Have you never seen one of these before? It's from around 1998 to 2000.

Getting my GPU today, today is the day that my glorious dream computer shall be constructed.

[Zloff]

got my gtx 1070, updated all drivers and played fo4 on my ultrawide 1080p to test it (minimal mods, none graphic-changing; quality settings at high, almost nothing ultra/maxed). 20-50 fps in the city with annoying performance drop spikes, 45-60 (my max is 60) everywhere else.

what the forget is wrong with this card?

my r9 380 - same 21:9 monitor and graphic settings with many mods enabled, including graphics-enhancing mods - ran overall only slightly worse than this 1070, if you take the 1070's spikes out of the comparison.

i'm seriously dumbfounded, i expected almost 2.5x higher fps on average

[espio100]

theres something wrong with it

[Bisjac]

is it a super cpu bottleneck? or getting high heats?

[Zloff]

damnit, i didn't even consider a cpu bottleneck. i was told my setup would run fine with a gpu upgrade

[Bisjac]

yeah your high isnt even 50% usage on the gpu. and all your heats are good.
so thats just textbook cpu bottleneck there.
