Low frame rate on 3000x Ryzen system, assistance needed
Low frame rate on 3000x Ryzen system, assistance needed
Hello everyone
I recently assembled my new PC setup... but when I play Destiny 2 at 1440p, I’m only getting about 90-110 FPS on ultra settings. This doesn’t match the benchmark numbers online that suggest around 180 FPS for the same configuration.
I’ve updated all the available drivers—BIOS, chipset, GPU...—but I’m still unsure if the problem lies with AMD or just a bug in Destiny 2 itself.
Here’s my hardware:
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 3800X
- GPU: RTX 2080 Super
- RAM: G.SKILL Neo 16GB at 3600MHz
- Motherboard: ROG Crosshair VIII HERO
- SSD: M.2 1TB Sarbent Rocket Gen4
I’m curious how much FPS you’re achieving with the RTX 2080 Super on 1440p in Destiny 2. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
When performance problems arise, follow these steps:
1) Make sure your drivers are current, close any extra programs, update Windows and BIOS, etc.
2) Set up monitoring tools to watch CPU usage per core, temperatures, power limits, clock speeds, RAM usage, GPU temps, power limits, memory usage, and other details I might miss.
3) Use MSI Afterburner with Task Manager for this task, as suggested.
4) Run your game and record these stats while playing.
Most of the time you’ll review these numbers to identify what’s slowing you down—overheating, power caps, underclocking, or just a natural limitation. Without that data it’s difficult to assist effectively, and usually you won’t need help unless you have it.

Second monitor makes that easy. But I do also like to focus on my game while gaming, so what I meant was to run those tools, then play the game, and then quit the game and look at the graphs over time those apps present for you. No need for an overlay since they collect data over time.
