Hello guys! So i have a PC and I just bought an RTX 3070 and I need some help. Here are the specs: Ryzen 5 2600 Gigabyte RTX 3070 Gaming OC Rev. 1 16 gb ram 2400 MHz Samsung 860 EVO (for games) Sasmung 970 EVO Plus (for Windows 10) WD Blue 2 TB HDD (for stuff) Gigabyte B450 Aorus Elite Chieftec 600W PSU (85 bronze) 1080p Display I upgraded from an RX 480 and I was so stoked to play games on hella FPS but sadly this is not the case. All drivers are up to date and everything, I tried a lot of troubleshooting like checking if Windows is in performance mode or tweeking the Nvidia Control Panel with the help of youtube and google. In every single game I am playing I have 30-40% less FPS than I think I should be getting. For example in CS:GO on Dust 2 I am only getting around 130-150 FPS wich is ridiculous. In Cyberpunk (no ray tracing DLSS Quality) 35-50 FPS. Warzone 2 60-70 FPS... and I could go on. Temps are in order. CPU under load at around 65 C, GPU under load around 67 C. I know that the 2400 MHz ram is not the perfect choice but I built this PC 3 years ago and I wasn't really (sadly) paying attention to that detail. I still think though that I should have a lot more FPS than I am getting. I read everywhere that it is CPU bottleneck but other people are getting as I already said nearly double my FPS count in nearly every game (according to the gaming benchmarks) . Do you maybe have any idea what I could do? If needed I am happy to attach benchmarks or anything if that helps. I appreciate the help. I've read the other threads regarding my problem but nothing helped that I've tried.

You're wondering if your 2600 and its weak RAM are really limiting the performance of your 3070. Besides swapping them out, it seems unlikely you'll see significant improvement.

I know what you're asking. With a Ryzen 5 2600, you should see around 250 FPS in CSGO, and the RAM won't halve your performance.

Your gameplay is quite poor, especially with limited memory. What are your CPU and GPU utilization during play?

RAM is operating in dual channel mode. In CSGO CPU consumption: 20-30% GPU utilization (at a very low clock speed of 1275 MHz): 38-40%.

I’m not naive and I realized my 2600 wouldn’t fully use the 3070. Seeing others play with a 2600 and 3070 confirmed I’d get better FPS. I’m upgrading to a new 7600x with DDR5 RAM, but only in the near future. For now, I’m okay with my 2600. Here’s a screenshot of quickCPU during a CSGO session after reinstalling Windows with the new GPU.
