Hello everyone! I've been watching so many YouTube videos of people benchmarking games with the same GPU and CPU combo that I have, and sadly I have nowhere near the same performance. I am not aware of any errors in choosing PC components so I am turning to you in case you have a better opinion. My specs are:
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3080 10GB
CPU: AMD RYZEN 5 5600x
RAM: 2x8GB 3200MHz CL16
MOBO: MSI B450M PRO-VDH PLUS
OS installed on SATA SSD Kingston SKC600 256GB
Games installed on M.2 SSD Kingston SA2000 1TB
I used a 3440x1440 monitor but I switched to 2560x1080 due to not so satisfying results - HOWEVER - I don't even see much gain from the downgrade, the FPS is more or less identical. Knowing that CPUs work better on lower resolutions I expected more performance from lowering resolution but I guess something is limiting me. If you have any idea what I am doing wrong, please tell me, any help is much appreciated!
