performance issues

[Stenslaen]

I feel like my pc is underperforming in games, i dont think i have a bad pc setup but maybe not top nodge for gaming.
for example in csgo, a month ago i had STRIX-GTX980TI-DC3OC-6GD5-GAMING gpu and ran the game around 170-200 fps on low settings with 1280x960 resolution, now i have ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3090 OC Edition 24GB GDDR6X and nothing have changed.

Adding photos of my settings and hardware.

Any help is very much appreciated =)

First GJ on that 3090.
Second. Well Threadripper 1st gen isn't very good for gaming. And as you said after upgrade you didn't notice any improvement. I betcha you are CPU bottleneck. CS:GO is heavy CPU game so if you would have something like 10900k or 5900x it would be better. You can download MSI afterburner Let it be on background and play some match with bots then go check your CPU and GPU utilization (Usage) and i would bet your GPU would be low and CPU high. Watch this video for little bit https://youtu.be/u4dwmyS8Dl4?t=748 (12:28-13:05)

This doesnt change that CS:GO is CPU heavy game but, you can apply this to most games
Lower resolution = High CPU usage / Low GPU usage
High resolution = Lower CPU usage / Higher GPU usage

Thank you
Ahh i understand. Well, nothing to say besides poor choice of cpu by me then :/

What KotOr368 said is 100% corrects when it comes to CPU and GPU.

This is my opinion on storage, If I were you I would get rid of any HDDs and SATA SSDs and use PCIe NVME SSDs only. You can get three 2TB 970 EVO NVMe SSDs with a total of 6TB. Utilize the DIMM.2 and the onboard NVMe PCIe port. This would allow all three storage devices to have direct connection to the CPU (bypassing the Chipset). Sometimes having a lot of internal storage devices can have an effect on performance.

I have 3 nvme drives and the rest is ssd. I have 1 external old drive where i copy all the stuff that i absolutely dont want to loose nomatter what
Yeah im having a new issue as well, something makes either my games crash all the time. But it's not allways the same thing. Sometimes it's the game, gpu driver, network card and so on. i Cant figure out what it is. Everything started when i was formatting every disk on the pc, i used to use samsung magician and Over-Provisioning on all the disks, i did not turn that off before i ereased the hard drives, and i used something from a site called parted magic.
After that i lost 10% of the storage on every disk, cant find it in disk managament, tried different software but nothing, BUT after that i have not managed to play one single day without something allways going wrong, crashes, bluescreen and so on. All the good stuff.
I fear that i have ****ed up all my drives because of that.
Maybe i just have to buy a new disk, remove every single one of the old ones and hope for the best?
