ive been using the build ive got now for about a year now and ive seen some serious fps problems in games that would require ram to be fast or responsive. My build is a i5-6500, h110m-A D3, 8gb of ddr3 ram and a zotac 6gb 1060. Right so as you can see im using a ddr3 motherboard with a skylake cpu and skylakes are meant to use ddr4 or the low voltage ddr3. In games like h1z1 you can see the effect my ram has as i will get 10-20 fps in the cities with this cpu but i would get a constant 40 with my old cpu which is a a10 6800k. Same with battlegrounds, i have stutters and horrendous fps in dense areas but my friends with similar setups dont get any where near the fps drop i get when in those areas. As a example my friend with 1070 but basically the same cpu as me gets over 120 fps in h1z1 no matter where they are and i can bearly reach 30 when im outside of cities. Edit: In overwatch it takes about 10-20 seconds for models to also load in the game after i have joined one and i know this is a ram issue as when i toke out a stick it did the same thing but toke much longer to load in the models.
Question: Can this be because the motherboard is slowing down my ram and making it low performing to protect the cpu?
