Expected more performance...

Hmm ok... I might be an idiot.

So i just re-ran the FH4 benchmark but this time i changed the settings from the Geforce Experience best image quality settings (slider all the way to the right) and the ultra preset option in game and my performance jumped from 82fps average to 108fps average. Which is more where i would expect it to be. Also that was with my CPU running at 3.2Ghz instead of 4Ghz as i forgot to change the settings in Ryzen master.

Didnt realise there would be such a performance hit. Perhaps its the MSAA or something...

Sorry i meant to say i changed it from the Geforce Experience best image quality settings (slider all the way to the right) to the "ultra" preset in the game. Im not really sure what that actually entailed changing aside from MSAA, but yes as i noted it resulted in a rather large increase in performance. I suppose when you move to 1440p you dont need to spend as much GPU resources on AA so you get some of that performance back.

Anyway, appreciate all your help with this. Im still impressed with my Ryzen 7, even if it is a 1st gen. The fact it runs on a 4Ghz all core overclock all day long still pleases me. I suspect i will update to Zen 2 when that comes out later this year. Do love AMD for keeping their sockets consistent.
