PC is performing horrible for the past 1-2 years

mr.randomizer.mr · Jul 17, 2018

Specs:

GTX 1070

Intel icore i5 6600k

8gb DDR4

BF150-GAMING M3 (motherboard)

2 ssd's

For the past couple of years my pc has been under performing heavily. For example, on bf1 i get about 30-40 fps on everything set to low , and about 10-15 on high. Similar results on other games as well. I suspected it's the bios but I'm to in-experienced with the bios to mess with it.

Can anyone help me with this issue?

Report us your temperatures while in game 1st using MSI Afterburner or other program.
Is your monitor wired with on-board GPU or gtx 1070?

salerhino :

My monitor is connected with my gtx1070 directly

Run HWiNFO in sensors only mode, save a report in full image, upload it to an image sharing website and post the link or image here.

The helpful information would be:
CPU running clock speed, temperature, fan speed,
GPU
RAM size, speed...
Fans speed

CPU, GPU, RAM, Fans = CPU cores and clock speeds, fan speeds,.. % of RAM, CPU, HDD and memory being used

I can see that your CPU is constantly at 100%, so that could mean that some processes in background are also taking it.
Check in task manager if something is using your CPU while in game.

Here are the results:

CPU running clock speed: 3,599.7Mhz
CPU temperature: 56 Celsius
GPU clock speed: 1,531.0Mhz
GPU temperature: 62 Celsius
GPU fan speed: 1.645Mhz
Ram size: 8gb DDR4
Ram speed: 1064.0Mhz

I was unable to take a picture for some reason, so I've listed the required information themselves, sorry if I'm missing anything.

make sure your mb has the newest bios and chipset drivers from intel.

salerhino · Jul 18, 2018

Check Task manager as I already told you, and also download ADWCleaner just in case and run it once.

Did you install windows fresh when you upgraded you motherboard?

salerhino :

I did this and got some adware removed, but no performance gain unfortunately. Also checked task manager and didn't find anything suspicious.

mr.randomizer.mr · Jul 19, 2018

bmockeg :

Don't remember but most likely not.

profoundnoah · Jul 19, 2018

That could easily be the culprit. Did you make a major upgrade a few years back? If so, what did you upgrade from?

mr.randomizer.mr · Jul 19, 2018

profoundnoah :

I now remember that i did at one point re-install windows after getting my new motherboard, but the problem still occurs

I had windows 10 before as well originally.

profoundnoah · Jul 19, 2018

This is just a redundancy, but have you checked your PC's power options? Mine has had similar symptoms due to it being put in low-power mode, so it's worth a check

I would highly recommend reading into/updating your motherboard's drivers/BIOS, it's not as difficult as you may think.

Well, MSI afterburner can cause issues... I've read of users solving issues such as your after removing Aferburner. http://bit.do/msi-afterburner-known-issues

From the images you took from Afterburner.. your hardware seems to be working normally and suddenly flatline!.. Read some pages on MSI Afterburner issues and after that you may agree you should disable the app at least to see if it makes a difference.

1. Before you disable Aferburner, take a HWiNFO Sensor Report > use the blue arrows Expand icon > this will put every page of the report on the same display full screen > Press the Print Screen key > Open a Paint file > Paste the screen capture > upload the image to your favorite image sharing website, and post the link or image here.

2. Next disable Afterburner from Task Manager > Startup tab.. > restart the computer if necessary for the app to be disabled >

3. Take the second HWiNFO Sensor report after the Restart

Just checked my pc power plans and they're all on max, but I'll try to update the bios(if i don't messing anything up).

zyh1987 · Jul 19, 2018

in task manger, hows your cpu usage besides the game?

any other process that's using significant amount of resource?

any hard page fault/ desk activity while gaming?

I removed afterburner but nothing really happened. I do have 2 photos of HWiNFO.

First picture is information when there is no game running: https://ibb.co/nrZVjJ
Second picture is with a game running: https://ibb.co/nsMnWy

what game are you running? your cpu usage is at 100%. and gpu usage is 30%. can you find out what else is also using your cpu from resource monitor?

Chicano · Jul 19, 2018

zyh1987 :

My very same thoughts.... the CPU runs games at 100% while the GPU runs cool and collected at 27% average... the Bottlenecker says the CPU bottlenecks slightly with that GPU but those percentages say it bottlenecks alot..

Suggested screenshots:
A task Manager > Processes tab screenshot
A taskmanager > startup tab (startup programs) screenshot

my cpu when my game is turned off is usually below half or below 20%
