The finals seem to demand excessive standards.
The finals seem to demand excessive standards.
I've got your PC specs: i5-7500, RX 6400, and 16GB DDR4 RAM. Despite that, you're struggling to get smooth performance for The Finals. It seems like the graphics settings are either too basic or causing stuttering at 60 FPS. Let's look into ways to improve it.
You can anticipate solid performance with a 7500 and an RX 6400.
I concur, both parts are under their suggested performance limits for 1080p at 60 frames per second.
Your system meets the CPU and GPU baseline needs, but falls just short of optimal performance. This can lead to a less than ideal gaming experience. To achieve the best results, begin with low settings and gradually increase textures until you hit the memory limit. Textures provide noticeable visual improvements while using limited resources. However, the RX 6400 should stay under VRAM limits when connected via PCIe Gen 3 to minimize data transfer over the narrow PCIe x4 bus. Keep texture upgrades modest to ensure usage stays well below 4GB.
The RX 6400 doesn’t meet the recommended standards for The FINALS. The Finals suggests using an RX 580/1050Ti as a minimum and 5700XT/RTX2070 or higher as a recommendation. Your system underperforms compared to those cards. The i5 7500 will behave similarly to the i5 6600K, which is the lowest CPU requirement noted. Your issues seem mainly tied to graphics performance. The RX 6400’s PCIe 4.0 lanes won’t fully utilize your PCIe 3.0 support, cutting bandwidth in half and causing a 10-30% drop in speed. Try games with lower demands, lower resolutions, or switch to another GPU. Used RX 580 8GB or GTX 1060 6GB models are often available at a fraction of the price.
The 7500 isn't great, yet the 6400 performs well enough—don't expect "gaming" quality from it. Opt for a better GPU instead.

I think the 6400 might be linked to this PC being an SFF. If not, then you were cheated on a bunch of subpar GPUs. To improve performance, try boosting the RX 6400 and turning on FSRC or any other available upscaling feature.
