Hi all!
I am sorry if I am asking this in a wrong place but I can't get my head around something and was wandering if I am doing something wrong. System spec for reference.
CPU: Ryzen 3 2200G 3.5Ghz
GPU: SAPPHIRE PULSE RADEON RX 570 4G GDDR5 DUAL HDMI / DVI-D / DUAL DP OC W/BP (UEFI)
MOBO: Gigabyte GA-AB350M-DS3H V2, AM4, DDR4 3200, USB 3.1, DVI-D/HDMI
PSU:Silverstone ATX PSU SST-ET550-B, 550W 80 Plus Bronze, Low Noise 120mm
RAM: Patriot Viper Elite DDR4 8GB KIT (2X4GB) 2800MHZ CL16-16-16-36 RED
SSD Kingston 240GB
I have recently built a new budget gaming PC (first one for me). Everything is okay, the system runs, however I have a few issues about OC and FPS in games.
Some things that I have done is I have enable XMP profile in BIOS so that my Ram runs at 2800Mhz as I know that Ryzen CPUs like memory. All I did is changes the profile. I have updated all my drivers as well to make sure everything is up to date as well.
Any insights will be useful as I would like my system to run nicely I know it is not expensive built and I can't expect a lot but you can see from the example given that I am definitely doing something wrong. If you need any more info just ask I am happy to provide anything that you guys need Thanks in advance!

- OC issue. So I have tried a simple overclock after reading a bit about it. I have first used the Gigabyte Easy Tune software and with one click I OC my CPU to 3.7 GHz .It was okay at first but then I realized that the Ryzen 2200G has a turbo boost to 3.7Ghz so I though there is no point to OC. I have then tried to use Ryzen Master Software to OC the CPU to 3.8 Ghz. After increasing the Ghz it asked me to restart the PC so I thought okay. After restart the PC went off. I pressed the button to start but it would turn on for 1 second and shut it self off again. So I thought okay I must have screwed up something so I have reset the BIOS by touching the 2 pins on the MOBO (CMOS). The computer turned on just fine and I went back to Ryzen Master the profile with 3.8 Mhz was active and running. So I was not sure where the problem was. This happened several times and my question is why? The second thing is that after OC when I am in game for example League of Legends my screen just freezes I can hear sounds and everything but can't do anything the only thing I can do is restart my computer. Since my monitor is plugged in to GPU I assume that the GPU crashes but this does not happen if I don't do any OC. Again why is this happening is it because of my voltage or a bad PSU? By the way I have run a simple stress test using CPUID powerMax and with 3.8Ghz and stock cooler my temps went to max 72 Celsius.
- FPS. I have seen videos on Youtube where people with the same rig get 200+ FPS in League of Legends with drops to 140-150 FPS. My self I am getting between 95-120 FPS and it is constantly jumping. I see people in the video start with high FPS like 200 and I start my game with 70 FPS and as soon I start moving it goes up to 100-110. I understand that having more than 60 FPS in these type of game is more than enough but I was just wandering why people with the same builds get more than I do. Also the GPU fans rarely spin but I assume that is because it is not reaching any high temperatures.
Some things that I have done is I have enable XMP profile in BIOS so that my Ram runs at 2800Mhz as I know that Ryzen CPUs like memory. All I did is changes the profile. I have updated all my drivers as well to make sure everything is up to date as well.
