FPS drops on everything

KLToasty · Jul 15, 2015

Just got a r9 390. I upgraded from a GTX 770 because I thought It was giving me the stutter due to the lack of vram. I completely uninstalled all drivers, installed the graphics card, and installed the most updated drivers. THE STUTTER IS STILL THERE!!! I have replaced the PSU, Motherboard, GPU and still the stutter is there. Help me!!!! I am about ready to give up on PC gaming. I have spent well over $2000 on this rig and trying to sort out its issues but I cant even play GTA V on high settings without being around 30-40 fps. Even Batman Arkham City runs at like 40-50 fps. I have also tried reinstalling windows multiple times.

Specs

Motherboard- MSI Gaming 970 A3+
CPU- FX 8320 4.0 GHZ
GPU- MSI R9 390 8GB
RAM- Ripjaw 4x2 1866mhz
PSU- XFX Black 750W
HDD- WD blue 7200
Corsair Liquid Cooler

Its most likely to be a faulty hdd if its still doing it coz the 390 will play gta v high at 60fps easy at 1080p, do your games take really long to load? Loading times been getting longer? Does the hdd make any weird noises? Coz if windows or the game cant load properly youll get dodgy frames and bad stutter https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=TETQ_oCJgFI

That is what I suspected too. I did however install Alan Wake on my SSD and was getting under 50fps when looking at an open area such as trees in the distance

Haev you checked temps of cpu and mobo in HWmonitor/afterburner? It could be throttling due to CPU overheating and might be something so simple as reseating the heatsink

What resolution are you playing at?

KLToasty · Jul 15, 2015

Im about to run a 3dmark test for stress. Ill monitor temps and let you know.

Ok good luck

When was the last time you Defragged the hard drive?

KLToasty · Jul 15, 2015

Ok just ran 3dmark. Normal Fire Strike i got a 8220. Cpu Maxed at 62C but hovered around 52C-55C GPU highest was 84C but was around 68C. Usage looked normal. That score on Fire Strike is a little low isn't it? I thought it was supposed to be around 10000. Also I defrag weekly.

What SSD? You did not list an SSD in the top post...

Also, Batman Arkham City was a total pile of ... crap... do not use it to compare anything. Even Titans had trouble getting 60 FPS and Warner Bros finally pulled it off of the shelves, offered refunds, and has promised to fix the problems and release the game for the PC when it is fixed.

Fullmetalalkami · Jul 15, 2015

Temps are normal for 3Dmark.. What resolution are you on? Coz if youre running 1440p those fps are fairly standard

Fullmetalalkami · Jul 15, 2015

Actually theres not massively un-normal for 1080p on some games but the stuttering is odd.

KLToasty · Jul 15, 2015

I'm running at 1080p. I feel as though my new gpu is getting simillar results to my old gtx 770.

Fullmetalalkami · Jul 15, 2015

Its definitely weird, run some benchmarks on heaven and see how it scores coz a 390 is alot better than 770

KLToasty · Jul 16, 2015

I think I figured it out guys. The case that I'm using (NZXT H440) doesn't have very good circulation. I'm switching cases for better air flow.
