I just built a new PC with 32gb Ram at 3200mhz and a Ryzen 2700x and whenever I try to run any game it runs worse than my old FX-4300, how do I fix this
ROG STRIX X470-FSome more HW details please. Motherboard, clean windows installation, drivers up to date ? have you checked CPU and GPU frequencies under load ?
I have a MSI Nvidia 1050, the user benchmark says that the CPU score is 27% and is being used in the background 100%.Download and run UserBenchmark.
It will show you how all your hardware is performing.
In particular look at the CPU's speed in the results and maximum boost to check it's running flat out.
I have the same CPU as you and it boosts up to 3.9 GHZ in the benchmark and 4.2 in games.
If your CPU is too hot it will thermal throttle automatically to reduce heat so check it ingame using MSI Afterburner.
Use the OSD settings to show CPU temp and speed in games.
What GPU do you have?

The CPU could also be at 100% usage because it throttles down so far due to heat that anything pushes the CPU far too much.You should see a task listed there which is causing your 100% use.

Your Windows installation is configured for your old system, not your new.I have windows 10 and I'm using the same hard drive that I used on my old computer. It is the most recent version of Windows 10
