Question How to make my system run smoother, it feels a bit off.

[ClassV]

Hi, I'm basically at a spot where I'm really happy with my system components and final build, but feel like sometimes it's just not necessarily outputting what it could be. I could be wrong but I'll go into further detail following the specs:

XFX Speedster MERC310 7900 XTX
AMD R7 7800X3D
(2x16) 32 GB TeamGroup T-Force Delta RGB 6000MHz CL30 RAM
ASRock X670E PRO RS ATX
MSI MAG CoreLiquid E360 Liquid Cooler
EVGA B5 850W
1x WD SN805x
4x WD SN770
Corsair 3500X Case
10x Case fans

I run games generally at 4k and sometimes scale them down to 1440p. My Main monitor is MSI G321CU 32" 16:9 Curved 1500R Gaming Monitor, 4k, 144Hz 1ms, 3840 x 2160 (UHD), FreeSync, and I run it alongside 2 1080p monitors for a 3 monitor setup. I haven't gone much into tinkering the computer overall, but keep drivers updated as frequently as possible while trying to lower the amount of tasks on startup and in the background consistently. Just looking for any tips or ideas essentially, as I feel some games don't run as they should, but I understand regardless of my specs I am still demanding a lot. Also temperatures are consistently good so nothing has been overheating.

It usually comes down to the game's optimization on Radeon GPUs.

Some games are more optimized towards Nvidia GPUs and others more towards Radeon GPUs (depending what game devs felt or what contracts they had during development). So, you, yourself, can't do anything about it.

Overall, far bigger chunk of all games are optimized towards Nvidia GPUs, than Radeon GPUs. So, if you want to "fix it", i suggest you replace your GPU to Nvidia one. E.g RTX 5090 with nice 1.2kW or 1.6kW PSU to go along with it, would do nicely.

Are all monitors the same refresh rate?

No they aren't. My main monitor is MSI 32 inch144 hz 4k, my second is LG 144hz 27 inch 1080p, and my 3rd is Samsung 32 inch 75Hz

That's a fair point, but especially with the market I'm not necessarily looking to change it out. Also, it seems to happen regardless if the title is AMD or Nvidia optimized, and I feel like overall productivity performance could be better aside from gaming.

And you're trying to use all these monitors together?

Yeah I've been running 3 monitors for the past 4 years through different setups, although the 4k was an addition last year to take advantage of my XTX

That's asking a lot for pretty much any GPU!
