I recently purchased a gigabyte geforce gtx 760 OC with the hope that I will be able to run new FPS games such as battlefield 4 and call of duty ghosts without the frame rate problems I was experiencing with my old graphics card.
I bought a new 600watt corsair PSU to suit, completely removed the old drivers and installed the new drivers appropriately.
I'm currently running an AMD FX4100 quad-core (overclocked by 10%) processor and have 16gb ram. my operating system is installed onto an OCZ vertex SSD but I run my games through steam/origin from my HDD.
I'm considering formatting my drives and performing a clean install of everything on my PC as it's the only thing I can think to do after messing around with all my settings, even setting them onto the lowest (which is really feel I shouldn't have to having bought a decent spec. graphics card)
Nothing seems to sort out this low frame rate problem I'm having, even when just playing a campaign I'm only getting a maxiumum of 50 which will often drop as low as 15 and not improve. It lags that bad online it's absolutely impossible to play! (I have a 50Mbps fibre optic internet connection)
I was wondering if it was because my processor was bottlenecking my new GPU but I surely shouldn't be experiencing a much worse framerate than before? The only other factor I can think of is that I'm currently plugged into a fairly old 40" Sony Bravia HD TV through HDMI. I know that some computer specific monitors dazzle you with all these features they have specifically designed for games but Ive been told that the TV/Monitor you use shouldn't cause the game to stutter or experience such a big shift in framerate. Can anyone help me?
