I built myself a system about a year ago with the following specs:
- Ryzen 5 1500X
- GTX 1060 3GB
- A corsair ram 2400mhz (1x8)
- MSI b350 tomahawk motherboard
- A Seagate harddrive
After playing some games I realised that my computer was underpreforming in comparison to what it should with these specs. So i benchmarked it in Unigine and there I saw that I got the exact results of what is to be expected of my specs (if not slightly better) So I accepted the fact and went on about a year without upgrading anything. Now i've upgraded to 16 gigs of ram and have an samsung ssd but my problems still remain. I have realised one thing about my games tho. I seem to have about the same amount of fps, no matter the graphic settings. I can run a game on ultra and get the same fps as I get when I run the game on low (and no I do not have a fps cap, cus my fps rotates from 40 to 12 and often stays around 20-30 fps in most games).
Fallout 76 (unplayable at ultra with about 12 fps and 20 on high, other ppl with my card get 60fps at high)
Star wars battlefront (getting around 30 fps at ultra but after a few minutes it usualy drops down to about 15-20, other ppl with my card get 90fps at ultra)
The witcher 3 (getting 30fps at ultra, ppl with my card get around 60)
I have found one exeption to this, and thats with overwatch where I get 110fps at ultra, and so does anyone else with my card.
My CPU usage is around 40-50% and GPU is at 95-100% and working at around 60 degrees.
I have no idea what has gone wrong and I'm slowly regretting building the system myself instead of going with a prebuilt. I would appriciate any help I could get.
