Hi everyone, Merry Christmas! I'm running a X299 Dark with a i9-9900X processor set on auto for multiplier, G.Skill 3200 memory, EVGA Titan X. Sold my EVGA X99 Classified with 6850k. The problem I am having is slower performance with the X299. I like to just run the 3Dmark Firestrike test and I score mid 13k, I use to score mid 16k with the X99 board. The graphics test 1 and 2 and physics seem on par but the combined test is horrible averaging 20fps or so, I use to see 40's on the X99. The gpu usage never really goes above 50% on the combined test. I cant figure out why this new board is slower and have tried everything I can think of. Also tried new windows and driver install, different bios versions, resetting bios and making sure every things set right, different slots, different power supply, re-seated cpu. I can hit 16k's if I set the multiplier for the i9-9900x cpu at 46 but I didn't think I would have to push it that fast to score equal to a X99. I'm out of ideas. Is something bottle necked? Thanks.
