So I couldn't even follow the video cause thaiphoon didn't have that xmp option he used lol. I think I just have to replace my ram.

Yea I've watched some videos but I'll watch that one carefully lol. Bios tweaking scares me.

There's not even an option for xmp in the bios

No I haven't tried overclocking the ram but I will try that. I get low fps when I'm not streaming as well. I guess low is subjective but compared to benchmarks I see elsewhere, I get low numbers. I will try everything you suggested

When I'm not streaming it's at like 9 or 10. When I open up OBS (streaming program) it jumps to around 30. Then when I stream it jumps up to 70 and reaches 100 randomly

I'm sure it's cheap. I bought this pc prebuilt. I've been upgrading it recently. Temps for my cpu are always good. this is the prebuilt I originally bought https://www.microcenter.com/product/615138/powerspec-g162-gaming-desktop-pc

Task manager says 2667

Task manager says 2667

Yea it's running at 3.89

Yea the ram is in slots 2 and 4. I'm not sure about xmp (I'm new to pc's). Chipset drivers are up to date. Gpu drivers are also up to date. The bio is not. It's one update behind. I don't have a flash drive to flash the bios.

Sorry. I hit enter before I was finished making this topic lol. I have an asrock b450m AC and 16gigs of ddr4 at 2666

Motherboard - asrock b450m AC Ram - 16gb of ddr4 at 2666 I get about 30-50 frames at 1440p on something like Runescape on high and ultra settings. I get around 50-70 on call of duty Modern Warfare unless I put the settings on low. It's the same story for GTA 5. I can't stream call of duty Modern Warfare to twitch without frames dropping. CPU Usage always jumps to 100% in that situation. I've been told that my 2700x should be capable of more but I have no point of reference. My temps seem to be normal across the board. It seems like there is a bottleneck somewhere

So I have a new PSU and my computer doesn't shut down abruptly at high loads anymore. I'm still not getting the performance that I feel I should be getting. I get about 30-50 frames at 1440p on something like Runescape on high and ultra settings. I get around 50-70 on call of duty Modern Warfare unless I put the settings on low. It's the same story for GTA 5. I can't stream call of duty Modern Warfare to twitch without frames dropping. CPU Usage always jumps to 100% in that situation. I've been told that my 2700x should be capable of more but I have no point of reference.

I will try that. Thanks for the advice.
