New 1600$ PC build and I cannot figure out why old PC outperforms it gameplay wise?!?!
Posted: 18 Jan 2023, 08:19
So Ive been lurking here for a while but I cannot seem to find a post that really just resolved my issue...it's as if my problem is a combination of a LOT of issues.
I finally pulled the trigger on a new PC it's build is Ryzen 5800x3D, 6700xt mech, gen 4 ssd, Asus tuf b570 plus wifi main board, 4 dimms of mushkin single rank 3200 microtransfers cl16 memory, rm750 Corsair gold 750 watt psu and I think that's all the important components...
Hardware I'm coming from was a budget pc with a Ryzen 2200g that I had upgraded adding a 1070ti about 8 months ago.
A month or so ago I bought a ViewSonic xg2431 the display is amazing and really improved my performance on my old PC but I couldn't hit stable 240 plus frame rate. It was bothering me because with Nvidia reflex + boost in overwatch and ~200 frames I felt like everything had finally clicked like I could finally aim on PC after 2 years from console. It was amazing but I could only perform well when the game wasnt tanking frames so I said hey this is awesome I'm gonna just upgrade my pc and I'll be set .... Now something is incredibly off and I introduced wayyyy too many variables.
So when I built my new PC I had been reading on windows 11 and most places had been saying it was now stable and I thought the UI was cool, well windows 11 caused some strange extreme input lag where it felt like there was always high demanding processes running. I tried so many tweaks from here.
Disabled screen based optimizations
enabled high dpi upscaling and making it application controlled
removed game bar completely using registry, I enabled resizable bar and above 4g decoding for SAM
I tried hpet on and off from device management settings and ENABLED felt much better.
I honestly can't remember them all but it felt like microstutters and bad input lag in ow2. So today I tried downgrading windows. I did a clean install through the media creation tool and I'm now on windows 10.
Windows 10 immediately felt snappier I quickly unticked enhance pointer precision and installed overwatch to test. I updated and got all drivers it's windows 10 22r2. Performance in windows 10 feels more responsive but my fans seem much louder and frames seem slightly lower. I try my first game of overwatch after applying the basic game settings (enhance pointer precision and 240hz) the game is unplayable again.....except this time my mouse feels like it's on ice.
Totally different mouse feel like it's snappier but I cannot control it at all but just a week ago I felt I had been playing out of my mind for 2 days with 48-60% widow crit accuracies now it's like I'm playing with zero muscle memory and zero control.
I have been using a Razer viper 8k for a few months now and always used 4k polling 1600dpi 2.56 in game. On my Nvidia PC this felt great but on new windows 11 pc felt like bad input stutters/ latency issues on windows 10 it's more responsive not perfect by any means but better but my mouse feel and control makes it absolutely unplayable something is definitely off. Please if anyone knows something I'm losing my sanity.
