[SOLVED] 3800XT and ASUS Prime X370-Pro

[jvasquez33]

I'm currently on a ASUS Prime X370-Pro with the bios version 5220 and a 1600x. Will the 3800XT be able to run on the ASUS Prime X370-Pro??

That got me thinking, for strictly gaming (1080p) and the 3800xt.

AMD Ryzen 3800xt
Asus Prime X370
GSkill 3000 16gig
RTX 2070 super

vs

AMD Ryzen 3700x
Asus Prime x570 P
GSkill 3600 32gig
RTX 2070 super

Would a faster clock speed CPU like the 3800xt (4.7 boost clock) out perform a 3700x with faster ram and a newer motherboard?

I would run this setup, getting a new board and ram will not net you the FPS worth the money spent. The 3800xt has about a 4-5% gain over the 3700x or 10-15FPS more, ether one would be perfectly fine for 1080P


My secondary computer runs a
AMD Ryzen 3600x
Asus Prime x570 P
GSkill 3200 16gig
GTX 780 Ti classified

Short of the GPU holding back the computer it runs everything fine. I have swapped in my 2080 ti for testing purposes just to see what it will do.

for the asus 370 at least BIOS 4801 for 3800x.

Good points! Yea few irl friends pretty much said the same thing that buying a new mobo/ram would have been a tiny gain for fps compared to what I have already.

The 3800xt and that 4.7 boost clock will be the way for me. Can't really upgrade anything else without spending more than I would like to so atm. That 3800xt and a RTX 2070 super should be a decent gain (i'd imagine) for games like CoD.

I generally sit in the 100-140 fps range depending on the area with mid to low settings @1080p with this ryzen 1600x @3.9ghz. Hoping with a a 3800xt I could get closer to maintaining a 144 (at least raise the low end fps from 100 to 120 or more!).

Anyways, thank you for the input, much appreciated!

I think im ready for it with the 5220 bios update that im on now.
