Weird frame drops?

[xFireLegendx138]

So I hopped on Fortnite Ch2 S7 (sorry for fn haters) and firstly when getting into the game I got weird frames at one point even dropped to 1 frame. But as soon as you get started playing the game, frames do pick up. Any reason why the frames drop when I join? If you are wanting specs here: 

CPU: AMD Ryzen 3 3200G
Motherboard: ASUS Micro - ATX A320M-K 
GPU: ASUS RX 580 8GB OC Edition
PSU: Builder 600W Non - Modular https://ichoose-ltd.co.uk/products/system-builder-600w-psu-atx-power-supply-unit-12cm-fan-pc?currency=GBP&utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=Google%20Shopping&gclid=CjwKCAjwqvyFBhB7EiwAER786exJ1Za36lgF7cOq6dW2Xso4ua4sKhkaTM3jEVE9qCMr1qCI1bMnVRoC8EwQAvD_BwE   Wandering if this is the problem... 

HDD: 1TB Hard Drive SEAGATE Barracuda

the CPU is loading in all the assets. It takes more work to do it up front but then after it's all loaded the game runs smooth.

You're getting almost all you can out of the CPU then. If you upgrade your CPU you would probably lag a lot less at the start so next time you're planning an upgrade that would be the way to go
