FPS drops to 20-25 after about 5 minutes of gaming
|
I have all of my settings optimized through GE Force Game Ready for my NVidia GEFORCE RTX 2070 Super but after gaming at 180 FPS for like 5 minutes it will instantly drop to between 20-25 FPS and stay there? If popping a ritual it will drop as low as 7 FPS. I've done some research and found one article mentioning a second monitor being the issue but after disconnecting my external display I found I still have the same issue. Any advice?

Looking at task manager my GPU is running at 100% at 15 FPS while standing still in my hideout. Something here doesn't seem right. Is the NVidia GEFORCE 2070 Super 8GB GPU not powerful enough to run PoE???

Hi there,
So we can look into this for you, could you please provide us with a copy of your DxDiag report? To generate a DxDiag report, please follow these steps: Press the windows key + r on your keyboard to bring up the Run interface Type dxdiag into the run dialogue box and press enter When the DxDiag application starts up, press the Save All Information button in the bottom right and save the report to your desktop. | |

Your GPU is throttling.
Get GPU-Z and check perfcap reason while under load, at the same time check peak temperatures. Having your GPU at 100% is perfectly fine and normal, assuming it's getting enough of both - power and cooling. Tho considering that this isn't CSGO, having it run higher than your monitor's refresh rate is kinda pointless, if you have, say, 144mhz panel, having your gpu run at anything above that in a game like this is pointlessly stressing your card. No rest for the wicked.

@ Ian_GGG
I have the report. How should I get that to you? Via email or by pastebin link? I don't necessarily want all my system info out there... @ Daiena When I'm playing at a solid FPS of between 160 and 190 I'm seeing a PerfCap Reason of Power. This tells me I could probably run better if I plug directly into an outlet as opposed to a power splitter/surge protector. However, when it suddenly drops to anywhere from 7 - 25 FPS the PerfCap Reason switched to Power Thermal. My laptop is supposed to have a thermal cooling system so I'm surprised that's showing as an issue... I will change to direct outlet power and retry the tests. (In addition, why doesn't the system go back to higher FPS after it cools off?) |

@ Daiena
I've plugged directly into an outlet and am experiencing the same issue. Not enough power, yet I have intermittent periods of overheating where the card throttles the FPS down to an avg of 16 FPS. Apparently, after cooling, the FPS does pick back up but only briefly until the card overheats again... Is this a software issue or a hardware issue? I'm supposed to have thermal cooling in my laptop which is apparently not working correctly and if the power supply isn't providing sufficient power that sounds like another hardware issue to me |

Hey GGG,
With league start in less than 24 hours I would REALLY appreciate some help with this issue. I've run lots of tests with other applications and games and have ZERO problems. This clearly has to do with some PoE settings and I would like to get the help needed to get the proper configurations to be able to play the game at at LEAST 30 FPS. Shouldn't be too much to ask... |
