Question FPS Drop every 10/15 seconds.

[valenn23101]

Hi everyone.
When I play videogames, when it past like 5 minutes playing, the FPS drops every 15 seconds average.
In Red Dead Redemption 2 i got 70/80 FPS avg, the GPU temperatures reachs 70°C max (with 90/100% usage) and CPU 50°C max (with 30/50% usage), and every 15 seconds the FPS drops to 30/40.
In another games (like CSGO or Valorant it doesn't happen), I don't know what happen, drivers are update, I use Windows 11.
My PC: CPU Ryzen 7 5700G, GPU RX 570, RAM Corsair 16GB 2400MHz, PSU 550W Corsair, M2 1TB Kingston.

RAM Corsair 16GB 2400MHz

Single or Dual channel? Frame time inconsistency is to be expected for Ryzen at sub 3200C16 either way though, really. You could try framerate lock to 60fps and see if the frame time improves. There's FRTC for AMD but if you just want to try a quick dirty check you can use Radeon Chill just on Red Dead Redemption 2 to limit to 60 minimum and maximum. Mind you if you use FRTC, it applies GLOBALLY, including in games where you dont want it like aforementioned Valorant and CSGO.

Thank u for the answer.
I have single channel DDR4 2400MHz RAM, recently i noticed this metrics:

Recently I tried another game, Dying Light.
I took 2 screenshots, one is when it's going good and the another is when the FPS drops, I can see how the GPU frequency drops to the minimum (300MHz):

I don't know what do :/

I have single channel

Yeah, about to be expected. Modern system needs Dual Channel for the best frame time in gaming. You can search a lot of benchmark on it but you're basically losing 10-20% of your 1% and .1% lows, the lowest of low the framerate goes sometimes when it happens.

Also the frequency behavior does match modern GPU behavior and I wouldn't rule it in as the problem just yet.

Can you show screenshots from CPU-Z - motherboard, memory, spd sections ?
Do you have single 16GB ram module or 2x8GB modules installed?

I have single module of ram, one stick of 16gb.

CPU-Z:

Wrong screenshot. Show motherboard, memory and spd sections.
You're showing cpu section from CPU-Z.

Upgrade ram to dual channel kit
2x8GB 3200mhz DDR4 or
2x16GB 3200mhz DDR4.

Currently you have single channel 2400mhz ram.
This impacts performance significantly on Ryzen systems.

Not 2x16 2400mhz DDR4?

No you'll likely want 3200hmz. The fastest timings you can afford. GSKILL flare X 3200mhz CL14 would be ideal if you can find it cheap enough.

Well, I do the change, 2x8GB 3200MHz, nothing changes...

 

[Kona45primo]

That's unfortunate,assuming you enabled XMP/DOCP in bios?

how much are 5700xt gpu's, affordable? Might be the next step.

Speaking of Bios are you on the latest bios for your motherboard?

Yea, I got XMP profile enabled at 3200MHz.
I think my next buy will be a RX 6700XT or RTX 3060.
I recently updated the BIOS, nothing changes.

 

[Kona45primo]

Either of those should be a significant boost, the 5700xt should be pretty close to the 3060 at a significant discount if you can find a good deal
