Hello.
I swapped a gtx 780 thinking it's a faulty card for 970 and I'm having the same problem with it. I think I'm getting half of what the card is capable of and the same thing was happening with 780.
Card in question: MSI GAMING GeForce GTX 970 4GB OC.
1080p for reference.
I've tried multiple games I watched people test online with the same card.
Crysis 3 - High Settings Medium Texture Resolution - the moment I walk out in the open world static 25 FPS
Project CARS - Medium settings less than 30 FPS -Nvidia Experience optimal gets 20-25
Battlefield1 - High settings preset 35 FPS
Dirt 4 - unplayable even on Low settings 25FPS. Ultra-low 120+. Ultra High literally 6 FPS
GTA 5 - Ultra Settings 2x MSAA - 30FPS
In GTA5 the card is at 99% usage 62 temp. CPU usage 50%-temp 65. GPU core clock 1300 mem clock 3500.
-All clocks and temps on all parts look normal.
-None of the parts are OC'd.
-Latest Nvidia drivers - Used DDU before installing
-Windows freshly installed
-Nvidia control panel and windows power settings are optimized.
-Also I unparked 3 cores which didn't change anything.
-Set Afterburner to max power limit with a target temp. of 80
-CPU Clock 3.7 when under load
-RAM clock seems normal too
Valley benchmark;
These benchmarks are lower than what people seem to be getting with the same card ?
Userbenchmark score idk if this is allowed sry if it isn't - http://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/4679708
In all the games I tested;
CPU usage <60%, temps 70 tops
RAM usage optimal
GPU at 99% - VRAM optimal - temps never go above 65
Rig:
PSU: Thermaltake Litepower 650W LT-650P
CPU: i7-3770
Motherboard: ASRock Z77 Pro4-M
GPU: MSI GAMING GeForce GTX 970 4GB OC
RAM: Transcend 2x8GB @1333Mhz
SDD: Kingston HyperX Savage 480GB SSD
I can't think of a reason why this is happening. The rig should make sense but for some reason it's massively underperforming. I had the same problem with Windforce 780. It held 50+FPS GTA5 ultra on my friends rig but on mine it couldn't get past 35. And now with the 970 same story.
From what I've seen I think I'm getting half the FPS others get on the same card.Seen people play Dirt4 ProjectCars GTA at ultra 60fps with it and I can't run it on low settings..
I would really appreciate some help here I'm really lost as to what to do anymore.
