Hi, about my problem: somehow my computer is very haklich and slow in games and outside. Have pulled all the updates and updated all drivers etc!

About my hardware:

CPU: Intel Core i7 4790 @ 3.60 Ghz

GPU: AMD Radeon R9 200 Series -. Vapor-X

Motherboard: Asus Maximus VII Hero

RAM: 16GB Corsair

Power supply: 750 Watt Corsair

Operating system: Windows 10

Have a picture of any data somehow I do not look right there can it be that something with the setup or similar is not true?

Is everything right, with my CPU Intel Core i7-4790

Thanks for your reply in advance, please also comments that help to get something out of the system.

As well as eg. In Fortnite! Everything low, CPU is at full load and the GPU chill always on so 5% utilization?

The CPU should still be able to do that. Even things like Fortnite are no problem.

So I'm surprised that the GPU and Fortnite chill. Is the monitor connected to the graphics card or the motherboard?
This would explain why the CPU is running at maximum when the integrated graphics card is fully utilized.

This looks like HyperThreading is inactive and only 2 out of 4 cores are active.

The i7 4790 should be a 4-core, so I would expect minimum core # 0 - # 3 here.

Would look in this regard times in the BIOS, whether here cores have been disabled.

Looks not so bad.

CPU reaches full measure.

Thus, I would have RAM or HDD / SSD as suspects that bring your system to a halt.

What does your GPU say?

St

Is of course connected to the Graka the monitor

Accidentally clicked on "not helpful" sorry.
But also in Windows under system configuration all 4 cores enabled funny. How exactly do I look for should I reset the bios? And what exactly do you mean by HyperThreading greetings

Ga

Is striking, have not looked at the picture yet. But actually only Core 0 and 1 without HT.

St

The GPU chills imme in under 10% range even in games like Fortnite and the CPU for full load a mom try to upload a picture of the data regarding the GPU second.

HyperThreading is an Intel feature that allows you to pass 2 threads to a core. This is also configured in the BIOS. If this were active, 8 kernels would have to be displayed in the Task Manager.
Each BIOS is different, in the manual for your motherboard should stand, as you get A) into the BIOS and B) where you can enable / disable the cores there.

Ga

Maybe look at the Task Manager, it should show at least all kernels.

Or CPU-Z.

Here is my overview of the Task Manager:

That is really unusual. There are indeed only 2 cores active, it should be twice as many.

St

Well, so I'm just going to look in bios to set if possible, first everything back to standard and see that all cores "4" and hyperthreading is active? Regards

ly

That would be ideal, yes. 4 cores / 8 logical processors should be displayed at the end of the task manager.

St

I'll get in touch with you in a few minutes, but thanks for the quick reply

Ga

Of course, this is not so natural, many are wrong.
I'm curious what will become of the other solution approach of ZaoDaDong.

If that does not work, go into the msconfig and reset the setting with the 4 cores! Then he should have all 4 cores again.

Ga

But also in Windows under system configuration all 4 cores enabled funny.

According to a forum contribution in the PCGH forum is exactly there the error.

Link to this is under my answer.

The few minutes are now over.
