So, My Ryzen 1600 is annoying the living hell out of me and am not entirely sure whats causing it.

So, I can't run the latest bios in MSI for my 350m due to it failing 3dmarks timing issues, So am stuck using 1.5v which has a overclocking bug causing the cpu to lock to 1.5ghz if you touch cpu voltage, Fixed in 1.6 but as I said, 1.6 does strange things to my computers timings.

In BF1, My FPS ranges from 70-120fps, That range is huge. I have a 1080ti so its not like am lacking raw power. CPU doesnt seem to be bottlenecked too, Nor GPU. There both just in limbo around 60-70%.

I also get insanely low FPS in Garrys mod, though being a old source engine I can sort of understand but I get lows of 40 fps in somemaps where people with 970s and 4000 series cpus get triple my fps.

Witcher 3 will run around 100 fps but again I do drop to like 90 fps someplaces where benchmarks say I should avg around 140fps.

This is all at 1080p, I assume that even though my CPU inst showing 100% usage its bottlenecking my gpu in every single game I play heavily, Causing insanely low fps drops.

Not sure what to do, Maybe it is a bug, Anyone shed some light.
 
I guess I answered my own question now.

CPU Bottlenecks?

Two other things to try are setting windows power profile to maximum and also set Gpu to optimise performance if possible. The main issue is what is making your cpu hit 100%. I also turned off superfetch as it was affecting performance too much.

Both of these are always set for me.

My fps with older drivers in now, Unstalled with DDU.

CPU is overclocked to 3.9ghz now with 3200mhz 14/14/14/34 samsung B DIEram.

1080TI is running stock.

My FPS ranges around 80-90 around heavily populated bits, kinda annoying.
 
BF1 did look like a game bottlenecked by Ryzen (at launch with slow memory) at 1080p, 1800X was 15% slower than a 7700K.

Although with more recent updates a 1600 @ 4ghz and 3200mhz memory, it isn't behind a 7700K anymore.
