Hello, experiencing issues with frame rate in certain games. My setup includes an i3-3240 with 8GB RAM, a 1333GB RAM RX 580 graphics card, and a 600W power supply. I know my CPU is likely limiting performance, especially when running Dota 2 and PUBG at maximum settings. When I push the graphics to full, FPS drops from around 90 to 30, then stabilizes at 60. The system reports about 70-80% CPU load while GPU usage stays low, but performance remains poor. It seems my CPU might be the main bottleneck. Additionally, my monitor is outdated (1366x768), and I’m using AMD’s virtual scaling and super resolution features to help. Updated August 23, 2018 by francisyusantos

Do you understand why the CPU usage isn’t reaching its peak while the FPS remains low in Dota?

Your processor limits performance, but the RAM also plays a role since it runs at 1333MHz. An updated graphics card with a modern driver and a CPU that matches or exceeds it would work better.
