Hello, I have a EVGA RTX 3080 and my games are kinda low on fps because of my GPU won't go to 100% utilization. I have a Ryzen 9 5900X and 64GB RAM. Games like Warzone (90 - 100 fps), Battlefield 4 (150 - 160 fps) and Battlefield 5 (100 - 120 fps) only uses like 40 to 60% of GPU even at max graphics settings, I play on 1080p 240Hz monitor because i prefere high fps over resolution, the only way that the GPU goes at 100% is setting the render scale to 200% but obviously I won't get that much fps. I've tried running DDU and fresh installing latest nvidia drivers, installing old drivers, updating BIOS, setting energy options to max performance, enabling Resizeable BAR on latest drivers, updating GPU bios, and lastly formating and reinstalling windows from 0. I don't know what else to try. I want my GPU gives the maximum performance possible at 1080p.

What version of Precision X1 are you running? I have discovered a bug introduced in 1.1.9 that will randomly set the power target at 8%. If you move the slider to 100%, all is well. But you have to check it constantly because it will reset itself.

I’m using the v1.1.9 but i have the same problem with a older version but if i move to the max the power target just say its use the 10%

Wouldn't your resolution be the primary cause? What happens if you increase it from 1080p?

At 1080p, you are going to be very limited to how many CPU threads the game can utilize. Warzone, for example, can only effectively utilize somewhere between 8 and 12 CPU threads. This means that at low resolution, the GPU will be waiting on the CPU (thus low GPU utilization) while your CPU's overall usage appears low. Your CPU's overall usage will appear low (due to the huge number of CPU threads it has), because the game is not capable of using all of the CPU threads and instead maxes out the threads it can use.

Check #5 from this thread: https://forums.evga.com/FindPost/2504606Also, you can try msi afterburner to see if you are having an issue with Precision X1 like another user posted. You can also look at GPUz to see if you are getting any messages about why it's limited (pwr target, thermal limit, etc.). Just curious, what memory do you have and what speed and timings is it set at?

5900x + 3080 in warzone is 200+ fps always on 1080p on the biggest map. Check your nvidia control panel settings also and set to prefer maximum performance, and tweak you cpu curve optimizer.

I would log CPU use per core use over time with X1 HWM, Afterburner, HWiNFO or even task manager, this should tell you if you are CPU bound (per core sustained 100%), which would not be surprising with a 5900X and 1080P. Aside from other software/driver tweaks, you can typically improve gaming performance on Ryzen with faster/tighter ram, disabling hyperthreading and OC.

Did you set the XMP profile in your bios? I have forgotten to set the speed before (you have to do it manually) the first time I set the computer up or after updating the bios. If you recently updated your bios for resizable BAR, it may have reset your memory to default (which would be something like 2133 or maybe 2400MHz). That will significantly impact your performance. You can use a program like CPUz or HWiNFO to check that as well. Just know that if you use CPUz, the "DRAM Frequency" on the memory tab will show you half of what your set speed actually is. For example, if you look at this random picture from Google: The actual memory speed (set in bios) is 2129MHz (1064.5*2) as it's Double Data Rate memory.

This sounds a lot like a non-GPU bottleneck. What does your CPU utilization look like? Is the processor's clock boosting properly? Is there another process hanging on in the background and getting in the way?

It's very easy - at 1080P resolution you are never going to see much usage from a 30xx series card.( except maybe the 3060/ 3060ti ) Even a 1080Ti is barely going to reach 75% usage at that resolution, much less these 30xx series cards. Even Nvidia's own slides/ presentations told people they were engineered for 4K . They showed how at 1080p you will barely see an increase over last few gens ...then at 1440p you will start to see increases for ultra settings & high refresh rates ..but they really shine at preforming better than the 2080ti when testing at 4k settings. SO basically everything is working about as it should be for you. Your setup will really do great at 1440p & at 4K ( 1080p is what is holding you back)

yeah i just chek the frequency and was fine they are working at 1599.6mhz i use cpuz so should be 3200 mhz at the final

OK, that goes back to some of the other ideas. Did you try the Geforce Experience thing? Also, it would be helpful if you could run something like HWiNFO and check the CPU clock speed and utilization. It may give us more information to be able to help. While I have seen what aka_STEVE_b is saying happen with some 30xx series cards, usually, there's some bottleneck holding the card back. It is not always easy to figure out what that bottleneck is. One other thing I've seen is a motherboard (for reasons unknown to the world) setting the PCI-e slot at an old version and limited lanes. You may want to go into your bios PCI settings and make sure it is set at PCI-version 4 (or 3 should be fine too) and x16. I just saw this recently where someone I know had a 3070 doing the same thing. He was CPU bound with a 3400G CPU, but he also didn't have XMP set after updating his bios and for said unknown reason, his PCI slot was set at version 1 x4. Edit!: Sorry, I forgot to clarify that I'd like to see some screenshots of your HWiNFO monitoring During gameplay.

I'd imagine it's relatively easy to CPU bottleneck a 3080 at 1080p. On the other hand, the game could be poorly optimized for extreme framerates or there is some other hardware/software bottleneck that's harder to diagnose

loveman05 Hello, I have a EVGA RTX 3080 and my games are kinda low on fps because of my GPU won't go to 100% utilization. I have a Ryzen 9 5900X and 64GB RAM. Games like Warzone (90 - 100 fps), Battlefield 4 (150 - 160 fps) and Battlefield 5 (100 - 120 fps) only uses like 40 to 60% of GPU even at max graphics settings, I play on 1080p 240Hz monitor because i prefere high fps over resolution, the only way that the GPU goes at 100% is setting the render scale to 200% but obviously I won't get that much fps. I've tried running DDU and fresh installing latest nvidia drivers, installing old drivers, updating BIOS, setting energy options to max performance, enabling Resizeable BAR on latest drivers, updating GPU bios, and lastly formating and reinstalling windows from 0. I don't know what else to try. I want my GPU gives the maximum performance possible at 1080p.
Because you are at 1080p you will never use your card's full potential. Think about it this way: With a card like that at 1080p you're underclocking your performance and bottlenecking at your monitor. You will get high frame rates in most titles at max settings at 1440p. I run 1440p with a hybrid 3080 FTW3 Ultra and it would feel like a waste of my GPU's potential to game at 1080. I've been thinking of finally stepping up to 4K because it's clear I can still get some killer framerates without turning settings down much, if at all. Your solution is to get a monitor that can utilize your GPUs performance.

This is the solution. Gotta get a better monitor to use all of that GPU horse power. Could also see if other games with more demanding graphics make your GPU work. Wonder what MSFS 2020 demands with that GPU
