Question I5 12400f 3070 Bad Fps

[PleaseHelpWithPc]

Just updated to the latest bios update and i also redownloaded windows.
Here is the benchmark: https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/6580613 i get bad fps like 100 unstable in fortnie with low settings. Updated my Drivers too. I bought this pc used for 1 year.

You linked a userbenchmark for a PC with an i5-7500 and a GTX 1060.

The PC has a single dimm of ram. That's a no-no these days. Fix that first, then try again.
A)Buy another dimm. [Not guaranteed to work.]
B)Buy a 2 dimm kit. [Generally recommended step.]

is there no other way? im getting 80-130 fps in fortnie on lowest settings. i have configured nvidia control panel and everything. My friend who has like a 1660 or something gets better fps than me and his cpu is also worse.

No, there isn't. This is a physical issue, that takes priority over any potential software/driver, or other misconfigured settings.
The cpu and ram work as a pair, and by running the system in single channel mode, the cpu's memory bandwidth is almost halved.
Kinda like the cpu is running with part of its brain turned off, or perhaps doing one of those 3-legged races with partners of noticeably different heights.

what does this mean? Are you trying to say theres no other thing i can do other than upgrading to 2x16gb of ram? Sorry im not good with pc stuff.

Simply put, yes. Nothing else is going to get around the single dimm, which was OK for much older titles and some emulators. Fortnite isn't one of them.

i was just playing and i also just realized that i am also randomly going to 60 fps for no reason. Is this the same issue?

I can't infer anything from that...

Look at the utility of each cpu core. You can use hwinfo(summary only) or Afterburner(you'll have to manually select each core in the monitoring settings). All it takes is a single core to be maxing out to hit the limit of performance.

Here is what its looking like:

The first 2 screenshots are taken at 149 and 197 fps respectively.
The other 2 are?

yes it can go up to 200 but it always spikes i just cant get a picture of it. With my same specs other people do not get this type of fps they get 300+ stable. I have all low settings.

You all have to have the exact same specs - including that single dimm config - as well as software and drivers installed, and control panel/eye candy settings.

All low settings usually puts all the work on the cpu+ram.

Since it's too fast to pick up, use hwinfo(sensors only). You will be able to see display current, minimum, maximum, and averages.

Fix what shows not only do you have single channel ram but you also have low speed ram.
Shop for a 2x8GB/2x16GB kit @ 3200 speed.
