2200g Game Performance Issues

[Ian Frank]

So I built a mini itx computer, expecting to play games 1080p or 900p low-med or whatever. I had the stock cooler for a little bit, and saw it was getting fairly hot (~85-90c) during games, I now have a 120mm AIO though. I had managed an OC to 1600mhz on graphics at 1.28... volts. During this time I was using it at my friends and I was playing Dead By Daylight at a good frame rate on ultra settings, 1080p. Now when I went to go back and play the game about a month later I have to turn it to low and turn down the resolution. I've been talking to both AMD and Dead By Daylight about it, but they haven't had a solution. I hoping that either there is a fix, and I didn't somehow damage my chip.

My specs are as follows:

Ryzen 2200g 1600mhz,2gb ram

16gb DDR4 Corsair Vengeance LPX 3000

Gigabyte AB350N-Gaming WiFi

Corsair H55 120mm AIO

600w EVGA semi modular PSU

1TB WD blue

120gb Kingston SSD

Cooler Master Elite 110 with 2 extra 80mm fans installed

 

Any tips/tricks and help or even suggestions about my build is appreciated as well.

Thanks in advance.

RIP. Not sure realy, I think 1.2V may be the max recommended voltage, but that's only what you're typing in, the actual voltage may be way higher.

Just make sure your memory is running in dual channel at the highest speed you can get it running. You could try reinstalling windows to fix any possible software issues.

This specific Gigabyte Motherboard has a known issue with Voltage. Check this video for more info:

That's the reason i've waited 6 months for the ASUS AM4 Mini-ITX and had to import it myself, as the gigabyte one is the only AM4 Mini-ITX being sold here.

Also, check your memory speed. Sometime I've noticed that is default back to 2133 instead of XMP, at least on mine.

Thanks for your guys' responses. I did check through the BIOS just to make sure it was at 3000 because I noticed that when I was setting it up, and it is still there. I gotta admit I'm feeling real dumb here though because I was dumb and impatient to get it working. I had it set at 1.3 initially and only turned it down to 1.28... because I didn't care as long as it was stable and under 1.3 which is what a Youtube vid told me. I've been putting the memory lower now and have it at 1.26250 volts for the graphics. I'm honestly just annoyed with myself as well, because I could've probably cut back on a lot of my things and got a 1060 3gb instead of doing this to myself and now probably degrading the already low performance. I'm going to try and reinstall windows, but if that doesn't work i'm going to be annoyed.
