Hello! My GTX 1070 is not performing well, I get less than 30 FPS in games such as World of Warcraft (on all low settings) and about Overwatch also on low settings.

I have uninstalled and resinstalled the latest NVIDIA drivers, the only program I have running in the background is my anti-virus.

I am not sure why I get such poor graphics performance in games. In comparison, my ASUS GTX 680 works better than this card.

System specs:
i7-6700k (not overclocked)
16GB ram (3200MHZ)
ASUS Hero Viii MOBO


Any ideas on what I can do to fix my low FPS issues? My mother board is NOT overclocked, but the memory is and XMP configred it to 3200mhz.

Thank you!!!

WoW still depends alot on the CPU and't isnt the best multicore optimized game out there.
In dense populated areas it is nothing new to have relatively low fps.
In Overwathc (and more empty regions in WoW) it should give you way higher framerates than that.

Would you mind monitoring your CPU/GPU usage and temperatures?
Maybe your new card is just getting to hot and clocks itself down.
