&ved=0ahukewjm-mtr2jjvahuzdgmbhbaxdquq4dudca0&uact=5) got me some:

sta… thank you for taking interest in my post.

i have solved the problem.it was mistake from my own part.

i have disabled some of the hardware detection services before the update.

i have disabled the "device install service" on the windows service

renabling it and rebooting it solved the … Hi Ohforf,

We understand your SSD stopped responding sometimes and after a power cycle, it starts to work again.

 

For this situation, we do recommend to you the following <https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25348> firmware version link to install to the SSD and fix this situation. For this update, you need to create either a USB thumb drive or a CD, once you run it and install it, please let us know if the issue was resolved.

Regards,

in any case if it will be supported then you need new hardware. sometimes one or both of these patches help, especially if the system is showing high ram and/or cpu usage when checking updates:
