Hello pls help! I want to set up 6 LD android emulators at once and run them at almost perfect efficiency (no hiccups, no lag, etc)
A guy I know says his i7 laptop runs 5 no problem. I was told by a software developer that an i7 8700 and GTX 1070 should do the job.
Today I dropped $500 and upgraded my pc to the following
ryzen 5 3,500 (benchmark shows 12,500 and also seems to only be 10% lower number than a lot of i7's)
geforce 1650 SUPER (benchmark shows 10,000, 3,000 points below the recommended GTX 1070)
16gb ram
Asus B450M-A
All 4 of the above are brand new out of the box
but I seem to still have problems even just running 4. I get 4 up and running and it says my cpu is using maybe 25% and gpu is 25% but there is still a lot of lag. I start to do something on one emulator and the cpu might spike to 75%.
The developer said these emulators are way more gpu intensive than cpu intensive but the gpu never goes above 40% while all the lag spikes cause cpu to go above 70%
Then when everything still seems to be working fine, all 4 emulators just freeze up.
I'm a complete newb at all this but it "feels" like my upgrades should be able to run 4 with no problem.
I did follow some random articles online about how to help in making windows/pc run more efficiently etc
I mean I really have no idea what's going on. I would assume if cpu spikes to 80%+ then lag starts to happen but even when my cpu/gpu monitor software says they're both at like 25% with 4 emu's running side by side there is still lag and freezes.
Do I mess with the recommended cores and ram allocation options in LD player settings? ryzen 5 says it is 6 core but the LD player option is set for 4 cores and it's recommended.
is a fresh install of windows 10 on the table?
is ryzen 5 and 1650 SUPER just potato build for what I'm trying to do? lol - I even set the max fps in ld player to 20 fps which is fine for the apps Im trying to multi
I also get an error saying my gpu driver might cause "splashing" w/e that is every time I open up the emulators
these problems still happen even when I shut down chrome/skype/spotify, anything else I don't absolutely need
I should probably add that when all 4 froze and crashed, the desktop windows manager was spiking at 100% gpu
when I batch opened all 4 with 5 sec intervals cpu spiked to 60% and gpu only went to max 5%
