[SOLVED] Better performance with a computer that's just as good

[Magmacream187]

My friend has a computer that's very similar to mine other than a few differences. I can't even run games like Destiny 2 or Division 2, however he can get good fps on max settings which makes me think there is something wrong with my computer. Temps are good, and everything is running at base clocks.

you only got 1 stick of ram. no ssd.
what the make and model of the psu?

Some kind of rose will 500

Would that make that much of a difference?

Memory runs better when in dual channel but both of you would benefit from 3000 to 3200MHz of RAM in 2x8GB config. considering your RAM amount there could be a lot of memory swapping to HDD which is considerably slower than his SSD.

I know but eouldall

All right but would all of that cause a difference of being able to run a game at max to not being able to run the game at all?

They are only similar in socket,the few differences are pretty big ones,like having dualchannel or not, a quadcore cpu vs a 6core/twelve thread cpu and even ssd or not.

See in your results as well that you have alot of ram in use when benchmarking. If the same when gaming will that have impact as well.


Have the latest bios? (not always the best one with certain AMD boards and need to keep an eye out for extra things that need to be done before updating like updating chipset drivers first or updating to an in between bios so read instructions before doing it!)

Cool, I just didnt know all of that would make a difference between being able to run a and game on max to not at all

Especially for the division 2 I can testify,you need that 8Gb to be free to be able to play the game without huge lags.

Yeah but he only has 8 gigs as well

As do I,that's why I can testify,I have to close down anything that sucks up mem to keep it from stuttering really badly.

Got it. Thanks
