    So this webpage wouldn’t let me post for the past couple of days, idk why, but i went over to his house and changed out the thermal paste on the CPU… That brought the temps back down to around 60 C under load. That being said, he is still getting horrible fps in his games. Idk why

      Hey @coolhandluke,

      The post bug is fixed.

      One thing you haven’t mentioned is, how old is this graphics card?

        It’s a 1070, about less than a year old

          Have you tried dropping the Display Res and see what difference.

            Read my post #3 again. All these things result in low performance game benchmarks.
            Could you download “Speccy free” and post an image of the index page, Please.

              To add to what others have stated.

              Does this user user use any torrent software?

              What are the chance that Windows 10 is checking and or downloading updates?

              I am having lag issues with mine downloading and preparing for the new Creators update.

              Did you ever get what Evan has requested?

              On Windows 10 the Virtual Memory setting that Dougie posted, should be set to System Managed Size so let Windows handle this setting as there is little reason to change it.

              Lets make sure there is no corruption in the file system.

              Click Start< type Command Prompt in the Start search box, right click on Command Prompt and click on Run as administrator. After the Command Prompt window opens, type chkdsk C: /r and hit enter. Type Y to confirm that you want to schedule a Check Disk to run on the next restart. After the Check Disk has been scheduled, close the Command Prompt window and reboot the computer to allow Check Disk to run.

              Then lets see what is starting up with your machine.

              Please download Autoruns. After you download the zipped folder on your desktop, right click the zipped folder and click Extract All. After the folder has been extracted open the regular folder. Run the autoruns.exe program by right clicking on it and selecting Run as administrator. When you open the program, click the Logon Tab and then post a screenshot of all the startup entries on the Logon Tab in your next reply.

                ^ not yet, but the person has been gone the past couple of days. I’m going to ask his mom if she can leave teamviewer running one night and I’ll remote in. I didn’t try the virtual memory thing yet.

                To be honest, I was thinking it was the creators update as well, because my pc is on 1703 while his version of Windows is 1600 something. I tried to update his computer but it kept saying up to date. I plan on tryin to download the update tonight and I’ll run the benchmark and check the VM.

                Thanks,

                Luke

                  as for the windows 10, it updated to the creators update and nothing changed.

                    You are getting low FPS because your PC is not strong enough to play the games you are trying to play. Simple.
                    Play games your PC can handle. You want to play these games with high FPS, then build a Computer strong enough.
                    I can’t think of any more tips.

                      I appreciate everything you have suggested so far, but I have built many computers, a lot with crappier specs than his and they run his games a lot better than what he is getting now. I have said this before, his computer was running these games better and then all of a sudden they started tanking in fps, so something is going on… I would be ok with you saying that if he got those frames on all high settings (like 60 fps in H1Z1 on all high settings) but that isn’t the case. He is playing every game on all low settings and his fps is nothing like what it used to be.

                        Here is one way that you can pull the log for CHKDSK to view it. You can also COPY and PASTE the contents from the TXT file into a post.
                        1. Press the Windows + R keys to open the Run dialog, type powershell.exe, and press Enter.
                        2. In PowerShell, copy and paste the command below, and press Enter.

                        get-winevent -FilterHashTable @{logname=“Application”; id=“1001”}| ?{$_.providername –match “wininit”} | fl timecreated, message | out-file Desktop\CHKDSKResults.txt

                        3. CHKDSKResults.txt file will be created on your desktop, that is the log file of your chkdsk scan results from Event Viewer.

                          What would CHKDSK do in this situation. And to answer your quesion before, he doesn’t use any torrenting software. I’ll try the CHKDSK tonight or tomorrow.

                            In post number 9 of this thread an experienced technician asked you to perform 2 diagnostic procedures which to date have been ignored. Perhaps you should take this advice?

                              Thank you for the observation sir, been busy with school and work, will ask the person to download autoruns to the computer and run the chkdsk.

                                Sounds good Luke. I’ll look forward to the results and then I can provide in depth troubleshooting instructions from there.

                                To answer your question about Check Disk have a read through this link, How to Fix Hard Drive Problems with Chkdsk in Windows 7, 8, and 10.
