is vsync on?
are you limiting your fps in any other way?
is your GPU maxed out or not?

if no to all of these then you are CPU limited and whatever FPS you are getting is all you can get because the cpu is the bottleneck

if all forms of vsync are off, then its the cpu or something other than the gpu limiting it

is the fps stuck at a specific rate?

i have tried in almost every game, but it doesnt increase my fps, does anyone know how to fix this?.

If there is no fps cap of any type and no v-sync, then it’s likely a CPU bottleneck.

Of that’s the case then upgrading the cpu or overclocking it is the only solution.

As others have said, if you don't have a performance limit in place (such as v-sync while already reaching your refresh rate), then this almost means the limitation is elsewhere in the system, namely platform-side (read as, the CPU). Given what CPU it is, I'm inclined to find this likely. Lowering the resolution merely lowers the workload on the GPU. Therefore, if lowering the workload on the GPU doesn't increase performance, then it indicates that the GPU wasn't the only limiting factor to begin with.

The 3200G actually uses the first generation Zen(+) architecture despite the 3000 name (which is usually Zen 2), so it's more of a Ryzen 2000 series part, which itself wasn't a ton better than the first generation. Those were generations with performance similar to Intel's 6th or 7th generation parts, which are slow now.

It's also an APU which severely, and I can't stress this part enough, severely lacks cache even compared to other APUs. It only has 4 MB L3 (for reference, later generations have 32 MB per CCD by default and 16 MB is considered the "lacking" amount for CPUs). While this is shared across 4 cores instead of 6 or 8 like later CPUs, it's still a severe deficiency. A lack of cache disproportionately hurts performance in gaming (and less so in general applications, but at that low of an amount, it might might even hurt a bit in some general stuff). The severe lack of cache on this CPU in particular is probably the biggest reason for poor gaming performance.

The 12 GB RAM configuration probably only has partial dual channel benefits (probably for 8 GB worth), and at who-know-what-speed/timings when combined, it's likely making the whole thing even slower. This is because lower cache CPUs rely on RAM being faster even more than performant CPUs do (because a lack of cache means they are fetching to RAM so much more).

post a cpuz validation link

cpuz -> validate button -> submit button
it will open a browser, copy the url (address) and paste it here

Sounds like you are cpu limited, given the slow cpu and what I would guess, is equally slow memory, without any more relevant details of hardware or the games and fps you are getting, nothing more can be said really.

As other have noted. CPU limited. Good news is on that socket the 3200g is about bottom of the barrel so there is allot of upwards upgrade room for you without a full system swap.

depending on the boards limitations he could put in a 5700x3d

12g of ram would be either hybrid or flex modes
some in single and dual channel modes

a 2x8g or 2x16g kit would be faster since it would run in dual ch mode

yeh, a jump to 2*16GB + 5700x 3D would be a night and day difference. At that point OP, your 1060 6gb would be the lowest performing part in the rig and would allow for an easy upgrade path eventually to a nice mid tier modern card without the card being held back.

if the board is not limiting it
amd rates it at 105w, but it can draw much more
if the board is not atleast 6+ vrm phases to cpu cores with cooling, it would throttle it at load

Simple,
Go to desktop resolution reduce for time being of lowered game.
1024x720 At this point changes to settings for other screens that appear might need to be adjusted and requested per the game to gain that information.
If care for another resolution
1366x768
when attempting above this degrades, a 20fps at the resolution of 1024x720 for huge particulatization will still be smooth since textures render with less shapes. should see a 50fps increase minimum for most games.

As others have already pointed out, all you can do is upgrade. The games after 2023 have required stronger and stronger hardware even if they've barely advanced visually (or even regressed).

It's a sad reality that gaming is going backwards and it's dying. Of course people that like to open their wallet at every turn and use PC gaming as an outlet to pretend they are better than others wouldn't believe it, but the reality is that game developers don't care about optimisation and they aren't even truthful in PC requirements in the slightest.

Game says 16GB recommended? Expect 32GB.

Game says a 1060? Expect a 3060.

Game says a quad core? Expect that to mean a quad core, 8 threads or hexacore (6 core)+.

Game says 110 GB? Expect 220GB from a pathetic patching script that needs to waste space to function.

Etc.

Some games even require an SSD and don't say so in their specs We can go on for infinity. But this is where PC gaming is in 2025, and it's not getting better in 2026.

It's up to you if you play that game or just find others to enjoy going forward.

Also be sure to thank Steam for changing the default review system when no one asked them to. They have to make sure to push as many sales by blocking criticism.

By all given evidence the OP seems to be cpu limited so this will have zero impact, just look much worse lol

nICE so has to write his own container program and have it run in cmd prompt during windows recovery environment.

ahhh well 36 years more until doctorate of such a freely given course.


if really wanna believe is cpu bound then guess stuck with everything before 2016 which is weird since it is read released in 2019 did that number just flip it's like 8 was ate and now a 3...

quad core....is a quad core....yeah errr be fun to model around with. Trying changing Hz and searching for a 6 bit color gamut solution and so forth would be a neat trick for the time being at least. GO 40 30 hz and so forth and find that special moment for a while it can handle.
