Hi All
so ive recently put together another PC, had i'm having some issues.
Specs:
Ryzen 2600
MSI B450I Gaming AC
Corsair LTX DDR4 3000 16GB (2x8)
Radeon Vega 64
650W Corsair RM PSU
So i bought the system off a friend, and he had the same as above on a B450 Tomahawk max board, with 32GB ram, 4 of the 8 gig sticks.
When i got the PC from him, i ran some updates, installed warzone and tested it. All seemed fine. i was getting a higher frame rate than my other PC (10600K, GTX1070, 16GB) on the same settings, so i was pretty happy.
I bought the above ITX board from the marketplace, and re housed the lot into a smaller case.
So it all works ok, but the GPU usage doesnt sit at max while gaming, and the CPU doesnt either. Temperatures appear fine, i just cant figure it out.
the only weird thing is that the board cant seem to run the RAM at anything other than 2133MHz. Ive got two sets of corsair lpx 3000 (cmk16gx4m2b3000c15), which is "on the list" plus one set of 3200 lpx. If i run one stick, it will run at the proper speed. Its not then running dual channel, and is only 8GB. I dont know which would have the bigger impact, if either would be big enough to cause this?
running one stick at the right speed didnt seem to make too much difference to CPU/GPU usage.
I still have the tomahawk board, so i could swap everything back again to see if its still working well there, but that isnt a 5 minute job, so if anyone could suggest anything, that would be great.
Am i missing something? This is my first time with Ryzen, and first AMD since an Athlon XP.
In Warzone, adding more antialiasing and details didnt seem to increase GPU usage, but dropped fps.
In Apex, it runs pretty fast anyway. removing the 144fps cap it runs the GPU flat out in the menu, but once the game starts it drops. setting a load of settings lower and turning off antialiasing didnt really change GPU or frame rate, it just looked horrid.
