Fps low

Status
Not open for further replies.
Hi, I have a GTX 1660 and a ryzen 3 2200g, and the FPS is really low, I play csgo at 1280 x 960 on low settins, the FPS gets around 95-130 sometimes 65. which is not good for the specs. on youtube the same pc gets 200-260 fps. I also tried hellblade on 1080p at medium and the FPS goes to 25 sometimes.

I know that my cpu is not very good, but the fps should be much higher than it is. I already formatted the pc, installed the latest drivers and its the same.

I'm about to buy a R5 3600, but I'm afraid that the cpu is not the real problem and the fps continue low.

PC Specs

- asrock a320m-hd

- RAM: 2x8gb at 2666mhz (one is ballistix and the other one is hyperx, I know mixing 2 different brands is not good but thats probably not the problem. it is in dual channel)

- CPU: ryzen 3 2200g

- GPU: GTX 1660 6gb

- 2x SSD Kingston 240gb

- Power source 500W 80 plus
 
Considering CS:GO can run off of integrated graphics at a solid 60+, I think we are looking at a different issue.

Let's get some more information:

Please download and run speccy.

Once you have ran speccy, follow the instructions to upload a snapshot found here.

To publish a Speccy profile to the Web:

  1. In Speccy, click File, and then click Publish Snapshot.
  2. In the Publish Snapshot dialog box, click Yes to enable Speccy to proceed.
  3. Speccy publishes the profile and displays a second Publish Snapshot dialog box. You can open the URL in your default browser, copy it to the clipboard, or close the dialog box.

Please look in the computer and tell your exact model of PSU, that seems under powered to me, especially if it is a low quality 80+ Bronze unit.
Look for the model, wattage, and efficiency rating^

Different models of ram could cause issues, might be worth pulling them and comparing, while you're at it you could test 1-by-1

Thanks, I'll do it when I get home.
 
1. You are running low on system space, try deleting some old files/programs and running the following programs, try to keep at least 20-25% of your disks as free space.

Run Disk Cleanup (check all the boxes) this will delete things such as your recycling bin, so make sure you don't have any files you want to keep.

Run Defragment and Optimize Drives, run this on your drives.


2. Disable any overclocking or changes to power/performance settings

Turn off XMP/any overclocking you may have done (if any)

Settings > System > Power and sleep > Additional power settings
Make sure your power plan is set to balanced, anything else could tamper with the wrong settings and cause issues.


3. Check for Operating System Corruption

Right click on the Windows logo in the bottom left and select Windows Powershell (Admin)
Run these three commands separately:

sfc /scannow

Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth

Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth


These will take a while to run, do not close out of Powershell while they are running, if one fails then move onto the next and then loop back around.

Note: It doesn't hurt to make a system backup before you make all these changes, save any important files of folders. While these changes shouldn't cause any issues, better to be safe than sorry.

4. Unplug unnecessary devices.
If you have a gamepad, extra monitor, external hard drive/flash drive, or anything that is not essential to using the computer plugged in, unplug it. You should be left with your monitor, mouse and keyboard.


Once you have completed all of these tasks, restart it (using the restart option in the power menu) and re-test.

On a side note, that PSU is junk, you should invest in a higher quality unit with a good warranty. My vote is always on Seasonic, but you could use some other brands as well, EVGA, Corsair, beQuiet, etc. Buy into a quality name with a long warranty, a 600W 80+ Gold unit would suit your needs.
