72westy Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 Got a big boost with a GPU upgrade from RX570 OC to RTX 2070 OC. Low FPS down low over terrain is 70+ at higher altitudes 125+. With the 570 I was getting 40-50 low 50+ high.

TheOtherSider Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Get a better cpu. your CPU is bottlenecking your GPU. https://pc-builds.com/calculator/Core_i7-3770K/GeForce_RTX_2070/00212xlu/32/100/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72westy Posted July 27, 2020 Author Share Posted July 27, 2020 (edited) Calculator is off. Not seeing that on my end. Never had any luck using that calculator. In the end better performance within an app or game? Roll with it.

reece146 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 You are definitely CPU throttled. 2070S here, just upgraded 3770k at 4.7MHz to stock speed 10700k. Night and day difference. Now I'm GPU bottlenecked - depending on settings chosen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art-J Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 You would see it if you also got a new CPU. You're still in a good situation, though - you already got a great fps improvement and there's still some more performance to be extracted in the future out of that new card when you upgrade your CPU and mobo someday. Enjoy your purchase! i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
