Getting around 130fps avg frames, sometime dipping down into the 80’s, when playing CS2. Did a recent system upgrade and presumed performance would be better than this for the build?
Gear:
- Ryzen 7 5700x 3.4ghz
- 6750XT 12gb ddr6
- 16gb 3600mhz ddr4
- m.2 SSD
- 144hz , 1440 screen with freesync
- Running Mint latest version
Have tried in-game settings at lowest, still not managing to get a stable FPS above 144. Mucking with settings doesn’t seem to change performance much. Have set game to run with ‘-vulkan’ which helped reduce some stuttering issues, but not much performance gain.
I also only get <100fps with other games like BG3. Figured this kit would be able to handle modern games a bit better. Any ideas what’s going on?
EDIT: For future reference, the following changes were made and am now getting ~200fps
- Enabled asus EZ Tune in BIOS (rather than manually muck with each setting)
- Updated gpu drivers via ‘amdgpu -install’
- Enable gamemode
I can say about CS, I can run on average 150hz in low setting and FSR on performance, the game seems like shit, but you can. On medium, I can run around 120, and I feel that some maps are heavier.
Do you are playing on Xorg? Usually wayland can have some impact on your game.
Are you experiencing too much stuttering in all games? Recently I discovered my MOBO was trolling and I had to disable some energy related features.
Are you running your game with gamemode? It can make a great difference.
You can also try different kernels https://youtu.be/qNzd57b0h08

Thanks! Yep, Xorg. I mucked with some setting in BIOS, enabling EZ Tune, and have had a slight performance improvement from doing so, so something was throttling it there. Hadn’t heard of gamemode before, might give that a go, along with mangohud.
