Windows 10: How can I get the most performance out of my GPU?

Bear with me, this is going to be incredibly specific and I'm a layman when it comes to computers. I bought my first pre-built tower PC and have downloaded and installed exactly one game: Overwatch.PC Specs:NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 SUPERIntelR CoreTM 15-10400 CPU @ 2.90GHz15.74 GB RAM2560 x 1440, 180HzThe problem: Despite running tests that show a solid 120fps, 60ms ping and 10ms latency over a 1Gig internet Ethernet connection I am constantly losing connection to the Overwatch servers and it kicks me from the game. What looks like is happening is the CPU is running at 60% while the GPU is

My GPU is heavily under performing, please help!

Hi,



Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

• 
  What is the make and model of GPU?
  
• 
  Do you face this issue only with this game or all the game?
  

I suggest you to use the same GPU in different computer and check if the issue persist.

As you mentioned that you have overclocked the CPU, Microsoft does not recommend overclocking the CPU.

Reply with necessary information and I’ll be happy to help you further

Thanks and Regards

 

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.
