Good evening, here's a quick question:
I have owned my R9 290 windoforce for quite a while now with a xfx pro series 850w PSU and i gotta say that it's a beast in many games like Starcraft II, Battlefield 4, Crysis 3.
However... In Saints row 4 and 3, my fps is just plain awful. I simply can't max out at 1080p. My avarage fps was around 45fps when walking on foot, it increases sometimes when i start jumping around.
Other games that i have low fps in: Starcraft broodwar, i think v-sync is causing the game to lock at 15 fps or something. In minecraft my avarage fps went from around 500 to 70-140.
Otherwise this GPU is a beast and my PSU is not bottlenecking, any advice here?
Specs:
FX-8350 5Ghz
GA-990FXA-UD3
R9 290 WINDFORCE @ 1125/1250.
Corsair vengeance 8gb 1600 9-9-9-24
2TB HDD
XFX Pro Series 850w 80+ bronze
Drivers: AMD catalyst 13.12 (I uninstalled the NVIDIA drivers completely before doing anything else)
Temperatures are not a problem either.
