Hey everybody.
This is driving me crazy. I got a msi gtx980 4gb twin frozr and it doesnt perform like it should. I'm getting constant framedrops and the gpu usage is spiking like crazy. I don't know if it's something in my ri g thats bottlenecking the card. Let me give you my specs.
Z87-g45 motherboard
16gb corsair vengeance ram 2400mhz
Samsung 250gb ssd
1 tb black caviar hdd
i7 4771 (is this any good for the card ?)
Corsair h75 Cooling
144hz 27inch benq
Please tell me my system isn't the problem?
Im New at this pc gaming and i don't know what to do. You guys know more then me about this stuff so Please help me out.

Thnks

Steve

If you havent installed the drivers I would suggest that. what games are you playing that you are noticing the frame dropping and sluggish performance? Also, is your GPU constantly at 100% usage even when not playing a game?

Have you made sure the PCIe lane isnt set to a slower speed in BIOS?
