Hi!
Yesterday I upgraded my AMD Radeon HD 7790 to a brand new GTX 1050 Ti,
and also upgraded my slow 4GB RAM, to a much faster (1866Mhz) 8GB RAM.
With my old hardware, in MS FSX, in heavy scenery airports, I used to get around 18 FPS.
Now, after the upgrade, I get no more than 11 FPS.
After monitoring my resources, I noticed that all of the 4 cores of the CPU are on 100%.
I understand it, the graphics card and the RAM are better, so now the bottleneck is the CPU, that's fine - but how is it possible that the FPS is now lower?
I mean, if the graphics card or the RAM were the bottleneck, that means that the CPU succeeded to run in a way that allows 18 FPS, and now, after the upgrade, it won't work in such a way - that's pretty wierd, I think.
Does anyone have any ideas that can explain this situation, or even improve my CPU's performances? (I thought about overclocking, but with my CPU it won't help much, I think...)
Thanks in advance for the helpers!
My hardware:
- CPU: Intel Core i5-2400 3.1Ghz
- GPU: MSI GTX 1050 Ti 4GT OC
- RAM: HyperX FURY 8GB 1866MHz
