Unstable frames with 3060ti

[Hman42]

Hello, I recently upgraded to a Rtx 3060ti, but when playing some games it seems that my frames/ frame-times are not very stable compared to benchmarks ive seen.

Games such as black ops cold war will experience 10-25 frame drops, and when looking around I can see the stutter the most. Comparing to the 3060ti benchmarks the frames look much more stable than what im getting.

Ive updated all my drivers and i havent seen any change. Could this problem be due to my cpu/ ram bottleneck?

also i am running nvidia adaptive sync on my monitor.

SPECS:
Cpu: i5 8400
GPU: Rtx 3060ti
Ram: 2x8gb 2133 mhz
Ssd: crucial 1tb ssd
Mobo: h310m
Monitor: pixio px227 prime 1440p

 

thanks.

Very slow ram could be a factor, and your CPU isn't very fast.

Yeah, I was thinking about upgrading to 3200mhz ram, but my motherboard only supports up to 2666 mhz. 
 

Would upgrading to 3200mhz ram, provide any performance gains although my mobo will downclock to 2666?

benchmarks ≠ real life 

 

 

tldr: learn to tweak your settings

and this is exactly the problem with benchmarks, you saw benchmarks with exactly these specs? pretty sure that you didn't... 

 

even if you were to upgrade the outdated components the above would still apply, pc really isn't all about the 'it just works' life, you need to learn and tweak stuff so you get the performance you like (which is btw also one of the biggest strengths of pc gaming , that you can actually tweak things)

a six core CPU with 16 GB 2133 mhz ram is slow?

 

it may be average atleast if not more.
