I recently swapped my CPU from a Ryzen 9 7950X3D to a Ryzen 7 9800X3D, and I noticed a drop of about 20 FPS while playing Arc Raiders. My settings are set to cinematic with DLSS on quality (or maybe DLAA, I need to double-check). For anyone else out there running this setup with similar game settings, what kind of FPS are you getting? Also, I'm unsure where to start troubleshooting this issue. Thanks for any help!

When you swap CPUs, it usually resets the BIOS to safe defaults. Make sure to check if XMP/EXPO or DOCP is enabled in your BIOS settings. If that's stable, try enabling Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) but leave it at default for now. Just keep an eye on your FPS after each change; it should help you out!
Alright, I checked, and XMP is on. I just played a round with a mix of cinematic and epic settings, and my FPS is bouncing between 80-100, which is about the same as when I had the 7950X3D. I feel like it should be better, though.
