Low fps with msi rx470

[♥♥♥♥ this game]

AMD said that rx470 can run most games at 60fps and on high settings. But my 470 cant run AC origins smoothly even on the lowest settings. Can someone tell me how to fix this please.
My PC:
Amd rx470 4gb
i5 4460 quad core 4gb
ram 16gb

What do you expect from such weak graphics and quadcore CPU without HT?

[Snow]

Because it's not a graphics card's problem in the first place. Most of the graphics settings only affect GPU workload, while you're clearly CPU bottlenecked here. Yours was mid-range 6 years ago, it's not meant to run modern open world games anyhow.

Ya You're short on cores .

@OP: what is your GPU load in game?

[FeilDOW]

The 4460 should be able to push the 470 with no issue in AC:O but don't expect a consistent 60fps.

Sure it can push the Rx 470 fine but ac origins likes cpu cores/threads.

You're right, but thus isn't hard CPU bottleneck - both OP's graphics and CPU are too weak to sustain 60 FPS in this game.

Op was complaining about stutter, bottlenecking doesn't make stuttering.

Imho op is short on cores.

Uh ac is probably the most unoptimized game on the planet. Don't expect good performance in that game.

First, don't believe anything a chip-maker tells you.
Second, the RX 470 is at the bottom end of mid-tier cards. (I have almost the exact same setup as you - an MSI Armor RX 470 4GB + Core i5 4590 + 16GB ram.) 60fps @1080p is possible in a lot of games - I'd even say most. But no one saying "it'll run most games @60fps High Settings" is telling you when those games are from. You won't get a steady 60fps @1080p High in "most" games that launched in the past two or three years. Turning some settings down should smooth things out a bit, but I doubt you'll get a completely smooth framerate without also reducing resolution.

Actually, bottlenecking leads exactly to stutters, be it CPU, GPU, RAM or VRAM.

Probably good idea to look if you can get used i7-4770 or 4790 cheap from somewhere.

Funny I have an FX8350 that the elitists ♥♥♥♥ all over but it runs nice and smooth 1080p even though the cpu bottleneck varies I've seen GTX1070 as low as %63 in FC5 but smooth.

Mmmmm like them cores ^, feed me, LOL.

I don't expect for 60 fps but it's weird that i run Odyssey smoothly at around 40 fps. But when i return to Origins the game lag alot, even on low setting

I'm not surprised you've chosen the test that doesn't show frame time, as microstutters are hard to see on video.

This is anything but smooth. But I guess some players are less perceptible to microstutters and input delay than other ones, so might be not that noticeable for you.
