Hi all,
I recently purchased a PC and am wondering if the issues I am having is normal. I have played League of Legends, Thief, and Elder Scrolls Online on it. While playing I will randomly have a dramatic FPS drop. I have been playing with all graphic settings maxed out, and have tried with/without vertical sync.
The FPS is as follows for the games:
LoL - 100+ FPS, drops to 20 randomly (especially team fights)
Thief - built in benchmark tool had low of 12, average of 35, high of 60
ESO - runs at 60 (once PvP begins it will drop dramatically until I can't tell what is happening, but I can't give the exact FPS).
I would also add that I have dropped the settings for LoL and ESO to medium/low and still receive the insane fps drop.
Here are my system specs:
CPU: AMD FX-9370 4.40 GHz (4.7 GHz Turbo) Eight-Core AM3+ CPU 8MB L2 Cache & Turbo Core Technology
HDD: 2TB (2TBx1) SATA-III 6.0Gb/s 64MB Cache 7200RPM HDD (Single Drive)
MEMORY: 8GB (4GBx2) DDR3/1866MHz Dual Channel Memory (ADATA XPG V2)
MOTHERBOARD: * GIGABYTE 990FXA-UD3 AMD 990 ATX
POWERSUPPLY: 800 Watts - Standard 80 Plus Certified Power Supply - SLI/CrossFireX Ready
VIDEO: MSI R9 280X 3GB
-Also, GPU has most current driver installed, I'm running Windows 7.
I have had Afterburner open to monitor how the games run, highest temperature it has hit is 70C.
Is this normal? Am I expecting to much? I honestly don't know but I feel that for what I purchased I should have everything running perfectly.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, also, the sooner the better (have to get it back quickly if this isn't normal).
Thanks in advance for any help!
