    New GTX 1080 running terribly


    I recently updated my PC setup to a GTX 1080 and expected smooth frames on all games but was very disappointed. The games I have tried are Just Cause 3, Ring of Elysium, Terraria, CS:GO, and all have been running at 5-20 FPS even at medium to low settings. Is there a way to fix this?


    Specs:

    CPU: Intel i7 8th gen 8700k

    Power Supply: OCZ Fatal1ty 1000W

    SSD: Samsung 970 EVO NVMe M.2

    RAM: TridentZ RGB 16G DDR4

    Motherboard: ROG STRIX Z390-E Gaming

    CPU fan: Hyper 212 LED

    HDD: WD Blue 1 TB

    OS: Windows 10


    Please send help, I cannot handle running simple games at such a low frame rate.

    :)

    Nvidia GTX 1080 performance issue.

    Original title: NVidia GTX 1080 Running Slow

    Hi,

    I have recently finished building another PC the components are.

    CPU: Intel 5820K

    GPU: GTX 1080 (Asus)

    Ram: 32GB

    MOBO: Asus Sabertooth

    OS: Windows 10 Pro

    I did have a GTX 770 installed until the GTX 1080 came out but i'm not getting very good graphic response. I use my PC for work for editing videos and Photos but it just doesn't seem that powerful and is performing on par with my old GTX 770 witch is a massive
    step underneath the new GTX 1080. I don't have any idea why its doing this unless is a Windows Driver Issue i cant seem to find anyone with the same problem, please help if you have any ideas!

    Thank you for your time.

    Rob

    Nvidia GTX 1080 performance issue.

    I don't see any reason why the GTX 1080 would underperform the GTX 770 on that motherboard.

    Have you run any benchmarks such as PassMark Performance Test to compare the two cards?

    Should get double the G3D Mark with the GTX 1080:

    Nvidia GTX 1080 performance issue.

    When you installed the GTX 1080 card did you uninstall the driver that was installed for the GTX 770 and then install the driver for the GTX 1080 ?

    If not, try that, using the latest driver from NVIDIA for the reinstall that supports the GTX 1080 :
