Specs:
Ryzen 1700x
AMD Rx 580 8GB (Reference Model)
8GB DDR4 2400 MHz
Dell 460 Watt PSU (its a prebuilt)
1080p display 60 Hz

I have been playing fortnite/ GTA 5 on this system and I feel like my fps are not high enough. For fortnite, everything on low and distance epic, I barely get around 80-90 fps. For a system like that, I feel like those fps are too low. For GTA 5, everything on high (NOT very high) I get around 75. I have seen benchmarks where people have gotten easy 100fps. I have the latest drivers. I have tried to do a clean install but that failed too.

This sticks out the most to me: 8GB DDR4 2400 ram. 1st gen ryzen performs much better with higher ram speeds. Might get you that last 10% on your GPU utilization.

How old is the system? has it been cleaned? what are temps like?

Actually now that I am monitoring everything, gpu is at 50-70% and CPU at 30%. System is around 6-7months old. I regulary run cleaner.
