GPU Underperforming after awhile, why?
Posted by UnderstandingOdd398@reddit | buildapc | View on Reddit | 3 comments
Bought a new RTX 2060 SUPER a couple while ago, quickly tested it on 3DMark using Time Spy and i got around 7600 to 7800 (with graphic's score of 8700 ish)
However, recently i tried benchmarking again cus ive been getting sub-par performance on Crimson Desert (dropping to mid 20s and unplayable with RT ON, Medium) And i got 6600 score with graphics score of 7300 on 3DMark which is abysmal in my opinion.
My question is, is that still in the normal range? or is something wrong with my windows settings/drivers? I tried reverting to an older driver which did raise me up to 7600 again once, but benchmarking it the next day got me back to 6700 (tried DDU'ing and reinstalling that same driver and im still stuck at 6700ish this time).
Temps are all in-check (GPU is still under 80 celcius on the test) so im not sure what the issue is, going to try reinstalling windows after this to see if it helps. And no my CPU temps and clocks are identical on both tests so i dont think its my CPU.
Here's my 3DMark tests back then (January)

I cant figure out whats going on and its driving me crazy. Any help is appreciated thanks.

20-series GPUs aren't really good with RT performance.
Turn it off.

Yup i did leave it off everytime i play cus thats the only way i get a playable framerate, however even with RT off im not getting the same frames as others that uses the low settings with RTX 2060 Super, and i confirmed it with my 3D Mark benchmark (my score being lower than average) So im trying to find out why, CPU seems to be working fine but my graphics score is lower than most

A xx60 series card right now still has low performance on RT titles a 4 generations old 60 card should never have RT turned on,
Crimson desert is a fairly intensive game especially for cards 4 generations old.
Turn off RT and check performance.
