At 1080p (Full HD), the AMD Ryzen 3 3200G will hold back the AMD RX 6600 by roughly 9-13% depending on the game - CPU-heavy titles will feel it most. The processor cannot feed frames to the GPU fast enough, so you may see lower-than-expected frame rates. Upgrading to a faster CPU would unlock the full potential of your AMD RX 6600.
