[SOLVED] Just finished a build and games are running slower than laptop

[carter.hinson1638]

I just got into PC building and i just finished mine and got windows 10 and everything running but when i launch GTA 5 (First game i downloaded) it ran slower than my old piece of crap laptop (around 16 gps) . I don't know bios well but i made sure all the basics were right but yet my game is still running at 16 fps which i KNOW my system should do better than that. I know this is very vague but i cant find anything on you tube to help me so i figured i would come here. I'm not sure if i somehow didnt plug something in, or if i missed some driver update (even though my PC is all up to date) need any and all help i can get. New to this whole thing

what resolution?
latest bios?
make and model of the psu?
download from epic or steam?
cpu/gpu temp and usage during the game?
ram/ssd/hdd usage?

Nothing obviously wrong with the parts list (to me anyway).
Can you go here: https://www.userbenchmark.com/ , download and run the benchmark, and post the results?

dont know how to check that during a game or the usage of those things (new to this)

Make sure XMP is turned on, and you are using the latest drivers, from AMD. Ram is a bit slow, for a Ryzen rig. Really should be using at least 3200 speed ram.
