Low Performance on High End PC

I’ve got gtx 1080 ti with 16gb 3200mhz ram and i7 8700k oc to 4.9gh, getting very bad performance even at 1080p at ultra graphics i get in town like 30 fps outside 55 fps tried all graphics only at low graphics i get stable 60fps is that normal?

Hi, did you check this post?

Yeah i had the same problem but i put my card in another x16 slot but my pcie goes only up to x8 but it should go to x16 any suggestions, i tried to put it in the top of my motherboard pci-e slot but there it only goes x1 xD

8x is normal for SLI for example….
What’s you Mainboard?

Expansion Slot
• 3 x PCI Express 3.0 x16 Slots (PCIE2/PCIE4/PCIE6: single at x16 (PCIE2); dual at x8 (PCIE2) / x8 (PCIE4); triple at x8 (PCIE2) / x8 (PCIE4) / x4 (PCIE6))*

Plz Check on PCIe2 for dust and correct seat of the gpu Card.

There could be problem that at pci-e2 slot at the end where videocard ends there are sata ports which could be causing the issue?


This is how pcie-2 slot works for me.

If the GPU Card is not correctly seated yes this can cause this issue.
PCIe6 should be 16x too. What Speed did you get in this one?

My case is too small for pcie-6 slot
