I'm on a ryzen 3 3200u with Vega 3 graphics laptop. I have 8gb of dual channel ram and a 240gb ssd. Yes, I know this isn't meant for gaming but hear me out. I'll play L4D2 for example on low, 720p settings. I'll get maybe 70-80 average, but, when a horde of zombies, or even just a couple, come out, I get major dips (70-30 or 20 for example). Maybe I'm overthinking it, but I don't think this should be happening, especially on L4D2.
I've tried the following-
Update windows and drivers.
Reinstall windows and drivers.
Go through AMD settings and tweak everything.
Unlinked the GPU to the CPU.
Change the power settings.
I've also tried CS:GO and it kinda seemed like it was underperforming as well (at least compared to some benchmarks I had seen). I would get maybe 40 or 50 average, then all of a sudden, I would dip to like 20, even if it's a 1v1. These are on low settings 720p as well.
I checked task manager and from what I can tell playing L4D2, everything seemed normal. Cpu was at 30-50. Ram was at 40-50. And gpu was at about 5.
I've been at this for a couple of weeks now, and I don't have a fix yet. I don't know if it's hardware or software related, but at this point, I'm just trying to fix it. So of you can help me, please do. Thanks.
