Poor performance with a gtx 1060

Zoldie · Oct 20, 2016

I recently switched my old gtx 770 to an 1060 and I was expecting a big improvement to fps in games like gta v with ultra settings.. But instead i'm now getting 30-50 frames in most games, with all settings(low,med,high,ultra) I'm really wondering whats the case here, any help? :/

CPU: i5 4670K 3.4 GHz
Mb: Asus Z87-C
RAM: 16Gb DDR3

(All of my drivers are up to date)

Use MSI afterburner to monitor GPU usage, temperature, and core clock while gaming and post some results here.

Beside checking all the stuffs mentioned by Mr. Kagouris,
I wanna remind you that GTX1060 is about near to an OCed GTX970. Jumping from GTX770 to GTX1060 is not a really big jump.
You should aim higher e.g. GTX1070 to get a really wow jump.

Yeah i'm aware of that. But I had a budget of 300€ and for its price and performance the gtx 1060 6gb seemed like a good option. Before buying it I did some research and it should run almost every game with best settings and get a reasonable amount of fps(60+) Also the 770 had only 2gb of memory soo it was quite a jump for me

Z87-C BIOS 2103 and BIOS updater
Improve system stability.

smorizio :

You think updating my bios would help? I haven't updated it since I assembled my pc back in 2013. And if I do so are there any risks, or is it just download & run kinda thing?

Mr Kagouris · Oct 20, 2016

Yeah something's off here. GPU usage is way too low. Taking another look at your post (you say that you get around 40-50FPS regardless of settings), make sure Vsync isn't being forced in the Nvidia control panel or any of the games.

Zoldie · Oct 20, 2016

Nope, vsync isn't enabled in control panel or in any of the games.

smorizio · Oct 20, 2016

with new mb it download the file to a usb stick...unzip it and then run the bios updater from the bios. it run then reboot. after it reboots just make sure xmp and any old settings are still set.

Make sure ALL drivers on the Moro and gpu are fully up to date, they will be slow otherwise
