    Mate, even the least informed on this website know that increasing resolution lessens the strain on the CPU because you generally get lower framerates due to GPU constraints. 
    How can you have 3.3k posts and not know this.

    Majestic got a reaction from LienusLateTips in why is my 6700k so hot 85+c   
    That's because most reviewers are retards and test aircoolers on non-delidded Intel chips that hit the same temperature with just about any heatsink, because most of the heat is trapped between the lid.
     
    Find one that test with a load resistor setup. 
     
    Speaking of which, check the voltages.

    When the CPU becomes the bottleneck you'll always encounter poor frametime consistency and framedrops due to the renderthread overflowing. And you did not do yourself a favor by going with single-channel 2400mhz memory on a Ryzen chips. Notorious for requiring decent memory to run close to the intel competition. Neither are they champions of running very high framerates due to their design. Though I feel like running 1080p at this time and age is doing yourself a disservice. 
     
    So you're going to have to settle for lower, yet stable framerates. You can do this by increasing graphical settings that increase load on the GPU, and lower those that have an impact on CPU, and in your case also lower texture settings as you don't have excess memory or bandwidth.
     
    So I suggest lowering features like:
    Model Detail, Draw Distance, Geometry Detail, Textures
     
    And increasing things like Resolution (use a resolution scale if you're running 1080p monitor), MSAA, Lighting/shadows, Tessellation, or anything pixelshader related.
     
    Then when you've got a nice balance but have the occasional hitch because you're CPU is not able to keep up with the GPU, use RTSS (part of MSI Afterburner, it's the Statistics server) to set a framecap that is low enough as to maintain a stable framerate. Start by setting it to 100-110 and lower it incrementally until you hit a framerate it can viable hit 99% of the time.
     

     
    I see no glaring issues with the system, nothing is throttling, I do see some fileswapping from memory to disk, so as I said, be mindful of texture settings. If your CPU is bottlenecking and the GPU load as a result drops, so does it's power. You're seeing a correlation, but it's not the causal factor.
     
    EDIT: also, I say bottleneck but don't take this the wrong way. There is always a bottleneck, that word does not imply it's a bad system or a bad part that is being said bottleneck, as it is mostly used on this website as such. I just mean to say that it's predominantly determining performance. If a system had no bottlenecks it would have infinite performance.

    That PSU seems excessive (850 seems enough), as does the 32GB of RAM for current gaming. And for consumers that don't need the consistency of the PRO ssd's, the 970 evo is probably the better value.

    Well then you'll def. want to isolate it from the table. So get an arm with the proper size fitting at the end.

    My experience with that mic is that it picks up a lot of background noise due to it's design. You're better off getting a decent dynamic type podcast mic.
    You'll have to be closer to the mic, but it won't pick up your keyboard or your chair squeaking the whole time.

    Majestic got a reaction from JoostinOnline in QHD Monitors with HDR and Gsync?   
    You know exactly what i'm referring to. There is only one objective test, so i'm not sure what "research" you're referring to other than the (now ancient) PCPer test, and didn't I say I had personal experience as well?
     
    You're telling this man to shell out $200 extra for a monitor, to have a feature that is also available for free on other models. And any premium panel of those specs will have some quality control done regarding the freesync implementation. You can't expect them to tune $150 panels, they'd eat up all their margin. The same is not true for $500+ panels. It's completely unreasonable for you to assume since those dirt cheap panels have little QC, that goes for ALL freesync panels.

    It depends on what interface it has on both the GPU and Monitor. Just try if you can set 144hz in the control panel.
