Hello guys,
I've been struggling with really low fps delivered by my new rig. I'm using the game DOOM as the main example right now.
Link to my nightmares: http://
There's constant dips from 70 all the way to sometimes 20 fps, there are really rare moments where it runs at 100-144 fps. I don't think that there should be such dramatic drops happening not just from time to time, but ALL the time...
I have ran virus testing, all kinds of scanning, the computer is clean.
Could it be some sort of bottlenecking? I don't think so...
I have a brand new EVGA SuperClocked GTX 1080, fresh out of the box and I'm speechless, i expected to have at least a solid 100 fps with this card, please help me guys, what am i missing ?
I have an Acer Predator 144hz 2560x1440 gsync monitor, running on windows 10 with an i7-5960x 8-core processor and 64gb of Corsair Vengeance RAM (i need that much, cause i also work as an animator)
The computer is new.
I've tried running Doom on other settings than Ultra, there's almost no difference, the problem is somewhere else and i don't know where, i've tried turning off Vsync, turning off Gsync, reset the Nvidia 3D settings to default, i tried running on Vulkan, no difference.
There's moments where my fps goes down to 30 and that's when i start to think if life is even worth living... what is it that I'm missing here?
Maybe some of my hardware is faulty?
I deinstalled my GPU Drivers with DDU, installed the current latest one which is 376.09
Windows updates are all up to date.

Today while looking into forums i noticed a guy linking a screenshot of the PCI slot he has connected his GPU to and saw that mine isn't the same, might this be cause?

I am not the most experienced with all this, maybe I'm missing something, please guys, anything you can suggest...
Edit 1: Just recorded this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uuxwCS-bUJA what's going on, my CPU drops dramatic frames from a single staggering shot on an Imp, im so confused
>>>>>>>>> FIXED IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <<<<<<<<<
Solution: I had to have my GPU at the top slot, mine was on the one below. <<<<< !!!! L O L
FPS in Doom - Foundry level now - http://imgur.com/a/2NMS6
Thank you everyone for taking the time to suggest solutions, <3 !
