Hello.
I have recently bought a Gigabyte GTX 1060 6GB Windforce GPU to replace my GTX 570, that wasn't putting up to the latest releases, even on the lowest settings.
Turns out things haven't improved as expected.
With the GTX 570 I was able to play Far Cry 5 on low settings at 720p smoothly. Assassin's Creed Origins would run on lowest settings at 720p with lots of stuttering (so, roughly unplayable), and I was unable to play Madden 19, as it would run at like 5 fps and eventually crash, even on lowest settings and 720p.
With the GTX 1060 I can play Far Cry 5 on ultra settings with 60 fps avarage, 60-70% avg. CPU usage and 70-80% avg. GPU usage. Assassin's Creed Origins runs at very high settings at 40 fps avarage, 90-100% avg. CPU usage and 70-80% avg. GPU usage, with the ocasional stutter, I suppose lowering the settings a little would probably fix it.
Madden 19, though, didn't seem to have improved. CPU load is constantly at 100%, GPU load stays around 20%, and FPS avarages at like 10! Way unplayable.
So I wonder if someone knows why that happens. Is it the CPU that is limiting the FPS, especially on Madden 19, since GPU load stays at around 20%?
My rig is not new, nor that great, but I really thought a GPU improvement would make recent games playable, and not that I'd get 10 fps on Madden 19. Here are the specs:
MoBo: Gigabyte GA 990-FXA UD3
CPU: AMD FX-6100, 3.3 GHz
Cooler: Corsair AirSeries A70
RAM: Corsair Vengence DDR3 2x4GB at 1866Mhz
Power Supply: Corsair 700W
Apreciate the help.
