Low FPS while gaming

[Travan278]

I have discovered that my PC is performing by far worse than some PCs on youtube with almost the same specs as mine (for example when I play Warzone I get like 60 fps on low and the video shows they could easily play on medium/high on 70-80 fps). My PC specs are:

Ryzen 5 1600

Gtx 1650 super

Mobo: Asus B350 Prime Plus

16 gb ram 2400mhz

1TB HDD WD Blue

 

Also I do not know if this is the correct "section" for this.

Well that RAM is pretty slow, those YouTubers may be using higher speed RAM. Ryzen basically needs higher speed RAM (3200/3600mhz is the sweet spot price/performance wise). It could also be a thermal issue, so you could monitor your temps while you play to make sure nothing is throttling.

This is normal. Those videos are run on the minimum OS and with absolutely every background app imaginable disabled. Don't listen to them.

Ehh, with a 6 core CPU and 16GB RAM, no application would cause that much of a decrease in performance. I would imagine it's due to the low speed RAM.

You're not wrong, but those videos are really unreliable and dumb.

Well they have ram with the same speed but maybe what davemc said it is true.

You're right, they should be taken just as a guide and not EXACTLY what you're going to get, but they give a pretty close idea. Besides, a 1650 Super and Ryzen 5 1600 shouldn't be getting 60fps at low settings. At least not with decent speed RAM. 60fps at high would be more what I'd expect.

Do you have XMP/DOCP enabled?

So you think that my PC is still performing worse than it should?

ryzen 1st gen copes better with lower ram frequencies than 2nd gen and later

I tried to enable DOCP but I can't enable there is only an option to disable it. Here on the picture where it says DOCP I have the option to only disable it (random picture btw)
