I have been stuck with this issue for a very long time and I am so sick of it.
I am pretty sure I have an unstable overclock but I can't get rid of it.
My Specs
- FX-8350
- Corsair H80i water cooler
- R9 270X Sapphire Toxic 2gb OC
- Hyper beast ram (2x4gb)

I used to have a FX-4300 which I couldn't play any games without restaring my computer after just starting it and putting on very low settings. Then I got sick of having to do that so I got a new CPU and the problems went away. Sooner or later I overclocked my CPU with stock cooler on to 4.1 GHz got to 70 degrees Celsius so i dropped it after a bit. (Overclocked with AMD Overdrive)

Ever since then I have been experiencing very annoying glitching as I turn in a game. (Usually fast turning) which you can't help in FPS games.

I have gone into BIOS/ UEFI and put the settings back to default. I have put amd overdrive down to like 3.7 GHz and everything. I am very annoyed and I don't want to have to bring my computer to IT guy just so he can look at it and make me pay for him to keep it in his office for a few days.

It took me a while to realize it was my CPU that was causing the problems but now I can't fix it. After I replaced my CPU It was perfect for a bit. I have also updated all my drivers for everything. With a few programs and a few files for AMD itself.

I also thought my computer was lagging in game because the settings were too high but ever if i drop the quality to the lowest it can go (to the point you can almost count the pixels) it still lags when I turn fast. (sometimes it happens on YouTube.)

It is not internet problems cause I have played campaign and all these other games.

I am not joking about giving the person the $5 if they find the problem. Thanks.

hmm, maybe it is therminal throttling, or how you call that, you should never overclock with a stock cooler, i got the 8320 and a 270 and oc't both,(not much though) i do not have any problems. just run some cpu, gpu and ram intensive benchmarks and use hwmonitor and cpu-z to check temps and clock speeds, you could also try to underclock your cpu to like 3 to 3.5 GHz and try battlefield again. i would do the benchmarks, and check the temps and clock speed constant when you are testing your cpu.

amd just released some fresh drivers for the gpu.. install those... DO NOT use amd overdrive...switch that software off.. its a freaking disgrace.. only use bios for overclocking..

check your temps while gaming.. use speedfan app , it can check multiple device temps at once.. after 15mins of gaming check your cpu and gpu temps and report back

Yeah I have installed the latest drivers yesterday from the official website AMD and got there program to auto detect missing drivers.
In battlefield 4 (where I experience the lag mostly) I have noticed over the period of a few days my CPU is been stable rising heat level. It used to run at 60 degrees Celsius but lately it has been staying at 65. I searched everywhere to make sure that can't wreak my CPU and if it gets any hotter than that I am going to stop playing it.

Just in case since my friend said I don't have the latest driver since that's why you lag, can you post on this the web page the drivers

GPU- R9 270X sapphire toxic 2gb OC
CPU- AMD FX-8350

Also, might help you figure this out, I can't see the temps for my GPU? Like on any program. AMD overdrive doesn't show it and gpu temp just shows 45.0C and never changes so I think that's wrong and also the only way I know is that on my GPU I have LED's which shows the temp of it. 80% of the time it runs on 2 leds. which is idle 3 is gaming hard and 4 is extreme.

I have put the settings on AMD overdrive to normal as they were but I want to keep since that shows me the temps.
Don't know if you are doing this for the $5 but I have just transferring the money to my Paypal now.

you dont need overdrive for temps, use speedfan instead.. you can check multiple device simultaneously at once.. it is very accurate... play a game for 20 mins and report temps

ps: i dont want your money, i do this for helping others :)

Annoying this is I have put on 3.5 GHz very slow and played. I also put the graphics to extremely low which you couldn't tell if there was a person right in front of you and it still lagged incredibly.

I searched if anyone had the same problem and I got told that if I lower settings and there isn't much of a frame rate boost it was my cpu bottle necking my computer and this cpu is less than a month old and is really good compared to my old FX-4300

I don't know if you will get this again guys but, I bought my self a H80i Corsair water cooler and special thermal paste and my CPU isle at 23 degrees and 45 max during full load.

The FPS still change so much! Running in BF4 at 120 frames and half a second later its at 25 then back up non-stop crazy changes and then a brief freeze which sucks during flight and 1 on 1 combat making games unplayable.

Also, Assassins creed unity is making me freeze a lot more than in bf4. Could the problem be my motherboard or GPU or power supply. I am replacing all of them since I am sick of this annoying problem.
Is it worth that or have you heard of this problem before.

hmm for bf4 i have no idea, maybe a setting in your bios, for ac unity, that game is so poorly optimized, that you cant even run it properly with a i7 and a 980.
