Hey everyone,
So i've been having a big issue with this card for a long time now. In almost every game i play (battlefield 3, skyrim, battlefield 4, etc) the fps is very low and gpu usage is all over the place.
When playing battlefield 3, this is the gpu usage:
I have to say, this is while playing on the lowest settings (1080p, although changing the resolution doesn't do much to my fps) and i'm getting on average 50 fps, dropping down to 30 a lot. This is while playing on a 32 man server. My fps should stay at least above 60 at all times with this gpu right?
Temperatures are normal, maximum temperature while playing bf3/bf4 is about ~64C. Power consumption is all over the place too, just like the gpu usage.
Specs:
CPU - i3 2120 (I've been thinking about a possible bottleneck but i read on multiple forums this shouldn't be the case. Also my friend has the same cpu and a 650 ti boost and gets way more fps than me in bf3/bf4.)
GPU - Asus gtx 660 DCUII
RAM: 8gb geil dragon ram
PSU: Corsair builder series cx500w v2
What i've tried:
- Clean windows install, didn't fix anything.
- Games reinstalled.
- Tried literally every driver ever released for this card, every single one of them performs the same.
- Trying a different powersupply from a different pc, still the same problem.
- Putting the GPU in a different pc, still the same problem.
At this point i'm all out of ideas and this is really frustrating. I don't think i can RMA the card seeing how it functions just fine without artifacting w/e, and i doubt the store would give a shit about my fps problems.
Any help or insights could help me alot.
Thanks
