hey guys im new to this forum, thanks for looking and helping in advance!
i recently got a new CPU, the AMD FX 8350 replacing my old AMD FX 4130
it was a pain in the ass installing this to my computer because i have a water cooling system and my case isnt that big so it was really hard to take out and put back on. anyways after installing thew new CPU i notice that my fps drops in games from 300-400fps to 50 in CSGO for about 5-10 seconds and then goes back to normal.
at first i thought it was my video card overheating but i borrowed a friend's video card and i still get the fps drop. so now i am wondering if i need a new PSU, or i messed up something while installing the new CPU, or it might be that the heatsink isnt fully attached to the CPU. im really confused frustrated
thanks for looking! need help ASAP
my system specs are:
AMD FX 8350
Cooler Master GX 750w
EVGA 650 Ti Boost 2GB
Corsair Water Cooling Unit (i forgot the name)
