GTX 780ti low bf4 fps.

[Ashley Walker]

Build:
Asus GTX 780ti direct CU II OC edition
i7- 3770k at 3.5ghz
asrock h61m-dgs
8gb DDR3
win7 64-bit
iiyama ProLite E2473HS (Monitor)
Sata 1TB HDD


I'm currently finding that during 32 player matches are dropping as low as 30fps fairly frequently (High or Ultra settings). I am however displaying it on a 1080p monitor 60hz monitor with respective settings.
I was hoping if someone could advise me on this situation.

Thanks, Ash

Do you have the latest drivers, directly from Nvidia for your 780ti???? Also, what method are you using to measure fps???

Do you have the latest Nvidia drivers?

Oh and a h61m is a poor low performance motherboard for a 3770k.

Since it happens in multiplayer it sounds like a CPU deficiency.
Make sure your CPU clocks and temps are normal

I'm using the "perfoverlay.drawfps 1" command and the drivers are up to date. It may possibly be the motherboard

Clocks and temps are normal, it's quite possibly the cheap ass motherboard.
Thanks for you help

What motherboard would you recommend for around $150?

 

[ModernWarfare]

yes i highly recommend you a z77-z87 board and you will see the difference you will get 60+fps ingame.

Check your GPU and CPU usage in game?
Your GPU should stay near 100% while the CPU should stay below ~90%

 

[ModernWarfare]

a very solid and gaming mobo i recommend:http://pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-motherboard-z87g45gaming

NOTICE:h61m mobo's are not compatible with intel i7 3770k!!!.

GPU is at around 97%

CPU averages at around 93, however 2 of the 4 cores managed to hit 96 whilst hitting a temp of 79 degrees celsius

How would you advise?
Thanks man

79c? That is kinda hot.
I suggest you check the cooler because you may hit thermal throttling

Thanks man!

with best performance and very cool temps around 55-60c these two are the best combination!

I think I'll invest in a non-stock CPU cooler today. Any recommendations, good Sir?

That Z87 motherboard won't work with the i7 3770k, it uses Z77.

This is pretty good motherboard, the CPU cooler he suggested is great.

Edit: Looks like he fixed it before I posted this

i dont honestly know that the motherboard would be the cause(as long as it is operating properly of course). it shouldnt really matter. h61 will run with an i7 3770k, it just wont overclock.

seems that no one has thought to ask what kind of power supply you are using...do you know?

Yes, but I'm 90% sure that the H61 WILL be bottlenecking and holding back the power of the i7. The H61 is only really designed for pentium and celeron cpus and an i7 shouldn't really be running on it, especially if gaming.
