I have spent the past week building my new computer it was my first build, but when I started playing games I can barely break the 40fps mark, here is a link to my build on pcpartpicker.com http://pcpartpicker.com/p/Q6HQf7

first thing you want to do is not use the computer until you fix the heat sink problem. this could be the very cause.

best way with the crappy Intel mechanism is to install it with the motherboard outside the case so you can see what is happening. pins have to snap/lock in correctly. install in crisscross pattern.

if all drivers are up to date ( and the necessary drivers off the disc that came with the motherboard are installed ) and you went to windows updates again and again and again.........then you did a defrag and disc clean up and cleared all the cookies and malware........ before you loaded games to play............

first thing I would do is reset cmos to clear anything abnormal up.

what resolution/what games??

What if its not in a crisscross pattern becaue I already fixed it just without criss cross, should I be worried and I did it in case and in case I broke the cooler what would be a good aftermarket one I also heard some concerning cracking noies while installing it again
