I recently just made a new build, and i bought the Asus R9280X and its not Preforming the way i wanted it too. When i first got the card i could run WoW on Ultra Settings at 70-80 FPS. Now its barely getting 31 FPS on High Settings? Anyone have any Suggestions?

Do you have dust filters on your case intake fans? If not you might take a peek inside your case to see if there is dust build-up on your GPU cooler and also buy some dust filters.

Also, can you check your GPU temperatures during WoW playing to confirm they are actually maxing and being throttled? If they aren't then it is something else, definitely not dust.

running 3 monitors with a 280x is a huge feat. I didn't think the 280x was capable. Are you running all three while gaming? And its been getting warmer since its summer, which means ambient temps rise, which means that since your gpu is temperature targeted, means its hitting the targeted temp quicker than before.

The 280x can support up 2 6 monitors on one card. But i believe i figure what was causing the Frame Rate Drop.
The Blizzard Client. Once i closed this i was getting 99 FPS on Ultra again. Thanks again for everyone input
