Directx weirdness

And what hardware do you have?

3570k
gtx 1070
rest is run of the mill and all HDD's, plenty of ram and running on win7.

And what are your CPU, RAM results and RAM Qty and type?

If your CPU prime number results are down, then maybe it is slow RAM.

My CPU results were fine except for the prime number. I compared it to results from others with the same CPU and it seemed fine.

I have a dual 8GB of DDR3.

Honestly not too fussed about the low prime numbers unless I'm ignorant and that shows some sort of issue. My main concern is the video card results.

I don't know what the cause is. But was taking the holistic approach. If (at least) two things are wrong, then maybe they have the same cause.

I worked out what my problem was.

My card was in a PCIe x8 slot instead of my x16, but that confuses me as to why there was no change in the dx11 result while the others were severely lower.

Maybe it shows an issue with the test or maybe theres an explanation?

Either way thanks for the help and hopefully this helps anyone else who makes the same silly mistake I did.

Ironically, our first answer over a month ago, linked to the solution.

Thanks for following up in any case.
