I recently built a new PC (specs below) and cannot get a minimum frame rate above 45fps no matter what game I play, with the Redout demo being the sole exception. I understand that some of the games in question (also below) are poorly optimized games or bad ports, but I'd think that my rig should get a solid 60fps in games like Devil Daggers and The Talos Principle. I've tried fiddling with game settings to no avail. Thinking this was due to a CPU bottleneck I've overclocked my CPU (up to 4.5GHZ), also to no avail. I've tried several other things to alleviate my problem as well: disabling Intel SpeedStep, changing BIOS from PCI to PEG, disabling integrated video, enabling XMP, changing Power Plan to High performance. If I can remember anything else I've done in an attempt to improve my frame rate, I'll edit this post.
Here are the specs:
Intel Core i7-6700K
Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 6GB [driver version 378.78]
Gigabyte GA-Z170X-Ultra Gaming
16GB DDR4-3000MHZ RAM
Samsung 950 Pro 256GB M.2
Corsair RMX 750
Windows 10 Education 64-bit
Here are the games I've played on this machine:
The Talos Principle
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance
Sonic Generations
Devil Daggers
Redout Demo
Wrack
WarHammer 40K: Space Marine
Dark Souls
Doom 2016
Mighty No. 9
If any more details are needed, tell me and I'll provide them.
Thank you in advance,
