Specs:
MSI X570 Pro-A Motherboard
Ryzen 5 3600
32 GB RAM
PNY GeForce RTX 3060 Ti
I built this system about 3 years ago. At the time it had an EVGA GTX 1070 installed. I overclocked the CPU and GPU, you can see the results in the pic. It has been rock solid ever since. Recently I decided to run the Passmark performance test again just because I hadn't done it since it was built. The 3D Graphics Mark was in the 11,xxx area, not the 15,xxx it had been. I disabled the overclock and still got a score in the 11,XXX. I noticed the CPU Mark was down a bit too from or original score. I bought the 1070 used so I though maybe it was failing and since I was thinking of upgrading any way I bought a (used) RTX 3060 Ti and installed that. I was expecting scores in the 19,xxx range but got 15,xxx. I completely uninstalled the nvidia drivers using Display Driver Uninstaller and did a clean install of just the drivers, not the Experience part. Same result. The only changes made since the original build is an added second 1TB NVMe SSD and a 32" Viewsonic 1440p monitor 75hz. I ran the test with the 1070 still installed on the 1080p monitor it was originally done on and still got 11,xxx. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
