As you can see my system is a severe bottleneck, but that's not why am here. I had a budget pc from 2016, I was planning to upgrade in 2019 fully, but I found a vega 56 sapphire pulse on a great price, hence am waiting for the new ryzen to come out to change all the other parts. Anyway, my system even for the bottlenecking is underperforming, I have checked for example that the average fps for this exact system in the Witcher 3 in 1080p max setting is around 94. While I, only get 40, it's quite absurd.

So what exactly is your question?

[k.m.p]

Have you got hairworks on?

that can severely reduce performance with amd cards

[GoldenLag]

Did you DDU and install drivers for the new card?

[Gregoriou]

Yes, all ddu done. My brother with the exact same specs is getting 60-75 fps on high with a rx 580 while i with a vega 40. My question is why, also the fans are insane. Hairworks is off.

[Herman Mcpootis]

not surprising with the i3 6100, it's gonna bottleneck the vega 56 pretty badly.

[Gregoriou]

I KNOW, am just asking why people with weaker gpus get much more performance than I

with your other friends, do they have 2x4gb of ram or 1x8?

dual channel ram can make a difference, its the only other thing I can think of that could be the problem

(unless you are thermal thottling- check msi afterburner for cpu and gpu temps)

 

Msi afterburner will also show per core cpu and gpu usage, that may also give away the problem

[Brooksie359]

They are running an i3 6100 with a rx 580?

[Gregoriou]

Fans after 55c go crazy and it's making me insane. They have 1x8

[Gregoriou]

Yes, I built his pc. We both were planning to upgrade when the new ryzen came out but we found superb deals. His pc with the same exact specs but with a much weaker gpu gets better fps than i

This no longer seems like a hardware problem, when you launch the game, open up task manager at the same time and see if any of the programs are hogging system resources, sorry for the lack of solution, this does indeed seem really strange, with a dual core, and 8gb ram you will need to close everything when playing the game

Edit: keep task manager open and check when you are playing and especially when the fps dips/stutters.

Are you using the same in game settings?

[Brooksie359]

What is your power supply? Maybe the card is power throttling.

My psu is a bitfenix formula 80plus gold 650w tier 2. I bought in a package with the vega 56. Yes we are.
