So this is a strange one
AMD 1600x
Noctua U14s
Corsair Vengeance 3000mhz, 16gb
Asrock X370 Taichi
Vega 56 Reference (Asrock)
EVGA 650 P2
Just updated Chipset drivers today
Bios 4.4
Windows High Performance
I got my new Vega 56 upgrading from an old GTX 670, super excited, loaded up my favorite game, Warframe, (beit not the most demanding) To see what FPS I get.
In Fortuna I was getting 40 fps. Sheer panic, run all of the benchmarks, all of the games and the GPU checks out, in the games that it happens,, GPU usage isn't even close to 100%. So clearly a CPU issue
I did a fresh install of Windows 10 to see if that's the issue, nope.
Since then Ive just accepted it, and noticed other games, PUBG, Blops, Sea Of Thieves all dip below 50 fps at times. Thinking it was just a 1600x thing
For the giggles I decided to throw my CPU back to stock (Normally at 4.0). Wouldn't you know it. 100+ fps in the same place I was getting 40-50 fps in Warframe. I went through the gauntlet of games and synthetics. Benchmarks show a lower score, but Im hitting 10%-50% better FPS in games I was previously having trouble with.
After playing with every setting I could think of in my Bios, it comes down to: Any kind of overclocking (manual, pstate, BLCK) if I set it myself, I get huge fps drops. However, if I leave the board in auto, the chip only hits 3.7ghz, but the FPS gains are huge. Overclocking to 4ghz manually or Pstate, shows appropriate gains in scores for Synthetic benchmarks, but massive dips in FPS in games
Doesn't matter if I set the overclock to 3.6 or 4.0, or even match the exact settings auto was doing by itself, as long as *I* set the frequency *myself* in some way, the same issue happens. Doing the Google rounds really hasn't come up with much. Typical check your temps, could be an unstable OC, make sure you're in high performance, could be an XFR thing (doubt it), ect ect
