Friend and I played Battlefield One last night on our Xbox One consoles last night and had a blast. I am still amazed at the graphics of that game on the "lowly" Xbox One. I just don't see a need to upgrade right now and I suspect that is going to be a huge challenge to overcome for the new...

After browsing in more detail other TimeSpy scores I think what I am finding is normal. My 480 is a standard clocked one and if I look at scores with the same GPU clocks they are about what everyone else has. I am thinking there was some anomaly the first time I benchmarked. Still am...

Well, updated my motherboard's bios. I got my ram to run stable at 2400 and updated AMD radeon drivers. I did a clean install and used DDU in safe mode to get rid of all nvidia and amd drivers and registries. I also made sure the 3dmark setting in the Radeon drivers were set to the global...

Still have not had a chance to play more with my system. New bios came out for my motherboard and I know both Nvidia and AMD came out with updated gpu drivers. Have to do more testing. However, with the prices I am seeing used 480s go for (because of the mining craze) I am tempted just to...

I see Microcenter and Best Buy already upped most of the 570 and 580 cars $50 to $75.00.

Thanks everyone, hopefully this weekend, I will have time and try your suggestions.

Thanks I will try that. I did use DDU to make sure everything was cleaned out but I will try your suggestion.

So does anyone have any idea why my 480 score would drop so much? Or was the first run some anomaly.

Check this out. Screenshots of 2 Time Spy results with the Ryzen 1600 and Radeon 480. One I did when I first built the computer and one this past week. The first score was 4417 and they have the Ryzen turbo clock at 3700. The second score I did in the last week was 3535 with a max turbo clock...

I'm getting drastically different Time Spy scores between the 2 cards. I get a 4300 Time Spy score with the GTX 1060 and only 3500 with the 480. I swore when I first built the system and benchmarked the 480 with it I got close to 4300. I think something is up.

Hello, when I run 3DMark's Time Spy benchmark with a Ryzen 1600 and a GTX 1060 it reports the boost clock as 3700. When I run the same benchmark with a Radeon 480 it reports the boost clock as 3400. Kind of strange. Any ideas as to why this would be?

They are so damn behind everyone. They just can't get ahead of anyone and just play catch up. If is wasn't for business/enterprise and gaming who would use a Microsoft product anymore? Microsoft is a joke now. For most of their business they just react to the trends now instead of creating them.

After more testing it's definitely the power profiles that causes the slowdowns. I get them with the AMD Ryzen power profile and don't if I switch to High performance on my system. Strange, not sure exactly what is causing it.

Not the best pic, but here is my setup.

I think I got everything running as it should now. Memory is running according to spec now (just 2400). I'm not planning on overclocking. I picked up a led strip at Microcenter today and installed it- pretty darn cool.
