🖥️ BACKGROUND SOFTWARE RUNNING

MSI Afterburner

Other background software (~1GB RAM usage)

🎥 While recording and monitoring, FPS is slightly lower.

🚀 If you disable recording, MSI Afterburner, and background apps, you can get much higher and more stable FPS, especially on Low settings.

🧠 PERSONAL OPINION – IS RYZEN 3 2200G WORTH IT IN 2026?

In my honest opinion, the Ryzen 3 2200G can still be used in 2026, but only for tight budgets.

Modern games are heavier and frequently updated, which makes this APU struggle with new AAA titles. However, for esports and lighter games, it still delivers a decent experience.

🎯 Games You Can Still Play:

Valorant

Counter-Strike 2

Minecraft

Esports titles

Older & story-mode games

👉 Budget gaming: YES
👉 Modern AAA gaming: NO

Recommendation:
If possible, upgrading to a newer APU or adding a dedicated GPU is a much better long-term solution.
