Recently I have been struggling playing games with my rig and was unsure why. Kept having huge FPS drops from 50ish to 5 or 10 on any game.
Found a thread that said I should use PerformanceTest. So I did some tests and here were the results. (I am actually shocked.)
Bare in mind my specs:
AMD FX8350 Black Edition 8 Core @4GHz
EVGA NVIDIA GTX 770 2GB
M5A78L-M/USB3
8GB Corsair Vengeance 1600MHz
240GB OCZ Agility III
500GB W/D 7200RPM
XFX PRO 550W
Performance results: (Sorry about screenshots, you need to buy PerformanceTest to export data)

My CPU JUST beats a intel core duo 2... wtf.
GTX 770 is almost being beaten by a 5770?
Any help on why my specs are so heavily under-performing?
My Specs are pretty good. Is it the PSU not giving enough juice or the Mobo being too bad?
Thanks in advance, really appreciate help.

Check your temps, your CPU or GPU is probably overheating.I checked using GPU-Z and SpeedFan and my GPU seems to be at around 60 degrees while idle
Using SpeedFan my CPU was at around 70 degrees idle.. Oops?
Now I really don't even want to boot up a game and test the temperatures haha.

Check your cpu frequencies the 760g motherboards are infamous for throttling the fx 8320s and 8350s due to the poor vrms. Plus that motherboard doesn't seem to have heatsinks on the vrms which will compound the problem.What do you mean by CPU Frequencies? Sorry I thought I was good with computers haha..

70c is way too high. AMD CPU's are about 62c max. The CPU is throttling down to avoid burning up.

Oh right. Well what can I do about it? Replace Mobo like Bignastyid said or replace cpu fan etc?

No, I was asking if you did that, as it is WRONG. You must PROPERLY re-paste the CPU when reinstalling the cooler. Whoa calm down. Just re-applied it now.
Seemed a lot better FPS wise but my CPU is still dropping to 1400MHz. Any help?
Did the temps improve?
Nope. Ordered a H80i. Hopefully that will help

If the temps did not improve with a properly working cooler, you have other problems as adding an h80(bad choice in my opinion) is like putting a band-aid on the wound and not actually fixing anything. Well I am going to use it so then I can determine the problem easier. If it fixes it then great but if it doesn't I know that's not the problem and I can swap out something else.
