Hi everyone,
Hope you're all well in these...interesting times 🤞
So my query is why my rig is not performing? Mostly used for gaming as well as some photoediting.
I don't seek a lot from it, as I only have a 75hz monitor so reliable 75 FPS is all I really need, but I've asked people on the forums of the games I play (Mordhau!!! ) and they think I should absolutely be running the game easily, even up to ultra settings (Mine are middling, and still FPS dips occur frequently)
So, I will say up front my set up gets rather hot, even the case becomes warm to the touch, so maybe it's the cooling (in which case I've run it like this for the past 2 years so may have damaged it?)
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600X 3.6GHz 6 Core (Socket AM4) CPU
COOLER: AMD Wraith Spire Cooler
GPU: Sapphire AMD Radeon RX 580 4GB NITRO+ [bought 2nd hand nearly 2 years ago, possibly needs benchmarking? Any suggestions welcome]
PSU: Antec NeoECO Modular 650W Semi-Modular PSU
RAM: Adata XPG Gammix D10 8GB (2x 8GB) 3000MHz DDR4 [not bought as a linked pair, and speccy states speed of 1330?]
MOBO: Gigabyte B450 AORUS PRO AMD Socket AM4 Motherboard
STORAGE: 2x SSD, 1 for OS, 1 for Games,
CASE: Antec GX200 Gaming Case - Black
FANS: Exhaust: 12mm [came with the case}
Intake: 12mm Arctic F12 Case Fan
Thank you in advance for any of your kind assistance, my esteemed and honourable gentlemen, gentlewomen, gentlepeople....
🙇♂️🙏
