when i play baulders gate or palworld or even overwatch on ultra settings, the computer sounds like its about to take off and i get alot of frame studdering. it can get to over 150-200, but then jiggers down to 40-50.
#heres my build, is there any reason im still getting bad FPS on high settiings

you can find a used 6800xt for 400 usd https://pcpartpicker.com/list/zCdRHG

Ah. I think you’d find that swapping to any Nvidia GPU with fix most of your problems.
red raft
you think so?

The 5000 series were notorious for being unreliable, mostly due to driver issues. I think * most* of them have eventually been fixed but it’s still a lot worse relative to how stable Nvidia is. That’s one of the reasons why they can afford to charge more than AMD, it just works

I can’t tell weather your trolling or not
Swapping to nvidea WILL NOT fix your problem nvidea isn’t better nowadays for gaming

yea thats the impression i was under aswell that nvidia use to be king, but here in the past 4-5 years AMD has cleanly closed that gap

Yeah awhile ago amd gpu drivers sucked and amd was stupid to buy now there drivers are (hot take warning) better than nvidea the only way they lack a little bit is in rt and fsr and dlss are almost the same nowadays
Only reason to buy nvidea is if you do hardcore 3d rendering
That’s all coming from someone who went from a modern nvidea to a modern amd*
The only part in there that’s up for debate is the amd drivers being better they are at minimum the same

If you want more Performance for the Price go for AMD. If you want RT Performance and DLSS (DLSS 3.5 on RTX cards gets you lile 40% mpre FPS)

with your setup, i'd upgrade the cpu, gpu and psu, the n1 is a tier F psu which tbh should be swapped out asap

nope, considering current driver issues with nvidia, though if they went and upgraded their setup to a 5800x3d with something like an rx6800xt

dlss 3.5 is not accessible to nvidia cards that 20 series or older afaik
though fsr 3 also exists

Comparing FSR 3.0 to DLSS is like comparing a sledgehammer to a fist. But the AMD card is still better if youre on a Budget thats true. (You could also get a 2080ti for 400 bucks)
Or get an A770 or wait for the New gen of Intel GPUs. They have improved greatly with recent driver updates.
The A770 has 16GB Vram and is also pretty powerful. RT is also bettet than AMD and you have XeSS
fast cape
xess works with amd also btw
though with intel, it does rt at 4k res better than nvidia can do

- Is XMP enabled?
- Did you put the game on SSD?
red raft
Xmp?
twin quail
XMP, DOCP, whatever you wanna call it
red raft
And yea the games are on an ssd
twin quail
Make sure your ram is actually running at 3200mhz
red raft
I'm not familiar with xmp or docp
twin quail
Your RAM might not be running at 3200mhz
red raft
How do I verify that
twin quail
Yeah
Then it’s most likely just the game
Stutters do happen sometimes, no matter the game
red raft
it feels very frequently and on most games i try
twin quail
Just keep your drivers up to date
Try closing background apps
Might just be a lot of background activity, seeing that your ram usage is like 20+gb
red raft
looks like its largly my browser lol
twin quail
Also make sure that temps are in control
If temps are too high, it could cause thermal throttling, which can manifest in small stutters
red raft
ok ill try to keep an eye on that
rotund jay
as they don't cause games to crash, yes they are
Weirdly I've never had that problem
I've had it with amd tho
Games stuttering like mad
exotic basin
Amd drivers aren't better than nvidia
Yeah games crash less on amd
exotic basin
Games stuttering like mad
When you switch from nvidea to amd you just need to uninstall the games and reinstall them
Or yes they will be stuttering but that’s the same for if you go from amd to nvidea
+when switching company’s you have to run ddu

That was on a system that only ever had an amd GPU
