Hello, i am having some major issues with my computer and i have actually built and diagnosed many desktops and this one one stumps me.
System Specs:
Processor: Intel core i7 3770k
Ram: single dim 8 GB corsair vengeance 1600 MHz( the other dim went bad but it worked fine even with it removed)
Motherboard: ASrock Z68 extreme3 gen3
VGA: Gigabyte Gtx 1080 g1
PS: corsair HX 1050
so to start out the computer worked as expected with my old 660 ti and before i water cooled the 1080 it seemed to do good as well, I don't have bench marks but i was playing pubg on ultra with only a little lag. (and that game has no optimization). when i water cooled suddenly i was getting less then 1/8 of my brothers performance on all games like far cry. 15 fps on ultra and only 33 on low. i have tried overclocking it, under clocking it, changing nvidia settings, restarting my computer (which strangely enough sometimes helps allot, i go from 15 fps - 32 on ultra?) which still sucks and if i reboot it may drop my performance. i have updated the drivers several times, trying older drivers flashing motherboard bios ect. also my windows update keeps reverting and saying it fails and randomly i get a b2 code(no graphics adapter directed) when booting and have to restart which of course then it boots fine? this is the strangest thing i have ever run into most the time if hardware like the cpu and graphics card are bad the computer doesn't work at all or crashes allot, mine never crashes even when gaming, please give me any suggestions or experiences you've had thanks a ton!
