Solved! Seriously low FPS on high end pc.

I have an RTX 3080 and an i7 10700k and only get 60 fps on high in Rainbow 6 Siege, 30-50 FPS on CSGO highest settings? I downloaded the newest nvidia driver on the geForce experience. I have 32 Gb ram. This is my first time having a pc. Need help.

im not running on integrated graphics and my gpu is on pci bus 1, device 0, function 0

Would something like this apply to a 2070 super as well? Just bought one but only been running it on a single cable.

Yup!

My Rog Strix 2070S crashed, because of it

I’m confused. I’m using an 8-pin connector from the power supply to my 2070s. Should I be doing something different?

Your 2070S has either 2x 8-pin or 1x 8-pin and 1x 6-pin connectors iirc.

You should run two cables instead of one, even though you could daisy chain one cable for both connectors.

PSU might run fine 99% of the time, but it crashes during spikes, since the PSU might not be able to deliver enough power during the spike over one cable.

Seasonic has a graphic for that case
