Hi everyone, I recently finished a build but I'm getting much lower FPS than expected in eSports titles (130 FPS in R6S, 170 in Valorant, 140 in Fortnite) even on low/competitive settings.

The Specs:

  • CPU: Intel Core i5-11400F
  • GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6600 8GB
  • Mobo: MSI B560M PRO-E
  • RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2x8) 3600MHz
  • PSU: Sharkoon SHP Bronze 700W
  • Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper H412R

I've already updated BIOS and any drivers to latest version i also set my CPU power to 100W in the bios. I should, however, mention that I although I have XMP active I cannot get my RAM to run at the speed of 3600MHz, anything above 3066MHz causes the PC to freeze or crash constantly. I am currently forced to run it manually at 3066MHz.

Is the RAM instability the reason for my low FPS? Why can't I hit 3600MHz on a B560 board? Are those performance normal with this setup? Do u have any advice on how to stabilize or improve them?
