Hi everyone, I recently upgraded my motherboard and CPU from an x58 chip/i7 950 to the EVGA FTW Z87/i7 4770k. My performance for games seems to be based on if my PC wants to play them or not. What I mean is, I can go from having 80fps in BF4, restart it and reload B4 to find it only gives me 7fps. BF4

Sorry, somehow hit enter on intial post. BF4 is not the only game to do this. I tried drivers after drivers and background programs being turned off. I've finally just put my Windows 7 disk into the tray and did a re-install. Has anyone came across this issue?

Specs:

i7 4770k, 3.5ghz (CPU cooler on the way for overclocking;) )
EVGA FTW z87
EVGA GTX 780 SC
8 GB's of Corsair Vengeance 1600mhz
Cooler Master HAF 932
850w PSU, Thermaltake
1TB HDD that's fairly new, never had an issue with it.

Temps: 33c idle
Normal operation load: 75c-ish

Thanks!!
