Playing on Ultra and I only get around 70-100avg fps. GPU & CPU are taxed at 50-70% load. Quite frustrated, but maybe I’m just greedy. Any help would be appreciated. 🙂 ---

> [@D5RAT](#): > > Think that’s about right for ultra preset Huh, that’s odd. I’ve heard of people with 1070’s that get that framerate on ultra. I also get 120-140 avg FPS on Battlefront II on ultra, presumably they use the exact same graphics so I don’t quite understand why BF1 is so much..worse; performance wise. ---

[https://goo.gl/images/R2ihrD](https://goo.gl/images/R2ihrD) Still it doesn’t make sense. Battlefront II 2017 runs incredibly smooth, and it’s a heck of a lot better ‘optimized’ than BF1. As previously stated I get 120-140fps on Ultra on that game. One would expect the same performance on BF1 ---

That’s a good point. Any ways to increase framerate without lowering the overall graphical fidelity? ---

I had Ryzen 1600 paired with GTX 1080. I had exact same issue you are describing. R1600 is too weak for maintain over 100 fps in this game. If you want high FPS i suggest to get a stronger CPU, if you want to stick with yours then be thankful for 60 or 75 fps. ---

He may have a point, Here’s a review from Tom’s Hardware showing a overclocked R5 1600 getting about 118 fps on Ultra, 1080 Res in SINGLE player mode. [http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/amd-ryzen-5-1600-cpu,5073-4.html](http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/amd-ryzen-5-1600-cpu,5073-4.html) The key here is single player. In multiplayer, these numbers will drop. Hope this helps. ---

But for me multiplayer was unplayable with 120 or 144 hz resolution at 1080p. Lowering graphics did not help. ---

I run a Ryzen 1600 @ 3.7 GHz + 16GB ram + 1060 6GB and easily maintain 60-70 fps @ ultra 1080p. Silky smooth. Only occasionally get dips in Amiens 64 players. But that’s it.

I take it you’ve got at least 16GB of ram? His gpu was probably cpu limited. 1070 or your 1060 would of been a better choice. The easiest surefire way to tell if you are cpu limited. IS if changing resolutions changes the fps at all. If it doesn’t, it means you are cpu limited. I think alot of people are finding out that cpu matters more for gaming. Even in this day and age. The kids nowadays for some reason believe otherwise because they are told so. SO they end up with imbalanced systems. I blame anarchists 🙂 ---

The only solution you got is to upgrade the CPU. When i had the R1600(even OC’ed at 3.7 because i could not oc more) i had issues in BF1(just like you describe them) and in GTA 5. I personally hate Intel but i was forced to switch to I7 8700 and now i do not have any issues, 60fps in GTA 5 at 4k\_dsr @ultra and 120fps(because i cap it) in BF 1 at 1080p ultra settings. Make sure you use your RAM in dual channel and OC it to 3000mhz+ if possible and have the AMD Ryzen Powerplan in Windows. ---
