hey guys !
here is my problem : i recenty bought a used gtx 980 from palit, as an upgrade over my rx 470.
it does perform well in benchmarks, having scored 2225 on heaven benchmark maxed out at 1080p with a stable 1600 MHz.
but ingame, the performance isnt there. on overwatch, i achieve only around 40 fps on epic settings scaling at 100% on a 1440x900 display
on the same display, bf4 performs very badly getting around 20-30 fps online (even on 60Hz servers) and below 60 fps in singleplayer.
i did change the settings in n-vidia control panel to ehance performance but nothing changed
the consommation thingy in windows also is on performance mode.
so my FPS dropped when switching from rx 470 to gtx 980 and i dont know what to do.
i did clean windows from all amd drivers before intalling geforce experience and any nvidia drivers.
for information, my setup is : i3-7100 / 8gb ddr4 2133MHz ram / vs550w psu
I thank you all !
