Rx 570 on ryzen 3 1300x causes bottleneck ?

[sonic99]

I recently bought a Sapphire Pulse RX 570 4GB and paired it with a Ryzen 3 1300 stock on an A320 board. Performance of CSGO and Fortnite in low settings are not that good. Anyone using the same setup like me ? Is the Ryzen 3 bottlenecking my GPU ?

what do you mean by 'not that great'?

[David_2716]

I mean i used to have a rx580 4gb and a ryzen 5 1400 and it ran great on everything high except shadows and motion blur off around 120 frames a sec average. I dont know how far in power a 570 and a 580 is but i wouldn't expect a lot.

fortnite and csgo are cpu bound games, the 570 can in theory push medium at 100fps+ paired with a powerful cpu on those games

I would like to state that on my i3-8100 + 1050 ti build, I got 60+ fps on mixed settings

By "not that good" I meant fps drops. I am a competitive CS:GO player. That means I use 4:3 resolutions like 1024x768 / 1280x960. At low settings I should get over 250+ fps in any given map. But I get like 140-230 fps.
In fortnite I get huge stutters frequently, just because the fps is dropping from 170 to 90 fps. FPS remains the same even after lowering the resolution.

neither of those components are meant to do that in those games

maybe a ryzen 5 + 580 would be a closer solution

I bet it can. I have played with a r7 370 and i3 6100 back in the days. I used to get 200+ fps on everything low @1024x768 resolution. There has been several map updates for which I might get a 10% drop in FPS but not by that margin. Ryzen 3 1300x and RX 570 is surely much better right ?
Can a faulty CPU or motherboard can cause these type of issues? Or its just with these type of CPU bound games ?

100fps+ in csgo medium? 1030 + g4560s can do that.

150-200fps max is RX 570 range.

cpu bound is either one of 2 things, either the game likes more cpu cores to do multi threaded workloads, which neither of these games immensely benefit from, or single core performance which the 6100 and the ryzen 3 both have the same amount of.  So assuming that there has been 0 changes to the game and operating system and background tasks, you should be seeing around a 10% frame rate increase which the 570 is capable of.

 

though seeing that you're on a budget build, are you by chance using a monitor that can't display 240hz? Because having the monitor unable to have a higher fps would mean that the game would have no gain at those framerates.

Already stated that I am a competitive CSGO player. Getting those extra frames does help us no matter what's the Hz. I do run a 60h monitor.
Btw, do you think A320 board lowers down performance of CPU by any means ? I dont care about OC performance.

unless you got the absolutely cheapest and most nerfed down motherboard, then no

as for my testing though, there are 0 gains for having a higher refresh rate than what the monitor, and those who claim there are are just repeating an incorrect rumor.

Is there any way to verify whether my motherboard is fine by software methods ?

yeah, run a benchmark and compare your parts to other peoples parts
