Got 3 monitors now my gpu peforms below the 1 percentile
Specs:
Rx 580
ryzen 3 2200g
16 gb ram

So, after I got a third monitor every game i play is super laggy like when I played minecraft Java edition, I had 200 fps drop and can barely play 60 fps on a game like Brawl Halla a 2d game and keep in mind, when I had a dual monitor setup, I never got this amount of lag before.

Any recommendations on what to do? I updated my drivers

Not surprising, because you're having an old mid-range GPU run 3 1080p+ monitors. That's a GPU bottleneck when you're doing things on 3 panels at the same time.

If you're going to run 3 panels, you should be using at least a 1080 Ti or 2070 SUPER to not suffer as much of a hit from having additional displays.

Is there a way to fix this problem? if not, what parts do i need to upgrade to make it not bottleneck

The only ways to fix it are to either upgrade your video card or don't use 3 panels when playing games.

Granted, you're going to get a CPU bottleneck with high frames in most games because you're using a weak APU. Ryzen APUs were not made for high performance gaming, they were made to be used with the on-chip graphics. The kind of setup you seem to want doesn't match the hardware you're using.

What parts should i upgrade? and can you recommend me any gpu/cpu i should get?

Ryzen 5 3600 would be a good CPU choice, any get the best GPU you can afford, whether that be a 3060 Ti, 3070, 2060, whatever. You'll need all the power you can when it comes to running 3 screens.

I have a 3900X and 2080 Ti and even I can lose easily 20 frames in some games by having a browser playing a video on my second panel.

Ok, so the gpu is pretty pricey, is there anywhere in the $400-$500 for a gpu that would fit well with the ryzen 5 3600?

A 3060 ti is $400 msrp and a 3070 is $500 msrp.

It will vary on what version you get and where you live however so when in doubt check sites like:

https://pcpartpicker.com/

Granted both are in high demand and low stock so avoid reseller sites and you may have to get in a waiting list for either.

what does msrp mean? also if i get the 3060 ti everything should work out fine right?

Also does a nvidia graphics card work properly with a b450 tomahawk motherboard? (the 3060 ti graphics card to be more exact with an ryzen 5 3600)

Why a 3 monitor setup will reduce userbechmark results this bad ? Makes no sense because this bench does not test on higher resoltutions. 39% looks very low compare to last benched 580`s 58-63%.

It'll work fine.

Literally anything can change the result for userbenchmark. Their "test" is pretty much garbage and they intentionally downplay AMD hardware because the site owners are Intel and NVIDIA fanboys.

Downplay amd? Do you read other 580's benched at lot higher then his 580. This has nothing to do with intel/nvidia fanboys. I have 3 monitors aswell and it doesnt affect this bench at all.. maybe because i have intel/nvida and it affects only amd and multi monitor setup :(

His Gpu is about 40% slower then other 580 results

Did I say it was BECAUSE of it? No. My point was, their benchmark is bogus and sensitive to even the smallest things. More than a few percent of CPU or GPU usage will ruin the result.

Look at product descriptions on the site, they almost always recommend Intel/NVIDIA hardware when they can get away with it, and the site owners and those close to them have been known to attack people who call them out. The point was that UBM is a bad reference in any capacity because the benchmark only matters to UBM and they make up a lot of ♥♥♥♥ like the "Effective speed" result.

If you're using 1920x1080 displays, the resolution of a triple monitor setup will be 5760x1080.

That's less than 4k, but closer to 4k than 1440p.

3070 and up is what I would look at for a triple monitor setup.

2 accessory displays (on the dedicated gpu) should not hurt its performance

but if using eyefinity it will be under 1/3 the fps of a single display

you could use the igpu of the 2200g for accessory, but if you drag anything demanding to it it will decimate performance
