Hello everyone,
I have just recently maxed out my old LGA775 system to the most powerful components my Asus P5NSLI motherboard can take.
The specs are:
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6700
8 GB DDR2 RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 1030 GT
256 GB SSD
But I think I may have a problem, when I run any game on it, like GTA 5, the CPU seems to really bottleneck the GPU, being maxed out while the GPU is barely being used at all. The game runs terribly too. The 1030 isn't supposed to bottleneck the Q6700 at all and I have seen YouTube videos of games running much much better on the same hardware.
So what is the problem and how do I fix it?
I did everything that I can in the BIOS and made sure the CPU is running at the correct speed.
Thanks
