Ubuntu

Poor Graphics Performance

Asked by Christopher

It seems after I installed the nVidia driver 375.39, I suffer from poor performance. In CS:GO I usually get around 150 frames per second (FPS) in game but now I get 9-11 FPS, even while sitting in the main menu. I install through the Additional Drivers tab on Software & Updates. Ubuntu is installed on my SSD.

PC: CybertronPC GM1213B
Processor: AMD FX-4350
GPU: nVidia Geforce GTX 970
RAM: 32 GB
Hard Drive: PNY CS1311 120GB SSD

I tried running:

sudo apt autoremove nvidia* --purge
# Followed by re-installing through Additional Drivers

sudo dpkg-reconfigure

Any ideas what's going on?

Lastly, I found these error messages when running "nvidia-settings". Not sure if it's relevant but I'm posting this here anyway.

Revision history for this message
Christopher (sccman) said : 		#6

I posted the information. Also since the last time I posted I manually installed version 367. I noticed that nvidia-settings version 367 installs when I install 375. Not sure if that would also be a concern. Works perfectly fine when I install 367.

Best actionparsnip (andrew-woodhead666) said : 		#7

Then why not use the 367 driver?

Revision history for this message
Christopher (sccman) said : 		#8

It'll work. There's not much of a difference between 367 and 375.

This is more of a question than a bug, but how would I uninstall my 367 drivers in the future? I may need to update them in the future. They're installed manually and I can't change the drivers under Additional Drivers.

Thanks actionparsnip, that solved my question.
