Hey,
So I want to sell my custom built pc that I built about several months back since I think that is my only option unfortunately at this point: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/qZjygs
Also, I would much rather sell just my mobo and cpu rather than my whole pc since I have some decent parts if I go intel mobo + cpu.
Basically, the reason I'm selling it is because it can't run any games, and even on medium-high settings I get fps drops to the 30's 40's.
I think it is because of the bad cpu and people suggest I overclock but I also heard that my motherboard is bad for overclocking so I would have to get a new one as well as an aftermarket cooler. If I do that, I would rather get an intel mobo and intel cpu since intel is way better than amd cpu's based on my experiences and also the overclock may net me a few fps more depending on the game rather than the drastic improvements I will get from intel. For example, people who have claimed to to switch from amd cpu to intel report almost double the amount of fps and barely any drops. I'm disappointed it can't run any games without fps drops, even on medium-high settings, thanks to the crap cpu's that amd make, I wish I would have gone intel first. Technically, I don't think my pc is considered a gaming pc anymore, I mean, what kind of gaming pc gets massive fps drops on almost every game even on medium-high settings?
AMD cpu's are basically a joke in my mind and people should stop recommending them for gaming. At first when I played games like TERA, Planetside 2, etc. I accepted that I couldn't max them with stable fps and even lived with the drops because I thought they were not optimized for multiple cores and preferred intel's single core performance. However, when I actually tried some games optimized for AMD, such as bf3/bf4, there are still fps drops with this cpu and in intel cpu's there aren't nearly as many, even though those games support multiple cores. Intel cpu's wipe the floor with amd cpu's, heck even an i3 outperforms my fx 6300.
Nothing is also technically wrong with my pc, I ran benchmarks, temps, etc. everything is fine, even outperformed some people with same setup as me. I just accepted that amd based builds are full of crap, at least mine is.
I'm so disappointed that I spent my money on this load of crap, I feel scammed, AMD is like a trap for unsuspecting people I swear. I even pointed out that I WILL NOT be overclocking and mainly using this pc for mmo's and people still recommended me this cpu saying it will max mmo's fine, and like I said, now I know that even an i3 would be better.
The thoughts that I should have gone with intel are also making me depressed to tell you the truth. I think about it everywhere I go, no matter what I do, where I go, and keep reminding myself that I got a terrible deal and why for the life of me did not go with intel, it's really disappointing. All I wanted to do was play some mmo's with a stable, smooth framerate.
I want to apologize for the numerous amount of threads on this topic, I just feel I needed to get it off my chest somehow.
Thanks to the people that also helped me and gave me tips on my threads. I guess my only option now is to try and sell it and would like some tips as to where to go.
For reference, here are some videos of what I am talking about:

http://tinypic.com/player.php?v=2mgt5ax&s=8#.U-cKePldXGO (Defiance)
It's basically like this in every game I've tried (TERA, Firefall, Diablo 3, Bf3, Bf4, Planetside 2, Defiance) besides old games like league of legends, but come on, even my laptop can run that lol.
