Hi

So pretty much in-game BF1 i'm getting:
70-110fps ultra on conquest or operations
GPU core clock 1949mhz constant
GPU power 40-60-70% (when my usage goes down this goes down to 60-70)
GPU usage 70-98% (mostly at 70-80% when overlooking battles but sometimes goes to 90%)
CPU usage 58%

I'm wondering if its my PSU, i had a dead one like 6 months ago and had to get SCAN Computers Ltd to replace it.

Also if i play Witcher 3 ultra i get like 80-110fps with GPU usage always 99% and the power is floating slowly between 80-91%

Try dropping the resolution as a test, if the fps stays about the same your only option is to overclock your cpu. A PSU cannot cause reduced fps.

I have just put my 4.0GHZ (volt 1.275) and i still get the low GPU usage.

Also yes a PSU can cause low fps if it isn't giving enough juice.

Similar performance I have seen in those titles with a water cooled 1080 running at 2100Mhz. I agree, likely a CPU limit.

That's not much of an overclock, you would barely notice it. What happens if you lower the resolution? If you monitor cpu cores are any hitting 100%?

....not much of an overclock, yes it is.

The stock is 3.4GHZ and i've pushing every core (six of them) up by 0.6GHZ so that's 3.6GHZ all together which is a big increase. I have seen a big boost but in some areas it still slightly struggles.

make sure that your ram is running on 2666mhz becouse i had the same problem and then i noticed that my ram was running on 666 mhz when i went into the bios and made sure that it was running on 2400mhz my usage and fps got al fixed.

That wasn't the problem

In fact it was that i needed to turn my manufacturers default OC back on, which was 4.0GHZ across all cores compared to my base clock of 3.4GHZ. I cant remember the manual volt for the OC at the mo but its stable but i think is something like 275 or something oh i cant remember. I at the time had had it disabled as i didnt need the extra power (in so excess heat) and not knowing much about OC's at that time i didnt know that would fix it or not.

Even with the overlock enabled i would still see it go down to 90-95% usage while playing conquest large on the Amien map and getting 85-110fps. With no overclock i would get anywhere between 60-80%usage and my frames would be in the 70-90fps on the same map.

I haven't played in ages thou as i was getting sick of the terrible servers... there are 0 English UK servers, the closest were Ireland (super rare, ,maybe 1 or 2), French & German ones. So i may have a low ping of 50 but still got stupid latency times.

I play Fallout 4 and MG Phantom Pain now instead, less hassle.
