I recently bought an EVGA GTX 980 SC for gaming at 144hz and something seems to be wrong. In GTA V and Battlefield 4 my GPU utilization is sitting at between 50%-70% and my FPS is around 60 in GTA V and 90-100 in Battlefield 4. All of my drivers are up to date as I just installed the card into my computer.
Resetting my CPU to the factory clock speed doesn't effect FPS in games either. I know that I'm not hitting any thermal limits because my CPU is in the mid 60 under full load and my GPU is about the same.
In benchmarks like 3dmark firestrike it runs at around 95%-100% but in others like Valley Benchmark it at around 60%.
What could be happening?
Specs:
CPU: AMD FX 8320 @ 4.4
GPU: EVGA GTX 980 SC
Ram: Kingston HyperX fury 16gb @ 1866
MoBo: Asus M5A99FX Pro R2.0
PSU: Corsair TX750M
