I have a msi r9 280x and a amd 8350 and play at 1080p . The problem is my performance. When I start to play bf4 maxed out I get around 50-60 FPS. After 30 minutes it goes down to a solid 45. I want to know how I could fix this and what's happening

Thanks

Most stock coolers are the worst thing to keep, unless you are going the use the stock cooler for a internet build, but for gaming, I would recommend using the stock cooler until you can buy a aftermarket one, sell it, or just put it aside and install a new cooler! But the fact that your gpu is running hot is a problem but it can be solved by adding some more fans...

Maybe you're case had bad airflow. If your case has room for extra fans, buy them for more fresh air circulating around the case too cool the gpu. This is why i don't like amd, their crap always overheats and messes up

Forgive me for saying this but I use the stock cooler and the case has one front fan and back fan . I plan on getting a hyper 212 evo and more fans very soon

The 212 Evo is an excellent choice! It's kind of big tho so make sure you have the case clearance. btw i'm using the 212 evo and only 2 fans and it's like winter inside my computer case :p
