Ryzen 5 3600 low 3DMark scores

[lasogna]

My CPU is getting 6,299 on Time Spy and 17,752 on Firestrike, but my Cinebench scores are normal (479 single, 3,411 CPU).

What's your memory speeds?

3,000 MHz, cl 16 dual channel.

I guess just try overclocking it to 4200-4300mhz depending on how lucky you get Probably don't want to pass 1.4V

 

also make sure your motherboard bios is up to date.

My BIOS is up to date. I have a Crucial Ballistix Sport kit. Buildzoid didnt get past 3600 with them.

And what is the problem? I have the same CPU and get around 6800, which puts me right into the top places in Timespy for comparable hardware,  not every CPU is the same and that difference isn't that big either, still within average performance I suppose. My CPU is at stock settings BTW 

 

In any case your CPU score is normal - in my opinion - want better scores need to upgrade to 8 core or something I guess. 

 

Spoiler

PS: board is MSI B350M Mortar

 

But from the comparisons I did there really isn't a deciding difference in performance between boards,  it's all over the place lol.

 

 

PSS: your RAM is slower so that result makes even more sense, so yes you could try OC the RAM it might just give you a few more points there *shrug*

The problem is I can't even get 60 FPS on high settings at 1080p with a R5 3600 paired with an RX 5700.

Well ok,  that *is* a problem,  that result still isn't too bad or abnormal and the 3600 is pretty strong either way.

Could also be the GPU not doing what it's supposed to. 

 

Which games are you having issues with? 

 

PS: please post 3D Mark result screens,  everything,  CPU,  GPU,  RAM,  clocks  , etc,  maybe there's something hinting at issues...

GTA, Ghost Recon Wildlands, and Rainbow Six Siege. Those are the three games that I have with built-in benchmarks.

Ok I see the results are on the lower side,  but still not "bad". Honestly that was the same for me in 3DMark, average to  low results,  which is probably good as it means there are no major issues with the hardware most likely. I only got *much* better results once I OC my GPU to absurd levels haha (well for my perception anyways) 

 

You have to consider most people who do these tests will be overclocking the shit out of their hardware so being at the lower side with stock settings isn't surprising at all.

 

 

As for those games, I don't play them and I don't know how demanding they are,  I think I read Ghost Recon to be very demanding though? In which case you could try lower settings or OC your GPU,  and maybe RAM too, assuming you're not CPU bound. 

 

It looks all normal to me honestly? 

 

 

For example the best scores have ~2200 core clock, of course they'll have better results!

Not really. R5 3600+RX 5700 benchmarks on Youtube show much more FPS. Also not getting nearly enough FPS according to GPUcheck.

Here's the top score for comparison 

 

 

 

Not only did he OC his card to 2200, he also somehow managed to get the CPU to 4.4!  

 

(also seems water-cooled)

Well maybe something is wrong with your settings, drivers,  etc,  but your benchmark scores still look normal to me. 

 

Are you sure you're not comparing with OC hardware?  

 

Also maybe you're using different settings in games,  small things like volumetric lighting for example can have a huge impact. 

 

Also keep in mind this test values GPU a lot more than CPU,  so I'd really look into that as you won't get the CPU to 4.4 anyways haha

Hmm you're right. I got thrown off by the 28,964 shown here https://benchmarks.ul.com/hardware/cpu/AMD+Ryzen+5+3600/review?_ga=2.244659148.893929035.1573604769-668101317.1573458000. Guess it's not hardware related.
