How can I verify that I'm receiving the highest number of frames from my PC?
Hey there,
I own a Ryzen 5 1500X with 1060 6GB and 32 GB RAM. Lately I've been facing some issues running games smoothly. For example, in Battlefield 2042 I barely hit over 50 frames on low settings, and the recent Fortnite update is making it hard to keep consistent performance. I realize my hardware is near the end of its range, but I still hope for a bit more improvement. Can someone check if there might be something being throttled? Thanks!
Older 4 core models will have difficulty with modern games. Visit userbenchmark.com and execute the test. The outcomes can be shared via the provided link.
Close any background applications before starting the test. It's displaying 60% usage in the background. Music apps, games, and even the web browser you used to download it are present. Even with the flawed test, your RAM seems to be operating at the base clock.
Install RAM into slots a2-b2. Activate XMP settings. The 60% background consumption is excessive! Verify RAM status. Turn on XMP within BIOS. Re-execute the test.
I had around five chrome tabs running during the test, but I'm not sure that would affect the 60%. I plan to move my RAM and turn on XMP in the BIOS as you suggested, then try again. I should be able to do this later today.
I activated XMP and upgraded my RAM. Unfortunately, I reached a maximum of 2666 MHz. I attempted twice, but the system would start, yet my monitors wouldn't turn on and neither did my peripherals. I had to reset the CMOC to resolve the issue. I'm unsure what causes the 13% CPU usage. When I turned on the computer and ran the test, no background windows were open.
