I am currently running:
* Gigabyte Ultra Durable B75M-D3H motherboard (LGA 1155) supporting PCI Express Gen 3
* Intel Core i7
* 16 GB RAM
*Radeon HD 7950 GPU with 3GB GDDR 5
* 1 monitor - Samsung
I recently installed the Radeon HD 7950 graphics card into the PCI-E 3.0 x16 slot to replace a GTX 650 graphics card that I thought was the cause of low frame rates (avg of 40 fps) while gaming. I installed the new graphics card along with the new drivers.
With the installation of the Radeon HD 7950 I expected my frame rates to increase dramatically, but they didn't. Now I am averaging about 50 fps. In Minecraft I run about 60 fps, in Tomb Raider and COD I run 40 fps.
I have set the monitor at the highest resolution. I have checked the video settings in the games. The low frame rate occurs whether I am gaming online or offline.
Any ideas why my frame rates would remain so low?
