While playing BF4 (Battlefield 4) and other high-end games, my CPU is often 80-90%, and BF4 it uses 100% sometimes, and in BF4 I get framerates that are a bit low. In some heavy multiplayer maps I tried medium preset and Ultra preset and I still get around 40 FPS and dips down to 20, and every few seconds it freezes for about half a second and stutters, it's a bit hard to play and frustrating. I checked task manager and resource monitor my CPU is all most at full usage, and all I usually run in the background is non-heavy stuff such as steam, skype, etc. My RAM is fine, never use all 8GB and usually don't get close. I think my CPU is a bottleneck. Some people's PCs with a similar or slightly worse GPU can easily get 80+ FPS on BF4 on High, and 60+ on Ultra.
Here are my specs:
---------
CPU: AMD Phenom 965 BE OC 3.7Ghz Quad Core 6MB Cache
GPU: AMD Sapphire Vapor-X R9 270X 2GB GDDR5 1050Mhz Core 1400Mhz Memory 1280 Processors (New)
Hardrives: 500GB Samsung 7,200 RPM HDD, 1TB Seagate Barracude 7,200 RPM HDD.
RAM: 2x4= 8GB Ripjaw Gaming Series G.Skill RAM at 1333Mhz
Motherboard: Asrock 880G Extreme 3 Am3
PSU: Rosewill Capstone 80+ Gold 750W (New)
Case: Thermaltake Overseer Rx-i Black
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Evo 212+ Hyper
--------
I do have efficient Airflow and exhaust as well. My GPU temp is about 25-30C Idle, and 40C while doing videos and rendering, and 50-65C while gaming, usually doesn't go any higher. and CPU is 32-36C Idle and 40-48C Gaming rarely reaches 50C even under extreme loads including Prime95. I don't think it's a overheating problem. I have a 200mm front intake fan, and a top 200mm exhaust fan, and a back 120mm back exhaust fan. There is no dust either, this is a new case and components have been cleaned from awhile ago.

Thanks for the help!
