So I thought I had a high end gaming computer but it seems I might not, my friends cheaper computer works better then mind.

I mainly play league , and I had thought it was easy to run but I'm getting like 10-30fps depending on what's happening. Then pubg I get 50. Csgo I get 45. And everything in all games is very low.


My specs
GPU - gtx 1060
CPU - intel i7-4790
Ram - 16gb
Power supply - 750W
Motherboard - z97 pc mate
1tb hardrive


I used pcbottlenecker it says my gpu and CPU can work together. I started with a old PC and I upgraded everything besides the CPU I've had the CPU since 2010 so it could be messed up or something. I also don't have windows 10 I'm on a trial type of thing where it always asks me to upgrade to full version.

I really don't know what's wrong with it besides maybe the CPU it messing it up and I might need a new one or i was reading something about how thermal paste or the fan can make it not stay cool but I don't understand any of that stuff.

Are you sure you are not using any strong anti aliasing methods? And 1060 is ideal for maxing out games at 1080p. At 1440p you might need to turn settings down a bit.

You said every driver is up to date. Checking temps is a must do... Try using geforce experience it might set the optimal settings.

1. Seems like low GPU utilization, did you install Graphics drivers?

2. On what resolution are you playing?

PS. (This system is classed as Mid-Range not High-End so dont expect it to perform as Other High-End systems)

Yes I have downloaded my drivers as well and I feel even if I'm a mid ranged computer it should be doing better then this every game seems unplayable and I can't stream anything. I'm on 2540 x ????resolution I think
