[SOLVED] PC feels like its underperforming

[AngusMcfife124]

Hi, I have a built PC that I feel like is underperforming and I really don't know why. It was a fairly budget build but I still feel like it should perform better. I run most games on medium settings and only get 80-100 fps. I also play a lot of destiny as well and even on the small crucible maps or in the tower I only get around 60-80 fps. I feel like it might be my CPU that's holding it back but that's mostly a guess.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600 3.4 GHz 6-Core Processor
Motherboard: MSI B450 Gaming Plus
Memory: Corsair Vengance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3000 CL15 Memory
Graphics: AMD RX 5600-XT
Here is my list. Thanks in advance for the help.

what resolution are you playing at?

a lot of users don't mind chasing info to other sites. but if you really want the most responses in the quickest time frame, you should post your system specs here in the thread.

Can you run userbenchmark and share the public link to the results.

Yes your system is underperforming. Your RAM is only running at 2133mhz instead of 3000mhz. Go into the bios and turn on DOCP and set it to 3000mhz and then re-test.

It definitely tested better thanks alot for the help a really appreciate it! There is absolutely no way I would have figured it out on my own lol. Im a little confused at why it was even set like that in the first place.

RAM always defaults to base speed. If you have faster rated RAM you need to enable XMP or DOCP. With Ryzen RAM speed really impacts performance, Intel slightly less so.
