I'm sceptical on my new 8350/290 Tri-X's performance in games, and would love to know if this is average or not
CPU is 4.0ghz, handled default by Bios, with a little turbo boost. Never exceeds 51C
GPU is stock OC'd to 1000/1300, never drops its core clock under max load, and never goes above 73C
GPU Driver 14.2 beta clean installed. CPU chipset up to date.
Yes, these are average FPS's, I have a VERY variable FPS, and I think its my 8350 dipping down or even bottlenecking. I have few games with constant FPS. They don't dip to the lower average THAT often, but to the point that it is bothering my gameplay.
Unigine Valley: 53fps avg
Battlefield 4 1st mission: DX11 50-90fps Mantle: 65-95fps
Battlefield 4 MP: Ultra preset DX11: 40-85fps Mantle: 60-110fps
Borderlands 2 : Max settings, low physx 53-90fps
Crysis 2: Ultra settings 70-100fps in low action, to 39-60fps in high action
CS:GO (yes I know): Max Settings 8xmsaa 160-250fps full MP match
Dead Island 1: max settings 160-230fps
Far Cry 2: Max settings 70-110fps, with dips to 50's
Far Cry 3: Ultra 4xmsaa 45-63fps
Hitman Absolution: Benchmark: 48fps Gameplay: Ultra 8xMSAA 49-75fps
Metro 2033: Max Settings low physx 65-90fps average
Metro Last Light: Very High settings, 2x Supersampling, 49-66fps
Sleeping dogs: Extreme preset 48-52fps avg
Of course these are demanding games, but I built this rig for demanding games... If anyone else out there has a similar 8-core + High end AMD GPU rig, please give me your input. I am a little underwhelmed in some of these games, especially BF4 which I built the rig for. If I can't run Crysis 2, how could I run Crysis 3, you know? and even Far Cry 2 didn't run well.
Is it my CPU not running games well or?
my full Rig's specs are in my signature. Thank you!
