For some reason no matter what game I play my FPS will only go up to 60.

Now before you ask, yes my monitor is 60hz but this does not mean my computer should be capping my frames at 60 mainly because it hasn’t done this before. I’m thinking of buying a better monitor and I want to know how many frames I can get on certain games. Also in the past I was able to get uncapped fps on my PC and now for some reason its capped.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here’s what I tried:

disabling V-sync In Nvidia Control Panel

Uncapping FPS in Riva Tuner

Made sure V-sync is off and FPS is uncapped in all games

Downloading new drivers

Making sure V-sync isn’t on in program settings in Nvidia Control Panel

Restarting my computer with all these changes applied

    Beyond the Nvidia Control Panel, ensure that any GPU-specific software (like GeForce Experience) isn’t enforcing its own FPS cap. Some overlay applications (like Discord, Steam overlay) can sometimes interfere with game performance.

    Check Whisper Mode is ON or OFF… It reduces the sound of the fan speed but also reduces the performance by capping the FPS

    got a 4k screen, it is capped at 60 fps

    the pc is capable of displaying higher fps, but then I would need a new screen

    Whisper Mode seems to be for laptops and since I am on a desktop probably why cant find it, rivatuner is showing 60 fps

    changed to image scaling @ 77% as that was new to me
