However, many users with the new AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D and 9950X3D are reporting unexpectedly low frame rates and stuttering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You Are Right - Something's not Right!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have one of these \"beasts\" and your FPS is struggling to stay consistent, you aren't alone. A recent thread on Reddit has highlighted a growing number of complaints where users with high-end setups (including RTX 3080, 4070, 4080, and even the 4090) are seeing performance that doesn't match their hardware's potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>250-400 FPS on average. 1% lows around 150.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These are the results on a processor that should deliver completely different performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The problem is real-Reddit confirms it<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>9800X3D + RTX 3080 - Users are reporting FPS numbers that are far from what they should be<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>9800X3D + RTX 4070\/4080 - 1% lows, stuttering in ranked matches<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>9950X3D + RTX 4090 - even with a flagship GPU, the performance doesn't live up to the hardware's class<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This isn't a problem affecting just one user.

Our optimization covers the entire AMD lineup featuring 3D V-Cache technology: 5800X3D, 7800X3D, 7950X3D, 9800X3D, 9950X3D, and newer models. The optimization principles are similar, but the details vary depending on the generation and motherboard.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<strong>Is optimization safe for my hardware?<\/strong>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes. We don't do aggressive overclocking or anything that could damage the hardware. We operate within the manufacturer's specifications, carefully fine-tuning the BIOS and operating system settings. Every change is reversible.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<strong>Why is there such a big difference in FPS? Isn't this a scam?<\/strong>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The default Windows and BIOS settings are designed for \u201cgeneral use,\u201d not esports gaming. X3D processors feature a unique architecture with 3D V-Cache, which requires precise thread scheduling and power management. Without these, the processor operates at a fraction of its potential in single-threaded games like CS2.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<strong>Will optimization also help in other games (Valorant, Deadlock)?<\/strong>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Will optimization also help with other games (Valorant, Deadlock)? Yes. System optimization affects all esports games. In Valorant and Deadlock, customers report similar improvements-higher average FPS, more stable 1% lows, and lower input lag.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">So what you need?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do you have a 9800X3D\/9950X3D and low FPS in CS2?
