So i picked up an EVGA gtx 1080 founders edition and it arrived today. Monitor and other things arrive tomorrow.
in the meantime while i wait for the 4k monitor, i decided to play a few games and benchmark the new card etc.
I tried The Witcher 3 and it was sluggish even on normal. I tried everything ultra(on 1080p) and it was jumping here and there. And Arma 3 was..........arma 3 lol
anyways,
When i installed the card, i removed all drivers and installed the ones from the CD, then saw Gforce Experience with another update and i am now on the latest update.
Then I ran for example Valley unigine benchmark tool (amongst others like 3dmark etc) and looked at the scores/results for Valley here: https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/unigine-valley-benchmark-scores.183712/
I ran the test and my scores are LOW. SUper low.
im talking 1900s score, around there. I see people on the scores list with numbers way higher than mine and they are on single 7 series.
I guess my question is, what am i doing wrong?
PS: Im not a numbers whore but seeing as how witcher 3 and arma showed no improvement, something is
wrong.
Here is my setup:
1080p TV
Asus maximus hero vii
H110 ccooling
4 huge mm fans(top / front /side/ back)
240gb kingston ssdNow (boot drive)
total of about 12TB of hdd space
EVGA GTX 1080 Founders edition( runs main screen & my left screen)
EVGA GTX 780 Founders edition (runs my right screen)
INTEL i7 4770k (stock clock) 3.5ghz
32 gigs of RAM
and a gazillion USB items connected to it.
oh oh and a corsair 850W PSU
and so overall, its not the biggest system in the world but 1900 score is WAY too low. heck i got around 4.5k scores with my 780 as my main card.....
what am i missing?
Thanks in advanced.
