Hello all, Recently I built myself a PC for gaming and streaming. Its been performing very well, specs below. GPU: MSI Super Ventus RTX 2070 Super CPU: Ryzen 7 3700x Memory: G.skill Ripjaws 16GB @ 3200hz Mobo: Asroxk X570 phantom gaming ATX AM4 Storage: 1Tb NVME M.2 SSD PSU: Seasonic 650W 80+ Gold Anyway, the main game i play and stream is Rust. I feel like I don't get enough frames in certain situations, when streaming and without. I've compared to multiple friends who have similar specs but intel cpus such as i9 9900k and such. Apparently Rust favors single core performance. My question is, is it worth selling the Ryzen for a 9900k overall? Is it worth the hassle of getting a new motherboard as well? I might just sell the whole system if I decide to do this. Anyway, any advice helps.

You're considering swapping the motherboard and CPU, but unless it's your only option and you're confident it will greatly improve performance, it might not be the best move. If you really need to go ahead, then proceed with what's in your best interest.

You're risking a significant amount of money. The decision depends on your judgment about its value. Honestly, I wouldn't recommend it.

It's only about a 10% boost at 5GHz, depending on your RAM speed. Have you already tested this?

Avoid this action. Ensure additional frames are captured before proceeding.

Avoid pushing Zen 2 beyond its limits. Use PBO for better stability. For serious overclocking, it often doesn’t improve performance and can slow things down instead.

CCX can unlock more potential through overclocking, especially when single-threaded speed matters. Following the techniques Linus discussed in the RAM video—like adjusting the infinity fabric or fine-tuning RAM timings—might also boost results.

that could work. tho that is true, tho you are unlikely to get much if any more than what PBO allready offers. tho getting to lock clockspeed at 4,3ghz on a CCX will help in multithreaded games. then there is also unlocking the ram to infinity fabric ratio that can yield some improvements, but that is into the more complex of the CPU overclocking space as higher doesnt allways equal better

It used to run quicker but now Zen 2 focuses more on response time than pure speed. Yes, it could benefit Intel, but the main goal is improving latency instead of raw performance. I'm thinking about methods to enhance the current chip's efficiency.
