So i have a problem with low fps in games like assassin's creed black flag and metro last night.
i run the games on low settings with 1920x1080 screen resolution, and i only get about 15-20 fps which is really low. i think these games should run on at least high settings with about 60 fps am i right?

pc components:
msi 7790 1gb oc
amd fx 8350
8gb ram

i didn't have this problem until i installed windows 8.1 on my pc.
anyone?

Hi! :D

First of all, after you installling Windows 8 it will cost a lot more of performance then before, I guess, and that GPU (MSI 7790 1GB OC) can't follow the rest of your PC, you got a very good CPU, so I would recommend you a upgrade. If I was you, I would buy a GTX 760, high end GPU and cheap card at the moment.

If you can't afford a new GPU, try to update every single driver on your PC (there is softwares to do so) or go for a old OS like Windows 7 Pro.
