Gtx 680

Hardware Hub GPU
1

Hello forums , I have been having some issues with my Graphics card and I do not know what seems to be the problem. I've been getting very low frame rates with my card lately I've never seen this happen to me before. An example would be Skyrim and Fallout NV I would usually get at least 60 - 70 fps but now its at 30 and it will even drop it 15 occasionally.

 

Specs :

 

Cpu : AMD FX 4100

Motherboard : Msi 970a - g45

Graphics card : Evga Gtx 680

HDD : Western Digital 1tb black caviar

Operating System : Windows 7 Home premium

Power supply : Cooler master extreme plus 600W

Case : Cooler master 690II NVidia edition

Probably your CPU; a very unbalanced rig.

What temps are you pulling, and what is the GPU usage in the game(s)?

For my temps im around the 50's - 60's and Im not too sure about the GPU usage.

I'd say the weak link is definitely the CPU, doing an upgrade to a 6300 or 8350 might be a good idea. However you need to check if your bios is updated to support the newer FX chips.
