Hi Guys. I'm planning on upgrading my MoBo this month because I really think my causes my computer to lag while I'm in game and I get a huge FPS drop. First off could someone tell my why my MoBo isn't good for my setup? Because currently I can play my games in max settings and run at 60fps, but i'll get a huge lag spike and a lot of people have said my cpu and gpu are fine, including my ram. but they've also said my temps could be a problem but nothing on my board goes over 40. I thought maybe my MoBo doesn't support my cpu well enough seeing as my cpu speeds are never maxed but the cpu is never over 40% usage

MoBo: A960d+
CPU: AMD 8320 8core 3.5ghz
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB
RAM: 8GB

But onto the topic of a new MoBo, would a decent one sort out my ingame lag problems? and what sort of MoBo would I beable to get with a budget of £60-£90 and beable to upgrade my ram and overclock my cpu

I'm experiencing lag on every game I play. It certainly isn't my Internet connection as I'm on 120mbps wired. I can tell the difference between fps drop and lag due to a poor Internet connection.

Another issue I've thought it could be is my hard drive as it is only rated 5.9 on the windows rating feature. But would that cause my game to not load quick enough to drop fps so drastically?
