my rtx 2060 is really under performing i cant get enough fps in games 

my pc specs- 

cpu- Ryzen 7 2700

gpu- rtx 2060

ram- 1x16gb 3200 Mhz

motherboard- B450M bazooka 

power supply- corsair 550w

i have benchmarks for the games that i have and they show 80+ fps in all games or even close to 100fps,but i am getting only 30-40 fps

also my cpu usage is very low during games.

Plz help

Howdy and welcome :) 

 

Something is underperforming anyway.  there’s probably more than one thing wrong, and I don’t know how much this will help, but are you maybe running that single 16gb stick single channel?

Another thing to look at is the memory speed.  You’ve got a ryzen+ processor that will have a max memory speed that may be below 3200mhz (I don’t know) and you’re memory could conceivable be running at base rate, which I think is 2133.  
 

Maybe check those (might not be the case) and maybe do some testing to see what if anything is hitting 100%.  

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

ryzen7 2700 is lower than 3200Mhz and i am running that memory on single channel and also my memory speed is 2667 Mhz can you suggest something to increase my performance with changing components

I suspect step one is find out what is doing what.  Do some testing with CPUZ and GPUZ maybe?  My issue here is I’m horribly out of date on the best software to use to find out what performance actually is.  If it turns out the problem is your cpu just can’t push the frames (Which I am not sure of) the good news is you can probably run higher detail levels and bigger screen sizes without fps loss.  Those things stress the gpu more than the cpu. 
 I understand ryzen+ overclocks better than Ryzen2. It’s possible you’ll need to do some of that.  Doing so might make your memory be able to run a bit faster as well (I don’t know how that works) 
There are people here quite adept at milking top performance out of ryzen.  I’m not one of them though.  Hopefully one will chime in. 
 

things i suspect such a person will need:

-what games at what detail and resolution 

-what monitor you have
-what usage levels your cpu and gpu are at.

-what the target fps numbers are vs what you have
-what hardware these target fps numbers are being run on.

 

the 2700x is not really a gaming chip.  It’s a workstation chip. The nice thing about it is it’s 8/16, so it will very likely RUN future games because it’s got as many available threads as the consoles or a 10900k 9900k has.  What it doesn’t have is 10900k 9900k clocks. It is a third the price after all.  So run? Yes. Run fast? Perhaps not so much. 
There are higher clock newer CPUs that will increase those numbers perhaps (though the actual problem has not been confirmed)

my gpu usage is high but cpu usage is only 10-15%

and can you describe a little better because i am not able to understand what are you trying to tell me to do 

 

can you just tell me to do some changes to in my system to get the excepted performance out of rtx 2060

First of all you need dual channel memory, so 2 sticks. And they should be 3200MHz. That should be your first priority. Maybe just try to get another 16GB of the same RAM as the stick you have now and then see what happens. The memory is bottlenecking the CPU right now.

what if i get 2x8gb sticks?? or only 1x8gb stick

I don't think you can mix the amount of RAM, both have to be the same size. Preferably the same model sticks too, or else they might not work in dual channel. Yes, you could get 2x8GB sticks. But if you can find the same model stick as the one you're currently using you could get double the amount of RAM for the same cost.

I don’t know enough about the behavior of ryzen+ myself to be able to give you much more than vague direction I’m afraid :/  I don’t know what you are trying to attain with what monitor, and I don’t know what you are comparing to.  Even if I knew these things I still might not be of much help.  The 15% vs “high” is helpful.  High might or might not be 100% but 15% is definitely low.  I don’t know what helps what how much.  I am given to understand that all ryzen is highly memory sensitive though.

are you sure this will help

Yes. If you have 2 sticks, the memory bandwidth doubles. You probably cant get the data from the drive->RAM->CPU->GPU fast enough. 

I could use some help with this!

please, pm me if you would like to contribute to my gpu bios database (includes overclocking bios, stock bios, and upgrades to gpus via modding)

Yeah, dual channel vs single channel will help. I'm not sure if you have some other problem with your system too, but that would be the place I would start from. You can check youtube for example with the search term "dual channel vs. single channel" and see for yourself. I'm not really an expert in these things, but this is what I would do.
