Hello everyone!

I’m posting this because I need help upgrading my PC components. However, I don’t know where to start.

Here are my current specs:

Operating system : Nobara Linux

Processor : AMD Ryzen 5 5600, 6x 3500 MHz

CPU cooler : Deepcool Gammaxx C40

Graphic card : ASUS Radeon RX 6800, ASUS TUF-RX6800-O16G-GAMING, 16 GB GDDR6

Motherboard : ASUS TUF B450-PLUS GAMING II

RAM : 32 GB DDR4-RAM, Dual Channel (4x 8 GB), 3200 MHz

Storage :I have several SSDs so that’s fine

Case : Deepcool CL500, black.

Power supply : 750 Watt MSI MPG A750 GF, 90% efficiency (80 Plus Gold certified)

I would like to point out that I play on a 2k 144hz 27" monitor and I want to stick with full AMD because it’s more convenient for me on Linux.

Even though I don’t think there’s a bottleneck, I’m looking to improve my setup primarily because I play The Finals in 2k, and with the graphics on low, I often drop below 80 fps at times (I would like to stay at 120fps).

Thank you for reading!

    I think there is something wrong with either your config or they fucked the game optimization. I have played the finals on 1440p on a fucking gtx 1070 and easily got 100 fps. You should be getting much more on 1080p on a 6800xt.

    Have you used something like psensor to get a graph of CPU/GPU/RAM usage and temps so you can get an idea of whats going on.

    I cannot recommend buying a new GPU at the moment and upgrading from a 6800xt seems absurd.

        Could be lots of stuff. Bad bios config (boost clocks, multithreading, no XMP/EXPO ram profile), wrong gpu power limits, proton issues, steam issues, something else hogging resources, bad game settings, …

          I replied to another comment:

          However, I just noticed that my 4 RAM sticks weren’t exactly the same (I didn’t build the PC).

          This image comes from the CPU-X software.

          2x Kingston 99U5428-063.A00LF

          2x Kingston KF3200C16D4/8GX

          They are all configured in the same way:

          • Type : DIMM DDR4 Synchronous Unbuffered (Unregistered)
          • Size : 8Go
          • Speed : 3000 MT/s (configured & max)
          • Tension : 1.2V

          I think it could be coming from here, knowing that I don’t know anything about BIOS settings so it could also be coming from a bad setting in the bios.

            You should really try out psensor, only log the things i wrote in the first comment and then post a screenshot of that here that includes idle and gameplay system load. It will make it much easier to understand whats limiting your performance.
