    Random losses of power

    Some Citrix-related stuff, but that's it. Doesn't seem likely to be the cause??

    Random losses of power

    Ok, the Event Viewer is showing a **** ton of events... is there a way of sharing this with you guys? Here's a snapshot, but the list is massive... They appear to be happening constantly

    Random losses of power

    Yes, it's literally like someone has switched it off at the socket.

    Random losses of power

    Approx. once per day my PC just shuts off as though I've hit the reset button. It's not heat-related (as far as I can tell). What the best way of trying to diagnose this? Apologies if this is not the correct forum for this.

    The Ampere RTX 3090 Owners Thread

    What sort of Timespy Extreme GPU scores are you boys getting? This was my Strix OC card at +115 Core and +275 Mem. Temps maxing out at about 76C... anyone know what a safe temp is (I'm quite new to all this)?

    Overclocking/PC-performance consultants: do they exist?

    The 3090 should be able to give me waaaay more than 180fps at 1080p. I know it's not a 1080p card and I won't be playing at that resolution, but in an attempt to bottleneck the CPU and boost fps by reducing the resolution, I still can't get CPU usage above 45%. I know that Warzone is a...

    Overclocking/PC-performance consultants: do they exist?

    How can I determine whether the CPU is throttling? Even at the very lowest graphics settings in Warzone, I cannot get my CPU usage to anything close to 100% (see below MWMonitor screenshots). As far as I can tell, this the same in other games too, not just WZ.

    Overclocking/PC-performance consultants: do they exist?

    Timespy Extreme: Then I ran Cinebench: So it looks like CPU is cooler when running flat out in Cinebench (with GPU idle) vs. at 30-40% utilization in Warzone?? I don't know anything about memory, but this is what I could find (this is interesting, because I enabled XMP in BIOS and could...

    Overclocking/PC-performance consultants: do they exist?

    Thanks again for your help. I understand that 4K gaming will be GPU bound, but doesn’t explain why setting resolution in Warzone to 1080p still can’t get the CPU above 40-45% usage. Could this have anything to do with the fact that my 5950X has 16 cores and they won’t all be working at 100% at...

    Overclocking/PC-performance consultants: do they exist?

    Thanks for the quick reply mate. yeah, I think it’s less about Overclocking and more about just helping me to check that all the components are behaving themselves as they should in terms of thermals, power, standard performance etc I’m struggling to get more than 100-130fps in Warzone at 4K...

    Overclocking/PC-performance consultants: do they exist?

    Just completed my first PC build in about 15 years. I want to check that I'm getting the best performance from every component and I don't have the time/inclination to teach myself. I don't feel like I'm getting the FPS in games (Warzone/Cyberpunk) that my spec should deliver (according to...

    RTX3090 underperforming?

    @Th0nt Ok, I've removed the side panel and ramped up the CPU and system fans to 100% (don't know how to manual set GPU fan) Results are the same, Afterburner is telling me I'm at 95% GPU loads @ 65C, CPU never gets higher than 35% load and is sitting around 60C Switching from 4k to 1440p bumps...

    RTX3090 underperforming?

    Interesting, ok. I know the 5950X runs a little on the hot side out of the box, so I ran a Cinebench and with CPU at full load (and obviously very little GPU load), my CPU temps were only around 53C. I'm thinking, therefore, that GPU is heating things up. Cooling: I'm running 3x 140mm intake...

    RTX3090 underperforming?

    Ok, trying to diagnose my FPS issues in Warzone using MSI Afterburner and GPU-Z: MSI Afterburner is telling me I'm at 95% GPU load @ c. 60 degrees, whilst CPU load is at around 30% consistently (at 4k) Looking at GPU-Z, the PerfCap Reason is 'Idle'.... any ideas (screenshot below)?

    RTX3090 underperforming?

    yeah but I also have a 5950X CPU so I should be a damn sight better than 130

    this was the score in the programme with the two GPU tests and the single CPU test
