buy RAM with higher speed, i5 8600k cpu

[chrisis186]

Hey i have a i5 8600k cpu @ 3.60Ghz // gtx 1070 Ti 8gb. // 32gb 2400mhz ddr4 ram. (8gbx4) // motherboard= ASUSTeK Z370-P
My question is will upgrading to 3000Mhz ddr4 ram increase game performance and maybe also fix fps drop problem in games like Rust ? i am not thinking of overclocking my regular RAM cause it may cause blue screens etc. let me know!

What is the make and model of your motherboard? If it isn't a Z series chipset anything above 2400MHz or a 2666MHz ram kit will be locked at the frequency's I just mentioned.

i have contacted the ones that sold me this computer that a 3000mhz should fit with my motherboard. i know though that i have to go into bios when upgrading ram and fix XMP setting

3000mhz ram will work with that motherboard but that will not affect performance the way you expect it would. In fact you'd likely not even notice the difference.

You should focus on the games you have to find your issue. o you have FPS problems in all games or just Rust? Rust has some optimization issues from what i know.

I don't think ram speed would solve your issue.

you'd better off getting a good CPU cooler and oc your CPU. I think z370-p is a budget option z370 board, so you may have to zip tie a 7mm fan over the vrm heatsink to cool the vrms.

ok thanks for your answers. about fps drops it is just in Rust and also in Legends of Aria but these are not well optimized games

Neither are well optimized, and both are online. I'd look to your internet connection, or connection to their servers as your issue.

 

[chrisis186]

If it is my internet connection or connection to the server how do i fix that problem and how do i detect it?

use speedtest.net to test your speed. If your speed is poor and doesn't compare to what your internet provider says, call them.

As for connection to the game, some games have a connection test option, I don't play either game so I can't tell you further on that.

here is a screenshot of ethernet. i think this is what causes the lag? https://imgur.com/bfvAkIW

 

[chrisis186]

on speedtest.net my speed is OK

Is that during gaming?

 

[chrisis186]

I think that it is the ethernet because when i have a lag the ethernet jumps to max
Yes it is during the game

Here is the pic of Ethernet on task manager again= https://imgur.com/bfvAkIW
I removed my IP address

Well thats your internal network speed, and it looks fine. Ethernet is jumping like that because its waiting for outside data. Either the game or your network service.

Can you share your speedtest results?

It should be 100/100 but it is now lower probably because im playing Rust at the same time
I usually have 90/90ish on speedtest

However everyime i get a lag the Ethernet jumps to max. so it must be the Ethernet?

Again, not necessarily. Thats most likely a symptom not a cause.

Are there any OTHER online games you play that does not have such lag?

CS GO, Path of Exile, Black Dessert Online, Ring of Elysium does not have these fps drops but some other online games has some small fps drop but nothing in the range of Rust or Legends of Aria. Albion Online, Runescape and Fallen Earth has some small fps drops. so some games work good others not so good

So that tells me its the game. I would contact their tech support.

 

[chrisis186]

Yeah okay thanks

 

[Rogue Leader]

Yeah okay thanks

Not sure what the tongue is supposed to mean in this case, but its clear based upon the information you've given that you have no hardware problems, nor is your internet service to blame. The best place to get help is the developer of the game.

 

[chrisis186]

It means nothing special. like a "funny" face. i didnt know the smiley would look like that . thanks for your time though. yeah Rust is known for its fps drop so im not the only one. and Legends of Aria as well is very badly optimized still however some ppl still dont experience these fps drop also in Rust

No problem hopefully they can get the game fixed up for you
