CPU has low single thread performance

[Alex5]

Hello everyone

So i built my pc a couple of weeks ago and everything went smooth. However when i started playing more cpu intensive games, i had a lot of stuttering while i had high frames (Even with frame limiter). So i did a benchmark in CPU-Z and the score for single thread performance was very low (as seen in image), even though the cpu runs at its correct clockspeed (4.2Ghz).Temperatures are fine. I tried everyhting i could to try and fix this like reinstalling windows, trying different BIOS settings, even reapllying thermal paste. Is this a hardware issue? Im using AMD Ryzen 5 3600.

Any help would be appreciated.

Greetings

Some programs arnt great with ryzen, my suggestion would be to use Cinebench and see what single threaded performance that gives you

Yup, was going to suggest a Cinebench R23 single thread test.

So did that and the results are alright? I saw some scores of the same cpu that were a little higher but not by much.

The higher sctore of 1173 is around where it should be, the single core performance compared to a gen 1 ryzen is about a 29% increase, this is 22%, its still a bit low, but that might just be the silicon lottery

Its weird that the score in cinebench is good but in CPU-Z its low, could it be a bug? I installed a couple of different versions of cpu-z but all gave the same result.

Ive noticed a lot of software dont like Ryzen 3000 chips, not sure why

Definitely weird... cpuz works normal for me...
