Hey! After reading a lot about how 1060 is the "king" of 1080p 60 fps gaming, I finally decided to upgrade from my 670.
The result was... unimpressive. My 670 couldn't achieve high fps in modern games, but if it gained 25 or 30 fps in Wildlands, I could play silky smooth (understanding that I play at low fps).
The 1060 is a completely another story: I see that it is able to get high fps, I can set higher settings and see a decent framerate, but it is completely impossible to play any game like that: they stutter all the time, fps randomly drops to 1 any moment, and 60 fps don't really feel smooth; it goes like 5 seconds at 60 fps - 1 sec 22 fps - 1 sec 1 fps - 1 sec 11 fps - 5 seconds 60 fps.
I even tried to play Witcher 1; it stutters and drops from 150 fps to 70, and these 70 fps really feel like 5, because all the movement breaks. In Wildlands, driving a car is impossible because the game stutters until you unpress W to move forward.
I started searching and found that "1060 6 GB stuttering" is a very wide and common problem... So...
Did I spend all my money in vain and gained a faulty card which is faulty by design? Or I did smth wrong? Please halp!
Technical side: 1) I re-installed drivers clean, removing the older.
2) I have an i5 4690k and 16 GB RAM, my CPU, MOBO and RAM are new and good. I read a ton of Reddit and Tomshardware topics implying that 4690 is perfectly fine for any new gpx card.
3) My PSU is NOT a culprit: 1060 is much less hungry than my previous 670. I have a powerful and expensive 850W PSU.
4) Everything was great and amazing before I inserted the new card; no programs, background apps or settings changed since.
5) It is an Inno 3D GTX 1060 6 GB.
Please help me to fix this!
