FX-8350 and a GTX 770 underperforming?

Winniedapoonbear · Apr 29, 2014

Computer specs are

CPU: fx 8350
GPU- 770
Mobo: Asrock 990fx extreme 3

I have problems with League of Legends some how with this build, it is super frusterating.. if the CPU bottlenecking? Both gpu and cpu are at stock speeds. I'm being told my Mobo sucks for over clocking this processor little did I know when I purchased it. I also have a 550W Gold rated PSU, should I oc? and if so any good guides on Oc'ing with this mobo?

Can you give us a full rundown? Resolution? Average FPS? RAM? Does this affect other games?

Winniedapoonbear · Apr 29, 2014

I have dual monitors both 1080P FPS goes anywhere from 172 down to 48. Ram is DDR3 1600 2X4 and I haven't noticed it as bad but I believe it does affect other games.

1. What are the other components in the system? SSD? HDD? DVDRW? Bluray? Sound card etc
2. Any components overclocked?

Winniedapoonbear · Apr 29, 2014

Nothing is over clocked... the hard drive is an SSD 240 Gig, DVD drive, no sound card

Hmm,

And you installed a fresh copy of Windows after the upgrade?

Pretty sure u dont need to overclock to get smooth gameplay for LoL, could be server lag, storage problem, is there a hdd and a ssd? or just the ssd? That cpu and gpu setup shouldnt dip that low, im running a 4ghz 8320 and a 7970 in xfire and before xfire i had no issues in any game, i dont play LoL but being the 770 is similar and slightly faster u should have no problem with no games. Could be a driver problem, i know faulty ram can cause quite a few random problems, it surely shouldnt be your cpu/gpu setup.

I did a fresh copy of windows when I built the computer 2 months ago... Only SSD right now..

lazyboy947 :

The question on overclocking is because his system is taking 460W, as is, to run. So if you overclock that FX 8350 you easily get close or over that 550W power supply. That's why I asked.

I see.. well any ideas

LoL is like entirely CPU dependant. I'd be surprised if your using even 10% of the GFX card. Try an OC and see what happens if anhything that would isolate and eliminate the possibility of the CPU being the bottleneck.
