where you can get a Windows 10 serial
[4]
key for only 17 and by using my discount
[8]
code you get a 20 off discount making it
[12]
even less 14 after the payment you'll
[16]
receive the serial key and to activate
[18]
it just go to your Windows settings and
[20]
introduce that same key and voila you
[24]
have an activated system for only 14
[26]
dollars
[29]
what uh
[32]
hello guys this gameplays I'm Fabio
[34]
Pisco and I'm really happy to bring you
[36]
a new video today really really happy
[38]
the video of today is about how to fix
[41]
your low GPU usage and well there are
[44]
many causes to it so without any further
[47]
delays let's go to the first one
[49]
[Music]
[53]
first one is CPU bottleneck what happens
[56]
is that most people when buying a new
[58]
build they don't seek the balance
[60]
they for example buy
[63]
um let's say an RX 5700 XT on a or an
[66]
RTX 2070 super and then pair it with the
[70]
ryzen 5. 1600 or a ryzen 3 1200 or for
[75]
example they have a really old CPU and
[77]
they pair it with a high-end GPU that
[81]
doesn't work because well the GPU will
[83]
be able to put to push for example uh
[86]
200 FPS the CPU will only be able to
[89]
push 100 so the GPU usage will be around
[92]
50 percent because the the CPU can only
[95]
can actually push half of what the GPU
[98]
can so the GPU won't be in need of
[101]
working at 100 so for example if you are
[104]
playing at over 100 FPS and if you are
[107]
having low GPU usage that means that you
[110]
have a CPU bottleneck how to fix it so
[114]
the first thing you can try is a CPU
[117]
overclock if you have a ryzen CPU it
[119]
unlocked and unlocked CPU a ryzen CPU
[122]
all of them are unlocked or for example
[123]
if you have an Intel K version you can
[126]
try and overclock the CPU that will give
[129]
you a nice Advantage depending on how
[131]
far you overclock for example if you are
[133]
using a ryzen 7 1700 it has a base a
[137]
base clock of 3.2 gigahertz
[140]
if you overclock it to 3.8 you will see
[144]
in fact that decent performance boost if
[146]
you are using for example an i7 1700k
[149]
for corset threads you are using for
[152]
example at 4 gigahertz if you overclock
[154]
it to 4.8 gigahertz you will see a nice
[157]
performance boost the GPU usage will
[159]
ramp up a bit for example from 50
[161]
percent to 60 or 70 percent and you'll
[165]
have more FPS because now your CPU can
[168]
also push more FPS basically that's how
[170]
it works you can also go to the windows
[173]
power plan and use always at least I
[176]
always use high performance mode if you
[178]
have a ryzen CPU from the third gen you
[181]
can use also the AMD ryzen performance
[184]
mode if that still doesn't fix it if
[186]
that still doesn't cut it well maybe you
[189]
have to upgrade your CPU because your
[191]
GPU is too strong for your CPU
[194]
[Music]
[197]
the second one is Ram bottleneck well
[201]
what happens most of times is that
[202]
people not much into attack they don't
[205]
know what single Channel and dual
[206]
channel is if you want to watch more
[208]
about that I have a video here of single
[211]
channel one time 16 gigabytes versus two
[213]
times eight gigabytes versus four times
[215]
four gigabytes so basically single
[218]
channel uh will have off the bandwidth
[221]
of the Dual channel so basically in some
[224]
scenarios you you'll have way less
[226]
performance and that is also connected
[229]
to the CPU it is a ram CPU thing
[232]
um so for example the CPU bottleneck
[235]
before may also be due to the fact that
[238]
you're using only single Channel Ram
[240]
so you have half the bandwidth so the
[242]
CPU can't push as many FPS as you want
[245]
to that is one of the ram causes the
[248]
other Ram causes
[250]
um maybe the ram frequency for example
[252]
the the ryzen first generation and
[254]
second generation are way more RAM
[256]
sensitive than the third generation
[258]
Intel CPUs are a bit less sensitive than
[262]
the the third generation but also Ram
[265]
sensitive it depends on the ram
[267]
frequency let's say if you are using a
[268]
ryzen 5 3600 but you are using
[272]
2133 megahertz Rams that will bottleneck
[276]
in high FPS uh scenarios for example if
[279]
you are playing at 60 FPS those Ram
[282]
those Ram frequencies won't really
[284]
affect much the gameplay but you are if
[286]
you are playing over 80 90 100 or more
[290]
the 21 33 megahertz Ram will be the
[294]
problem believe me and well as for the
[296]
possible fixes get dual Channel Ram if
[299]
you have one stick of ram get get to
[301]
four sticks of RAM is also dual channel
[303]
in the mainstream motherboards any any
[305]
ryzen 5 V 350 450 x 370 all the M4
[312]
socket and all the mainstream uh Intel
[315]
CPUs and the Intel motherboards use only
[318]
dual channel so if you are using if you
[321]
are using four sticks of ram it's still
[322]
dual channel so get at least 12 channel
[325]
never use a single Ram stick always two
[329]
or four if possible as for the ram
[331]
frequency you can try to overclock your
[333]
RAM frequency that will boost your
[335]
performance and in the same time it will
[338]
increase the the usage of your GPU
[341]
because your CPU and RAM can push more
[343]
FPS basically that's it get will Channel
[346]
and try to overclock your RAM if you
[349]
want a video on that I also have this
[351]
video that may help you in some way
[354]
[Music]
[357]
the third one is software cited and what
[360]
I mean by software cited well my
[362]
software cited I mean for example update
[365]
your bios your motherboard bias update
[368]
your Windows update your drivers and
[370]
update your chipset drivers if you have
[374]
an AMD socket an AMD motherboard and on
[377]
an AMD CPU of course chipset drivers are
[379]
a must most people fail to do this so go
[382]
to the AMD website download the latest
[384]
chipset drivers available and install
[387]
them after installing the GPU drivers
[389]
this is a must and will fix most of your
[393]
problems okay and another possible cause
[396]
is that maybe you have a up or a
[398]
messed up Windows installation you may
[400]
be you may be having a completely messed
[403]
up Windows installation so try and
[406]
format your PC install Windows do a
[408]
fresh install of Windows of everything
[410]
you had before and see if the problem
[413]
persists it's a problem is solved then
[416]
you have your answer
[418]
[Music]
[421]
the fourth and last one is game engine
[424]
silent most games use uh old a really
[427]
old game engine and use let's say four
[430]
to six cores Max
[432]
so imagine you have a CPU with only
[435]
no imagine you have a CPU with 16
[437]
threads 8 cards and 16 threads but the
[441]
single core performance is low for
[443]
example ryzen 7 1700 and you are using a
[446]
lower RAM frequency which will make the
[449]
the single core performance even lower
[451]
in that scenario
[453]
it is a mix of the game engine and of
[457]
course the CPU because the CPU not being
[460]
at 100 doesn't mean properly that you're
[463]
not having a CPU bottleneck because if
[465]
the game only use four cores and you
[467]
have 16
[469]
your your usage will be low but at the
[472]
same time the CPU will be bottlenecking
[474]
because on that for on those four cores
[477]
that the game uses
[478]
the CPU is slow so that will make the
[481]
bottleneck so basically it is a mix of
[484]
CPU bottleneck and game engine
[486]
bottleneck technically it's not a CPU
[489]
bottleneck but in this case scenario we
[491]
can call it that a CPU bottleneck slash
[494]
game engine bottleneck how to fix it
[497]
well simple the only thing you can
[499]
really do is like I said before over
[501]
overclock Rams overclock CPU but one
[505]
thing you can try is seeing if the game
[506]
has a patch for a newer API let's say
[510]
for example instead of using the X11 the
[512]
game can use Vulcan if the game can use
[515]
Vulcan in almost any case scenario where
[518]
the game can use Vulcan or the X12
[520]
that will improve a lot the CPU overhead
[524]
of the API and you'll get way more
[526]
performance basically uh the newer apis
[530]
tend to put more stress on the GPU than
[532]
on the CPU and they are more effectively
[535]
Distributing the work across all course
[538]
so if you change API you will probably
[541]
have a pretty good amount of boost
[544]
performance you can watch this video for
[546]
example of the X11 and 12 versus Vulcan
[549]
API that will Enlighten you a bit in
[551]
some scenarios and well guys that's it
[553]
there's not much more to say but one
[555]
thing one thing is balance you need to
[558]
have balanced uh hardware parts you
[561]
don't want a four course For Thread CPU
[563]
with an RTX 2070 super you have to
[566]
balance between all the things that you
[569]
are that you are using for example
[571]
this is a pretty fun case scenario so
[574]
you have a ryzen 5 let's say a ryzen 3
[577]
1200 a ryzen 3 1200 with an RTX 10 uh
[583]
2080 super so it seems like it will
[586]
bottleneck right itty pets it depends
[589]
for example on the resolution you play
[591]
and the amount of FPS your GPU can push
[594]
at that same resolution in that same
[597]
case scenario for example imagine you
[599]
are playing at 1080p even at ultra
[601]
settings that same RTX 2080 super will
[604]
be able to push more than let's say 100
[607]
150 FPS in most games and that means
[610]
that the ryzen 3 1200 will bottleneck
[613]
hard because in most games it won't be
[615]
able to push more than 80 or 90 FPS at
[619]
Max maybe 70 80 FPS at Max in some games
[622]
but now imagine you play at 4K let's say
[625]
that the the RTX 1080 super will be able
[628]
to push a Max of 60 not 60 but let's say
[631]
80 to 90 FPS 70 to 90 FPS
[636]
it means that the the ryzen 5 1200 will
[640]
be a bottleneck not at all in most case
[643]
scenarios since you are pushing only
[644]
from 70 to 90 FPS in most game scenarios
[648]
ryzen 5 ryzen 3 1200 won't be a
[652]
bottleneck or at least a really big
[654]
bottleneck because you are playing at
[655]
the low FPS number but now if you play
[658]
it let's say at a 1440p 1440p the GPU is
[663]
still able to push over 100 FPS in most
[666]
games nowadays that means that the ryzen
[669]
3 1200 wheel bottle will bottleneck
[671]
sorry so overall it depends on the
[674]
hardware parts you have but also on what
[677]
you want to achieve with your with your
[679]
build if you play at 4K if you don't
[681]
want more than 60 70 FPS even a weaker
[685]
CPU will do it
[687]
maybe with a bit more stutters here and
[689]
there but overall it will do it pretty
[692]
fine but if you are trying to get for
[695]
example uh over 100 FPS in almost any
[698]
game scenario you want the best CPU you
[701]
can grab for take the most advantage of
[704]
your GPU overall it is a balance of
[708]
these all of what you want of the CPU
[711]
GPU Rams and overall it is a balance of
[715]
the system you want to have in
[717]
everything you build hardware-sided so
[720]
