Are on machines that have driver updating enabled on Windows. Microsoft is not the best at selecting drivers. Especially when you have it all working.
There have been a few folk that tried to use the i7's graphics too.
Hi guys
Basically, I've recently noticed a drop in FPS in pretty much all of my games in the last few weeks. I have done a few searches, but I though it would be best to ask on a forum.
It could have been happening before, but it was after I installed and played an ARMA 3 trial a couple of weeks ago, that I really started to see that something wasn't right. I didn't adjust any visual settings, but it played awfully on default, probably running at less than 15FPS.
Before this, everything I played was great, I don't really display the FPS counter on all my games, but when I did, I was getting well over 60FPS (on highest settings) with no significant drops. For example, CS:GO, PUBG, Fortnite and even Deus Ex: Human Revolution. They were silky smooth before, and when I tested it out a few days ago, it seemed so be quite "jittery", no where near as smooth. And 'Rainbow Six: Siege', (a bit of a strange one), the game itself plays okay, but in the menus, it slows down when I mouse-over the operators.
Specs:
CPU: Intel Core i7-6700k CPU
MOBO: ASUS ROG Maximus VIII Hero
GPU: Nvidia GeForce 1070 8GB Strix
Memory: 16GB (2x8GB) GSkill Ripjaw V
PSU: Corsair RM750x
Cooler: Cooler Master 212 EVO
If anyone could help or advise, I would appreciate it so-so-sooo much. If any more info is needed, I will happily provide.
Sorry to ramble on, it just worries me a little. ![]()
