Im not having any problems with wattman, im just want some info and answers to my questions. So i went into wattman cuz i wanted to turn on Vsync on Starbound (game doesnt seem to have a setting for that) and i saw that wattman said i didnt really meet the recommendations for VrChat. So i took a look at it, i mean i should be able since my cpu is strong enough for low VR experience, from what i know. Its and ryzen 3 2200g, paired with 8gb ram and a rx 480 4gb. So i looked on what it recommended me to get, and im lost.

It tells me to upgrade from a ryzen 3 2200g to the exact same cpu? and it still shows it doesnt meet the miniomum requirements? even if they recommend it? what do they mean? is it legit ora bug, and as i said, there arent any problems. Im just wondering whats going on.

 

EDIT: i also dont like that even if i do meet the recommended specs on a game, it still recommend me to get the best cpu and gpu AMD has to offer. Why tho? it meets the recommended specs, so why say i should upgerade to an radeon VII?image.png.28466c812218256ec993631609d7a663.png

Processor Requirements: Intel® i5-4590 / AMD FX 8350 equivalent or greater

 

The Ryzen 3 2200G is actually pretty much "identically" on pair with an i5 4590 giving a quick look on how both CPU performs, so I'd say you're on the limit of what they'd consider "required".

 

You should be fine here, it's not like they block you from trying VRChat entirely, your experience just won't be as pristine as it could be with a better CPU.

yeh thanks! and also, i cant seem to find Starbound on Radeon settings game explorer. How do i add it to the list/find it? i want to turn on Vsync. and since the game doenst have a setting in-game that i can change, and i dont really know where the setting file is, i thought radeon settings would be able to fix it.

If they work anything like nVidia's you can indeed force different settings other than those built in into the application, but how to get it sort out is beyond me since I've always only owned nVidia cards.
