Okay, just got back into playing PC now, and have a bit of an issue with FPS, in most games.
Before i go on, here is my spec :
ASUS GTX660 2gb DDR5 OC
AMD FX4300 3.8GHZ quad core
BioStar A960D+
8GB 1333mhz Ram
500W PSU
1920x1080 AOC 23" LED monitor
Windows 7 HP 64bit
Okay so the issue is, before i got back into games i had a GT220 1GB DDR3 card, and i used to run everything on low, with good FPS in stuff like WoW, and Guild wars, it ran CS:GO on low very well too.
Got a GTX750 1GB DDR5 OC, and ran that for about 2 weeks before i worked out i had a faulty card, returned it and got another one, ran fine for another 2 weeks before i realised it was pretty underpowered. So returned it, and got a GTX660 2GB DDR5.
The card is much better, but as i was experiencing with the 750, i keep getting random framerate drops? as if the card or cpu is just dropping off for about 20 seconds then coming back?
For example in WoW, i can run Ultra settings at 40-50 FPS, but if i turn down the View distance i get more like 100 FPS, apparently view distance requires a more powerful proccessor, is this a reason for the low framerate? as my friend who has an i5, and a 660, runs wow 100 fps on ultra pretty much everywhere!
In other games too it does tend to have FPS drops but not so severe, fortunately, my brother has the same PC, so i tried my 660 and HDD in his PC, but its exactly the same!
Anyone has any ideas please let me know i am totally baffled!
Thanks
