Poor performence in port royal benchmark with RTX 2060

[frank30fps]

Any idea what's the problem ?

3800 is what you should be scoring give or take assuming this is a desktop 2060 do you have any Timespy scores?

In timespy i get 8297

Interesting that seems about right... My guess is maybe it's a bug either in the driver or the software have you tried doing a clean install with the latest drivers?

I remember reading somewhere else maybe on the Nvidia forums of someone having this issues specifically in port royal it took a clean install of windows to fix it. I probably wouldn't bother with that unless its actually affecting your performance in games.

Thanks for your answer, I did ddu and install the latest drivers, but I'm too lazy to reinstall windows haha

I'm running the benchmark out of curiosity I can't even remember if I've ever run it before. Don't really care much about rtrt on this gen of GPU maybe the 4080 ti will be worth using it with.


My score seems normal..... Lots of XOC scores though it seems with my setup.

I scored 4 605 in Port Royal

AMD Ryzen 7 2700, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 x 1, 16384 MB, 64-bit Windows 10}

fixed it by using DDU

 

[oxrufiioxo]

So driver bug most likely

 

[frank30fps]

Yeah, but now my clocks won't go to idle

 

[oxrufiioxo]

Random... Do you have prefer maximum power performance set in the Nvidia driver panel and or running multi monitor?

 

[frank30fps]

Yes I do have maximum power in the bios

 

[oxrufiioxo]

What I'm talking about specifically

 

[frank30fps]

Yeah, i set that to max power

Sorry i meant the driver not the bios

 

[oxrufiioxo]

It won't clock down in that scenario. It's usually best to set that on a per app basis imo.

 

[frank30fps]

Ok thanks

Optimal Power is not maximum power. It still uses GPU Boost 3.0 as normal. So its not a fixed clock or voltage in any way and the card will clock down too. Prefer Maximum Performance is closer to maximum power than 'Optimal Power' is. I believe the difference between those is mostly that Prefer Max Perf always tries to go back to maximum voltage whenever there is headroom. If you are thermally constrained, it will do more 'yo-yo'ing' between clocks. If you're not, you can probably extract somewhat higher boost bins.

Still the preferable setting is 'adaptive' because it will use a much wider range of power states depending on the current load. Optimal Power just pushes the highest power state clocks regardless of load and then finds equilibrium and tries to hold it.

The three options are pretty close in practice, especially if you are already thermally limited, but Adaptive is easily the most effective one. Its not a good one for benchmark scores though.

I wasn't asking him about optimal I was asking him about Maximum..... The screenshot was just to show him what I was talking about in general.

Gotcha, I did see some naming confusion (not you) there. Max Power doesn't even exist

Good catch brain fart . I've honestly never had to switch if off optimal so other than reading threads about people having issues never have had any myself.
