Lagging frame rates at 2080p and with a resolution of 1700x.
Is the issue simply incompatibility between them, or is the problem related to the game itself? Am I somehow contributing to the poor performance? My graphics card, an Aorus RTX 2080 with 8GB of memory, paired with a Ryzen 7 1700x processor struggles to achieve a smooth experience in Rainbow Six Siege, consistently delivering only 61 frames per second at the highest settings.
Here are my system specifications:
MSI B350M Gaming PRO motherboard
Ryzen 7 1700x processor
GIGABYTE Aorus GeForce RTX 2080 8GB graphics card
G.SKILL TridentZ RGB memory (2x8GB)
Kingston Digital NVMe M.2 drive (240GB)
Samsung 860 EVO storage (500GB)
Display clarity? 1080 pixels?
Is your memory installed properly in the appropriate slots?
Are you utilizing XMP/DOCP profiles?
Which monitor are you using, and is vertical synchronization activated?
This motherboard accommodates a 3-phase CPU and a 2-phase SOC, which limits its ability to deliver sufficient power for an 8-core processor. Consequently, the CPU doesn’t receive ideal voltage due to inadequate VRM capacity. An 8-core processor necessitates at least a 5-6 phase CPU and a 3-4 phase SOC. Keep in mind that motherboard selection should precede PSU considerations when constructing your PC.
Regarding your system’s display settings: What is your screen resolution? Is it 1080p? Are all your RAM modules installed in the correct memory slots? Is XMP or DOCP enabled in your BIOS settings? Could you please specify which monitor you are utilizing and whether VSync is turned on? I'm currently using a 1080p monitor at 75Hz, and I’m confident that my RAM is properly installed and XMP/DOCP is not activated.
The specified motherboard is limited to a 3-phase CPU and 2-phase SOC, which prevents it from delivering sufficient power for an 8-core processor. This is due to inadequate VRM capacity. An 8-core CPU necessitates at least 5-6 phase CPU and 3-4 phase SOC support. It’s crucial to consider the motherboard as a primary component during PC construction, preceding power supply selection. I will investigate alternative motherboards with improved power delivery capabilities. Thank you!
