As the title of the tread says, I get very noticeable framerate drops whenever I am in a very stressful enviornment during my games. The main games I play are WoW and League of Legends. If I am running a 5-man or doing arena, bg's in wow my fps is fine (60+). I could probably even turn my settings on ultra and hardly notice a fps drop. When there is not a whole lot of stress my graphics seem to be just fine, but when I do a 25 man raid or sit in a major city there is a huge drop in my fps (about 19-25). The same goes for League of Legends when I am farming a lane, fps is stable, teamfights breakout, very choppy. I am trying to determine what is bottlenecking my pc. I'm not an expert on pc hardware by any means so any advice would be amazing. I'm not overclocking anything at all, but am willing to do so. What should I replace? or should i just build a new pc?
