Hey guys, so I just upgraded my GPU from 1060 3GB to 1070 8GB. However, I seem to be getting roughly the same performance; I used 2 games as reference; Assassin's Creed Syndicate and Far Cry 5. I was kind of hoping to get at least 15-20 extra fps.
The specs of my pc are i5 7400 3.0ghz and 8 gb ram. Bottleneck?
Your swiss cheese incel cpu. Buy a cheap AM4 mobo and a ryzen 3600.

Far cry 5 is badly optimized same with asscreed.

AMD shills are trying to dab on you, but your CPU isn't bad enough to bottleneck this unless you're playing on stupid low resolutions. You should always get better performance with that 1070. What resolution are you playing at, and what FPS were you getting before and now?

I understand that these games don't have the greatest optimization and my cpu is bottlenecking my card's performance, but does this mean that the GPU upgrade was entirely pointless? Will EVERY game have the same performance as my previous card?

I bought 1080 a long time ago for over a grand and I hardly use it for gaming because the games are not fun as browsing Jow Forums reading threads like this about this upgraded from a 1060 to a 1070..I need a 2080 and 4k atleast to see anything new with gaming. Both of those games are average to say the least..I need more for some reason..I think the bottleneck is people making gore threads.

1080p on all
Ass Creed one wavers between 50-75 (on High) with the new card, same as before.
Far Cry 5's benchmark averages 80ish fps, but there are some significant drops to low 50s during actual gameplay. (on Ultra)
