I built a PC 2 years ago, and I have been dealing with a multitude of issues with this build, and as a last ditch effort before selling and re-building, I am looking for any insight as to why I struggle to get 60 frames in a lot of games, even at low settings (Pubg, rise of the tomb raider, Escape from tarkov, bf4, bf1, etc)
Build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/39j4xY (memory listed here has been changed!)
CPU : Ryzen 7 1700
GPU : EVGA GeForce 1060 6GB SSC
Mobo : MSI B350 Tomahawk ATX Am4 Motherboard
Memory : Corsair Vengeance LPX 2x8GB DDR4 DRAM 3200MHz
( https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B0143UM4TC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 )
Cooler : Corsair H60
PSU: EVGA 650W W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-modular ATX Power Supply
Additionally:
- mobo was flashed to latest update about 1.5 years ago
- CPU overclocked to 3.6 originally, decided to stop OC'ing because the improvement was minimal, back to 3.0
- mobo will not tell me CPU temps. not sure why, but since day one, even with third party software, the temps remain blank or inaccurate
Since day one I was always under-whelmed with the performance of this build with gaming. Maybe one of the parts is a lemon, but I don't know where to pinpoint the issue/what I would replace. If you need any other information, let me know. This was a very expensive build, around $2200 CAD, so any help is really appreciated.
Thanks,
Ryan
