Windows 10: GPU Underperforming Issues

I've been having an issue with my PC and it's performance for a while. The spec is below.Ryzen 3700X16GB 3600 MhzGigabyte Aorus 2080 Super1TB NVME SSD Adata XPG SX8200 ProLL120 Fans, H100i AIO.The issue seems to be GPU / software related as far as I can tell. I first noticed the issue months ago playing Fortnite, I'd still get ~144 most of the time comfortably - but with increasing frequentcy I would experience massive frame drops to say 80, 60, even things like 40 and 20 FPS. These occur fairly regularly, more than once a minute. This seems to be tied to Desktop Window Manage

having issues with multi GPU

I’m trying to offload certain apps to my iGPU on the second screen, using the new graphics settings in the recent win 10 release. the issue is it’s only showing my 1070. lists it as both power saving GPU, and
high performance GPU.

I’ve been fiddling for a while now with no joy, and i’m really hoping one of you guys has an idea they can suggest to sort this!

I can extend onto the second screen no probs with it plugged into the iGPU, but the 1070 is still listed as both power saving GPU and high performance GPU.

Are there requirements for this? certain level of iGPU for it to work?

Thanks

Edit - setting the secondary screen connected to the iGPU to be the "main" display in graphics settings makes my iGPU show as both power saving and high performance GPU, I just can't seem to get them
to be one and not the other.

That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
