Yup, that means you're running effectively half of the memory bandwidth your CPU is capable of, which most likely explains your issues. Zen was literally architected around Dual-Channel memory. I'm glad we could narrow it down, however unfortunate the issues may be. Cheers!

It is not my intention to go off topic, however, this is a fundamental misunderstanding of AMD's Zen Architecture from its inception to its current form. Single vs Dual channel memory absolutely still matters due to the Infinity Fabric. All Zen CPUs use CCDs (Core Complex Dies) which talk to the memory controller via the Infinity Fabric, for a lot of complex reasons I won't go into, Single versus Dual-Channel memory really does matter here. Furthermore, while clock speed absolutely matters, it doesn't matter how many clock cycles your CPU can achieve if a large quantity of them are spent doing nothing whilst waiting around for data. You're not entirely wrong though as Zen and Zen+ did tie the Fabric's clock speed 1:1 with memory speed! Again, this is all a gross oversimplification as to not get lost in the weeds here.

Hey p4p0r, here's a different train of thought from the others who have replied - I have a very, very similar system to you with the exception of more RAM and a heftier GPU with seemingly no issues. Given that you have the Adrenaline overlay up-and-running, I'm going to conclude that your GPU drivers are up-to-date! Here's the thing, Ryzen is fickle when it comes to RAM, so my question is this - Are you running single or dual channel memory? More specifically, how many DIMMs (sticks) are installed in your system? If you have a singular DIMM (one stick), the bad news is that Ryzen really hates single-channel memory. Provided you have multiple DIMMs (two sticks, or very unlikely four) check that your "XMP" or "DOCP" profile in BIOS is actually set to 3200MHz! If all else fails, I have personally seen some wilder stuff on AM4 (CPU Platform) be resolved by updating the BIOS, so I'd give that a whirl after checking the aforementioned things out! P.S. Just run the game on high settings instead of the literal maximum, your RX7600 *will* prefer it that way. Good luck!
