Gpu load spikes in Unigine Heaven 4 - on Asus Strix 980 Ti

[sde444]

Hello. Yesterday i bought my new Asus Strix 980 Ti Oc. All is ok i think. But on Unigine Heaven 4.0 i have gpu load drops between scenes. Its going from 99% randomly to 50% or 10% and go again up to 99%. Is this normal? I am using Psu Corsair 750 RM.
I saw on youtube clips with other users on 980ti\980 and they dont have this drops.


I am on Windows 10 Pro x64 with SSD disk Samsung Evo 250 gb

Hello sde444

Between scenes the gpu is not under load so gpu usage should drop but on entering the next scene the gpu usage goes to 99% this sounds normal to me.

ANd sometimes in different places in benchmark gpu usage drops , sometimes not. It can be related to benchmark not card?

When running benchmarks make sure you have v-sync disabled.

How does your scores compare with others?

Fps are ok, so i think score will be normal. That gpu usage drops are randomly in the same areas in benchmark. Sometimes it will drop to 50 % or lower sometimes not. I observed the same gpu usage drops with many other peoples on youtube. So i guess its normal?
