What frame rates do an FX-8350 processor and an RX570 graphics card achieve in Battlefield V?
Hello, I’m running an Intel Core i8350 processor with 16GB of 16MHz RAM, and I upgraded from a GeForce GTX 1050 Ti to an AMD Radeon RX 570 with 8GB. I installed Battlefield V on high settings primarily, achieving frame rates between 50-60, and then I adjusted it to medium settings with a frame cap of 60, resulting in consistent 59-60 frames. My CPU and GPU are running at their default speeds. The RX 570 was configured through the MSI Gaming App. Given this performance, is this expected, or should I be experiencing smoother gameplay, potentially on high settings with a target of 60fps using the new graphics card?
The FX-8350 is now a notably underpowered processor. Upgrading it is advised; it presents a significant limitation for the RX570.
Would acquiring a Ryzen 5 2600 alongside quick memory be sufficient to balance things out? I plan to postpone a central processing unit upgrade for several weeks as I require a processor, motherboard, and RAM. Should I boost the performance of my existing 8350 while waiting? I utilize water cooling, and at its standard speed, it maintains temperatures between 38-45°C.
Adding a Ryzen 5 2600 and quicker memory should help balance things out. You likely won’t upgrade your processor for several months while you acquire a new processor, motherboard, and RAM. Would it be beneficial to raise the clock speed of your existing 8350? With your water cooling system, you typically achieve temperatures between 38-45°C at stock settings. Certainly, the Ryzen 5 2600 is an excellent processor, and with those temperatures and your water cooling setup, you can definitely overclock that 8350.

I’m wondering if adding a Ryzen 5 2600 and some quick memory will help balance things out. I likely won't upgrade my processor for several months since I need to acquire a CPU, motherboard, and RAM first. Should I increase the clock speed of my existing 8350 temporarily? My water cooling system keeps my temperatures between 38-45°C at stock settings. Thank you.
Absolutely, the Ryzen 5 2600 is an excellent processor. And with those temperatures and your water cooling setup, you can definitely overclock that 8350.
I haven’t really done any overclocking before, but I’ll investigate boosting it to around 4.4 or 4.5 GHz. And I’ll use it for a few months until I can afford to purchase the components for my new Ryzen build. Also, will the 570 being limited in performance for a while not impact its capabilities once I upgrade?

Do you believe adding a Ryzen 5 2600 and quicker memory will adequately resolve any imbalances? I plan on delaying a CPU upgrade for several months since I need to acquire a CPU, motherboard, and RAM first. Should I increase the clock speed of the 8350 while waiting? My cooling system maintains temperatures between 38-45 °C at stock settings.
Certainly, the Ryzen 5 2600 is an excellent processor. And given your temperatures and the water cooler, you absolutely can boost the 8350’s clock speed.
I haven't previously engaged in overclocking, but I will investigate boosting it to approximately 4.4 or 4.5 GHz. I'll utilize it for a period until I can afford to purchase parts for the new Ryzen build. Furthermore, will the current limitation of the GTX 570 being held back for a while not impact its performance once an upgrade is made?
A bottleneck doesn’t directly influence the graphics card; it simply prevents it from operating at its peak capability due to another component – specifically your processor. Your video card will function as expected following the upgrade.
What is the graphics card utilization percentage?
If it’s approaching 90-100%, as my GTX 970 experiences in Borderlands, the processor isn't a bottleneck (though it could be if you’re playing with others and there’s intense activity). Games are designed to heavily utilize GPUs – but they also look impressive.
Keep Task Manager or MSI Afterburner running discreetly while gaming, then monitor CPU usage %/GPU usage %.
