I recently purchased an MSI Z170A Titanium Edition to replace my previous Z77A-G45 Gaming Edition Mobo. As a result, I had to upgrade my CPU from an i7-3770 and instead i got the i7-6700k. I decided to keep my GPU which is an EVGA GTX 770 Superclocked.
When i tried to play some games on the new system, i noticed some really bad performance after a few minutes of gameplay. One in particular is CSGO. I would have a steady 300FPS but after 1-2 minutes my fps would drop and start going all over the place. As a result, the performance dropped and everything became laggy/choppy. Same with the recently released Overwatch.
I purchased the Z170A under the assumption (bad assumption?) that it would support the GTX 770 but after looking at MSI's website i noticed that the GTX 770 is not listed as one of the supported video cards.
This may be an obvious question, but i want to get confirmation that it is definitely my gpu not being supported by the mobo that is causing this performance issue and not something else.
