Hi guys so this is kinda of a weird question but here it goes: So i bought a r9 270 gigabyte 2gb of craigslist used for maybe 4 months as the seller listed. I came back home checked out the card and it looked fine. I dissembled the card cleaned it (dusting and adding some Arctic Cooling Mx-4) then re assembled the card. After that i re-installed windows ( just to start fresh cause it was slowing down) and downloaded league of legends. So when i went in game i noticed my fps in game is about 90fps I know league is not a intensive game and that a 1280x1024 monitor should be a joke for the r9 270 to run but somehow i was getting 90fps maxing everything out. I do run this on an AMD A-10 5800k (an Apu) but the igpu is disabled im pretty sure. The card is overclocked to 1050mhz ( instead of its 975 oc clock) and the memory is oc'd also to 6000mhz (instead of the default 5600mhz clock). I have no idea whats wrong here.

The on-die GPU of your A10-5800K is never disabled. It is just at idle when not in use. That's not your issue. I just thought I'd mention it.
So just to clarify, you say you are getting the exact same fps in LoL with the monitor plugged into the gfx card video ports as you were when it was plugged into the MB's on-board video ports?
