Hi guys so i upgraded to a Ryzen 1600 from an I5 4570 few weeks ago.
i hadn't really been playing any demanding games until recently.
So a few days ago i decided to fire up GTA V when i got into gameplay it was running at 25fps i thought that was odd so i checked the graphical settings they were set to ultra i turned them down to medium i also switched off shadows AA FXAA post processing ect i restarted the game & only got about a 15 frame increase to 40 i tinkered around with the settings a bit longer then fired up MSI afterburner to check if it could've been a bottleneck.
Nope my GPU (RX 480) was being fully utilised the only thing that i thought looked odd is that all the cores were between 40% & 20% usage.
Next i tried Battlefield 4 this ran better but the FPS were inconsistent & the game ran a bit choppy (sometimes) & the GPU was at 100% usage so no bottleneck ( i hope )
Next i tried Skyrim SE & Cities Skylines these were both unplayable.
skyrim was running below 30fps & was juddering constantly Skylines was barely running at 20fps on medium & was extremely choppy.
I updated my graphics drivers changed Windows to high performance mode overclocked my CPU to 3.8ghz (ryzen master) changed my motherboard settings high performance mode as well that didn't help either
I nudged the frequency on my 2x8 GB of corsair vengeance from 2666 to 2800 & that helped a tiny bit
I ran some tests on Cinebench & the results looked fine was scoring higher than a 3930k score was about 1159
( I'll check when i get home)
My 4570 performed a lot better than this
( in gaming at least)
Have i missed something here or did i just lose out on the CPU.
Any help is appreciated.
