Ryzen 7 2700x CPU w/ GTX 1070 performing disgustingly bad

[TitanGaming]

I mainy use my computer to play games like league of legends, GTA V, Fortnite, and some CSGO. 

I ran GTA V at max settings and the FPS usually dips down to around 45-50. I don't know why and its kind of scarying me.

I tried fortnite at ultra settings and the FPS was unbelievably bad. It constantly dips all the way down to about 30-50 FPS. 

Anyone has any solutions to this problem?

my monitor is plugged into my GPU

Need more info about the system. Ram, CPU clocks, temps, screen resolution.

[TitanGaming]

Ram is 1300 MHZ 8 GB, CPU is not overclocked. 4 ghz base clock, 3.55 avg. 

CPU idle: 40 C   CPU gaming:  55-60 C

GPU idle: 28 C   GPU gaming: 50-60 C

Screen res: 1080x1920 at 60hz overclocked to 74hz

1300 MHz?

Do you mean 1333 MHZ ( 2666 MHz effective) ?

Which RAM kit did you buy?

Minimum speed for DDR4 memory is 1066 MHz (2133 MHz effective).

 

The R7-2700X is rated for 3.7 GHz with Turbo Boost up to 4.3 GHz Max.

If you are seeing LOWER than 3.7 GHz, then your CPU is thermal throttling or something.

[TitanGaming]

yeah it is 1333 mhz. It was from a prebuilt pc and i transferd the parts while building a new pc. 

The CPU and GPU and mobo is new. 

IDK what thermal throttling is but when i was building it, the thermal paste went all over the CPU and there was alsop a time where the thermal paste was so sticky that it stuck the cpu onto it and ripped it right out of the socket when the lock thingy on

The lowest speed it seems is compatible with an AM4 motherboard is 2133mhz. Im not sure how your RAM is showing 1333mhz. Can you run a benchmark like 3D Mark firestrike extreme? 

 

I think your having a bottleneck with RAM. I bet your CPU performance is hampered which is turn is hurting your GPU as well.

You're most likely bottlenecked by your RAM.

[TitanGaming]

idk. i went to the bios to i think like overclock it to 2666 mhz.

Make sure your RAM is REALLY running at 1333 MHz (2666).

The motherboard will default it to 1066 (2133) unless you manually enable XMP (XMP name can vary, depends on the motherboard).

 

Thermal throttling = CPU is overheating, reducing speed to prevent itself from getting roasted.

Download and open up HWMonitor and check the CPU temperature.

i have the software. It says 38-41 C. Im onkly browsing internet rn.

Can i have your discor or anything to communicate?

I'm not at home right now...

Also, upload a screenshot of HWMonitor.

Get MSI afterburner to monitor PC vitals in-game like CPU/GPU temps/clock, RAM clock and usage

[TitanGaming]

so do i just get better ram and thats it?

First you need to see what is causing FPS drops.

Don't go rush and buy things....
Fix the issue with current hardware first.
Likely a software/driver conflict or setting somewhere that needs to be changed.
(I'd always reinstall GPU drivers when encountering FPS problems, then source what software is the cause after checking drivers)

[TitanGaming]

Ok i have installed after burner. What do i do from there

How do I find what is casuing my FPS drops?

[PopsicleHustler]

Get in game and see what is happening to your parts - CPU/GPU/RAM. If there is usage drops, overheating, bottleneck. Sec, I make a screen to explain how it works.

[TitanGaming]

Can You add me on facebook, discord or anything else so we can chat?

[TitanGaming]

Ok thank you for showing! I will benchmark fortnite at max settings right now

[PopsicleHustler]

What you're looking for is RAM/CPU/GPU usage. Tick RAM speeds to make sure its running at 2666Mhz.

[TitanGaming]

wow. Im shooked. It's running smooth again with 120+ fps. 

yes, the ram is being used at 2400 mhz (around there) 

IDK why jsut sometimes it performs so bad

[airdeano]

what OS? winx win7?

[TitanGaming]

Windows 10
