I have been getting low fps with my gtx 1060 3gb. In Gta i get around 45 fps on the lowest settings, and putting up the graphics does not really make a change. Mt CPU is a AMD FX-8350. I used to have a different cpu but i changed it for this cpu because of the bottleneck, and low fps. It used to work fine but now it's not working as it used to. Does anyone know a solution, is there a possibility that i need new ram? I have had this computer for over 5 years.

Greetings,

Titus. E
 
Solution


you are looking for core speeds that ramp up to the full boost when under load, or is it stuck at something like 1500mhz


you are also looking for temps to stay under 60 degrees while under load, higher than that and the cpu will throttle to save itself


in gta you will never reach average ~60 fps regardless, the cpu is not strong enough

cpu bottleneck, even with a 8350

of course it can be made worse by thermal throttling

or core speed throttling due to crappy motherboard



list your specs completely


also do you monitor cpu temps/core speed while you run games?
if not install msi afterburner and do so in the OSD it has


amd overdrive is also a good option

I am not realy a pro in the pc world, i know my basics. So i'm not really sure what i'm looking for when looking at my cpu temps. But from what i know they look fine, but could you help me with that?
