Battlefield 1 with Radeon RX 480

[RUSTY_225]

I bought the Radeon RX 480 to play battlefield 1 on. From what i have heard ( and have seen ) this graphics card is supposed to run the game ( and beta ) at 60+ fps on ultra settings. So when i heard that i purchased the Saphire 8gb Radeon RX 480. After installing it and running the game, i have max 35 fps... on low settings. I have tweaked all the features in the game and looked into the radeon settings. I cant seem to figure out the problem so if you know a solution PLEASE let me know. i was really excited to play the beta and now i dont even know if i can run the game. I dont want to waste money on the game if i cant run it. ):

My PC specs:
GPU: Radeon RX 480 (8gb)
CPU: AMD A10 7850K
RAM: 8gb ( i have recently bought 8 more so i will gave 16 gb soon)

Your CPU is bottlenecking, unfortunately. That card really needs an i3 6100 or better.

Are you sure you aren't using your integrated graphics?

Check your CPU usage using Task Manager while playing. It's either your CPU or maybe Radeon hasn't updated their drivers for it yet (I know some Radeon card users having trouble with the game). Your RX 480 should be able to run it way easier (my GTX 750ti is running it ~50-60FPS on medium @ 1050p)

Oke, make sure you put the hdmi/dvi cable in your rx 480, it sounds like it running the game from the igpu on the AMD A10 7850K which is equal to a r7 250 and that would explain the performance.

Also check the cpu usage, using MSI afterburner, it could also be your cpu bottlenecking the rx 480, even high end i5's are running at 100% playing this game so keep that in mind.

i just disabled my integrated graphics and im still having same issues as before. I will try other options but thanks for the help! I know its not integrated graphics for sure now.

As others say, your CPU might be an issue, see how much it's being used in BF1.

Also take note of your graphics settings in BF1. Be aware that 50% resolution scale is native to your screen. at 100% scaling, you're rendering twice as much as you should and it will be slow.

When you turn you graphic settings on high do you still get 35 fps? If that's the case then your cpu is bottlenecking the rx 480.

i checked the task manager and bf1 is only using 50% of my CPU, is that the issue?

Weird, I would expect it to hit 100%.
Perhaps the issue is elsewhere?

Doing ALT+TAB is not the best way to measure cpu usage while gaming, you need to run MSI afterburner, can you run it? it's very easy to use.

And can you put the settings on high or ultra, does that change the fps? or does it stay at 35?

no the fps never changed BUT i did download the msi afterburner and my cpu is running at 100% so i would have to get a new motherboard and cpu to play it. Thanks for the help guys!

 

[hdgaming]

yes, if the fps stayed the same while playing on low or high that means a cpu bottleneck
