Question My RX 6600 XT is giving me 10-30% less FPS compared to my friends RTX 2060S ?

[Vendetta975]

My RX 6600 XT is getting 10-30% less fps compared to my friends RTX2060S, and as far as I know my card should be performing better than the RTX card. In Apex Legends I am getting around 140-210 FPS on all low settings compared to my friends 250-300 FPS, and in Valorant I am getting around 180-300 FPS compared to my friend's 300 average. My FPS also falls short in other games.

PC Specs
MotherBoard: Gigabyte B760M D3HP
CPU: I5-12400F
GPU: RX 6600 XT
RAM-I have 2 different brand sticks, one Transcend 3200mhz and one Kingston 2666mhz.
Neither of them support XMP. and yes I have them in dual channel.
SSD-Patriot P300 NVMe 512GB
PSU-DeepCool DN500 500w

I was expecting way better performance with this GPU and I am kind of disappointed 🙁

Yea in the Bus Interface it is running at PCIe 4.0 x8. Could there be something wrong in the settings for the cpu?

Check that your GPU drivers are set to performance the same for windows power settings, also make sure that the min for the CPU is set to 100% to make sure it doesn't slow down.
Have you looked up how much power the CPU uses? It might be locked to below what the CPU can do.

Put this to high performance

Put this to 100%

I have it enabled at 100%

He said the exact same thing as you. Why the condescendance?

When OP asked clearly if PSU would cause any other problems to the PC and answer to it was: No, it won't., then this is a bad advice.

Moreover: If your PSU is a bottleneck, you'll come into a blackout when stressing your GPU&CPU together. is sugarcoating + then some.
Good/great quality PSUs, yes, can handle PSU overload and shut the system down without damage to other components. However, OP doesn't have a good PSU. Crap quality PSUs, when overloaded, make a "pop", release magic smoke and most likely fry everything they are connected to. And at this point, it doesn't matter how much FPS build should produce when PC is dead.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

RAM-I have 2 different brand rams, one transcend and one kingston. Kingston(2666mhz) Transcend(3200mhz) none of these support xmp. and yes I have them in dual channel.
This is where you're losing out on performance from your build, you should be on a dual channel, tight latencied DDR4-3200MHz ram kit, instead of mixing and matching(which is the same as working with two different sized tires on your car). You didn't even mention your ram capacity.

MotherBoard-B760M D3HP
What BIOS version are you on for your motherboard?

PSU-DeepCool DN500 500w
Horrible unit, replace immediately.

I was expecting way better performance with this card and I am kind of disappointed
Sort out what I've mentioned above, then use DDU to remove all GPU drivers(Intel, Nvidia and AMD) in Safe Mode, then manually install the latest GPU driver sourced from AMD's support site in an elevated command and you should be in better waters.

Hello sir, little recap about the situation. So i got the corsair vengeance lpx 2x16 3200mhz ram kit and I didnt change my psu, not yet atleast and it didnt seem to fix the problem I was having, I want to know is there anything else that might be causing this much performance loss? I appreciate every kind of help provided by you or anyone else, thanks🙂

A little recap about the situation, so i got the corsair vengeance lpx 2x16 3200mhz ram and replaced it ofc, also I didnt change my psu, not yet atleast but this change didnt seem to fix my problem. I also updated my bios version from F4 to the newer F5. Could there be anything else thats causing this much performance loss?

Please don't bump your own thread! You should be patient for responses from the community as they chime in on their own free time and will.

You're looking for an excuse to ruin your PC so you can buy a new computer. At least that's what it looks like, when you're not interested in replacing the PSU to something that's reliably built.
