FX 4300 Not good enough for Batman Arkham Origins

Go to solution Solved by Faa,

Unfortunately for you I actually do know quite allot about computer hardware and am learning a bit more almost each and everyday. I also have the common sense to not spend money on the AMD FX line of CPUs which is allot more sense than many PC users have LOL. Have a good night man.

Well, just be constructive, don't just yell here "AMD sucks lololol, Intel better". Prove your points, make some valid arguments, be detailed, earn the credits you have to deserve and then you have the right to bash AMD. There's nothing wrong with bashing AMD, if that's all you do without being constructive then it's trolling - the right place to do that would be youtube. Most people just link a benchmark or two and compare the prices between AMD & Intel and it's always Intel offering a better value as most people here are gamers. Start off with accepting your mistakes, cant exactly remember what you've been saying way before you bought the i5 but it was completely wrong. Just do what I said and only die-hard AMD fanboys will hate you here for hurting them with the truth.

Bought Arkham Origins yesterday and my fx 4300 is bottlenecking it. So I got mad and I ended up ordering an asus z97k and a 4690k. I'm so done with amd chips bottlenecking my system (fx 4300 cannot even play minecraft in multiplayer @ 60FPS, but keep in mind that's because it's unoptimised and OGL)

 

This post is a warning to others who might get AMD because I don't think I can fix this, I put the game on the lowest settings and it still dropped constantly. If it's a game problem them I'd appreciate if you could tell me a fix, but other games do get bottlenecked by the fx 4300

remember that it's $100...

a pentium will do the same or worse at stock

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.

Even a Q6600 outperforms a 4300.

this is probably the only place i'll hang out anymore: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/274320-the-long-awaited-car-thread/

 

Current Rig: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600, Abit IN9-32MAX nForce 680i board, Galaxy GT610 1GB DDR3 gpu, Cooler Master Mystique 632S Full ATX case, 1 2TB Seagate Barracuda SATA and 1x200gb Maxtor SATA drives, 1 LG SATA DVD drive, Windows 10. All currently runs like shit :D

I see you use an 8320, how does that perform in Arhkam Origins?

You should be able to play that game on an FX4...  Maybe your motherboard is causing throttling?  Either way, you will be worlds better off with an i5.

Had nothing to do with the FX.

 

 

My guess is you had physX on.

 

 

Enjoy your upgrade though.

no phsyx, cpu usage on 100% (hwinfo osd)

2nd one is arkham city by the way

edit: the benchmark runs at 60 most of the time, but in game it lags way more, useless benchmark..

I played the game on my Phenom X3 8750B and GTX 650 at 900p. Got 30-40 fps constant, settings high, AA off, Physx off. It is totally not a CPU heavy game, there is some other issue in your system.

30-40fps constant.. thats not what I want. the Batman games aren't that demanding and should run at 60 constantly... But there is no harm to check my PC, what do you reccomend is wrong?

Smells like an Intel fanboy propoganda.

Spose I might be, but this chip sucks, no fanboyism involved. I might post about how the intel one goes aswell, it might be bad aswell, but it better not be ffs.

In your sig.

 

" Motherboard: Asrock 960GM (U3S3/FX)  RAM: 8GB Team Elite 1600Mhz + 4GB Samsung 1333Mhz"

 

So what you are saying is that you put an FX cpu on a garbage board with the wrong chipset(760G), 2 different ram makes and models with low speed, and you say your having problems.

 

You dont say....

Listen to Priller above. Are you really mixing RAM? If so, there you go that's the issue. Otherwise maybe you have CPU based Physx enabled. Physx takes quite a big toll on CPU performance, so disabling that will the gameplay a lot more smoother with less dips and higher fps. Also I don't see the PSU in your signature, check if your PSU is actually able to power the system properly. Underpowering the components under load is very dangerous to their health. Apart from those, check if you are not running any heavy CPU based tasks in the background while the game is running. And also monitor stats like GPU, CPU, RAM, VRAM and fps with MSI afterburner so you can better determine which part is causing the issue. On a 270x, I can assure you can max out the game all the way and still get around 50 fps at 1080p. Batman games are not GPU or CPU heavy at all, I've actually even run the game using a GTS 450 at med-high at 1080p above 30 fps.

Tbh that's about what I got when the game first came out before crossfire was supported.

I wouldnt usually blame a 760g board as ive run phenoms on an m5a78l-m/usb3 overclocked fine drawing way more power than an fx4300, though its asrock so...maybe this time,  that 3+1 vrm also...

I've run moh warfighter maxed out at 105fps with my r9-290 with an fx4100 so obviously its rubbish i should be getting 8000fps.

i dont recommend and fx4300 EVER not because of performance issues because there's far worse but for the value an fx6300 is usually a few bucks more and will still work on a cheapo £50 board.

id put money on op having some other issue and i bet hes never checked to see if its actually the game using 100% of the cpu in task manager, considering the mis-matched build im guessing op is part of a bot net, a million virus's and has "a few" chrome extensions.

"I put the game on the lowest settings and it still dropped constantly" yeah im sure the cpu really cares about graphics settings.

Nope it's the FX 4300 cause it's junk. My Phenom II x4 955 OCed could not play Batman AO as well so I also upgrade to Z97X and 4690K LOL. Now there are no issues with poor performance.

that game run's on a potato really it require almost zero processing power, the FX CPU is not the cause for bad performance here.
