how am i bottlenecked in PUBG

danillya123456 · Aug 24, 2017

ok so my specs are
CPU:amd fx(tm)-4300 quad-core processor, 3.8 Ghz
GPU: MSI Geforce GTX 1050TI
RAM:16 gb
MOTHERBOARD: ga-78lmt-s2
and i can only run PUBG on very low setting with the screen scale at 100 with around 30-50 fps
what am i being bottlenecked by?

if you need to know more tell me

cpu and video cards are weak for such a demanding game sorry mate but that is the truth only because the game is poorly optimized right now
I have an I7-4790K with a GTX 970 and I do about 80FPS on it, and I have friend that has a 7700 with dual 1080ti and he gets barely 120fps.
in this case its the game the culprit.

The Paladin :

alright thanks man like i was wondering because i can run all my games great but PUBG

dudio · Aug 24, 2017

The game is very CPU demanding, and unfortunately, the AMD FX-4300 is a budget quad-core processor. It is what is hurting you there

constantine_99 · Aug 24, 2017

GPU is fine, the FX 4300 are the problem there
on the other hand, PUBG are still on early access so optimization might still be otw

atomicWAR · Aug 24, 2017

CPU is your biggest bottleneck followed by your GPU. The game isn't well optimized as it is still early access being the other reason.

danillya123456 · Aug 24, 2017

ok thanks everyone i was planing on changing my motherboard to have a AMD4 cpu socket so i can get a ryzen cpu
can anyone recommend me a good gaming CPU my budget is around $300 for a cpu?
like an intel i7-7700k (obviously getting a motherboard to support an intel cpu)
or any Ryzen CPU
any recommendations will help

constantine_99 · Aug 24, 2017

i wonder why everybody said that GPU is also problem here?

i don't think 1050ti is a problem when u play at very low settings :/
some benchmarks even shows that paired with capable CPU, 1050ti can handle up to medium settings at playable fps

I'd look at a r5 1600/b350 motherboard and 16gb of (at least) 3000 mhz ram. Assuming the $300 was just for the CPU.

If it was for all of it, then

If it were me these are the two Ryzen CPUs I would be looking at...

https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113428 R7 1700 (8C/16T) @3ghz and overclockable (usually 3.8-4.1ghz) $299
https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113435 R5 1600 (6C/12T) @3.2ghz and overclockable (usually 3.8-4.1ghz) $214
if you have zero plans to overclock then you may consider this as well.
https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113434 R5 1600X (6C/12T) @3.6ghz and overclockable (usually 3.8-4.1ghz) $239

If going intel

https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819117727 i7 7700 4C/8T @3.6ghz not overclockable $306

if going to the less then to barely over 300 dollar mark.

danillya123456 :

Tom's Hardware always keep this article up to date: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/best-cpus,3986.html

Apparently, the Ryzen 5 1600 is $300 according to that article, and the AMD Ryzen 5 1600X is $240. If you can't go to AM4 sockets, you can get an AMD FX 8350 which is an AM3+ CPU, it should work well with PUBG.

danillya123456 · Aug 24, 2017

ok thanks for the suggestions
this is what i was planning on getting
LINK REMOVED
i already have a fan for the CPU
do you guys think think this would be a good upgrade from the specs i listed already?

atomicWAR · Aug 24, 2017

constantine_99 :

It is not a large problem by any means but it is not nonexistent either. He said he can only run on low with 30-50FPS...and yes we already stated his CPU was the biggest handicap here. Yes your are correct some folks can get medium at playable frame rates but not everyone can. That why I said CPU was the biggest issue followed by GPU. If the OP is willing to play on low then his GPU is fine...higher then it becomes a larger issue potentially.

atomicWAR · Aug 24, 2017

danillya123456 :

Blank listing for your PC.

danillya123456 · Aug 24, 2017

atomicWAR :

SORRY XD here is the link for wat i was planning on getting
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/RFXF6X

atomicWAR · Aug 24, 2017

That would be very solid CPU/motherboard/Ram set-up.

danillya123456 · Aug 24, 2017

atomicWAR :

alright cool i guess i need to start saving up XD i gotta about $230 on me thank for the help

danillya123456 · Aug 24, 2017

thanks for the help everyone
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/RFXF6X
^final list of what im getting
and i also have a fan

atomicWAR · Aug 24, 2017

You realize you don't have a heat-sink? If you have a heat-sink to use do you know if it is compatible with AM4 sockets? I am guessing that's what you meant in you have a fan.

danillya123456 · Aug 24, 2017

yea i already have everything i need i just need to get the CPU and im fine

danillya123456 · Aug 24, 2017

ok i added a cooler because i dont think it is commpatiable with a AM4 socket so just let me know what you think XD im new to PC so sorry if its a little cringy
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/HY8jM8

Supahos · Aug 24, 2017

Get a 1600 non x the stock cooler is as good if not better than a Evo 212 and it's cheaper. No reason to spend more money for the same or potentially worse performance

atomicWAR · Aug 24, 2017

Supahos :

If they don't plan to overclock that could change the story. The extra speed may be worth it to the OP. If overclocking I agree completely. There are better coolers out there and for the cost stock isn't bad in comparison.

danillya123456 · Aug 24, 2017

atomicWAR :

i dont have plans to overclock but if the cooler i put in isnt that good then can you link me a better cooler or is what i listed here https://pcpartpicker.com/list/HY8jM8 good enough

atomicWAR · Aug 24, 2017

The 212 evo isn't bad for the price, some argue it is great for it. Just do a search or two. I believe solutions like the Cryorig h7 is better IMO and the hyper 212X is just a hair better then the EVO. Supahos? What you think?
