Recently I decided to build my first gaming rig. I had a friend who does it for a living help me so i didn't mess up any hardware in the process. My main issue with the computer is its getting low fps when running mmos such as wow, swtor on any setting. Although when i dont use online games such as skyrim, the witcher it runs smoothly on the highest settings.

Hard drive-
Seagate 2TB Desktop SSHD SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache 3.5-Inch Internal Bare Drive
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EIQTKAS?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00
Internet-
hard wired with ethernet( never fails always have a good connection)
OS-
windows 8.1
What I've done thus far
- UPDATED THE DRIVERS
- UPDATED WINDOWS
-INCREASED PERFORMANCE OF WINDOWS FOR GAMING
-OVERCLOCKED GRAPHICS CARD
-MADE SURE GRPAHICS CARD WAS WORKING PROPERLY WITH MSI AFTERBURNER
-CHECKED CPU WITH INTEL BURN TESTER( WORKS GREAT)
so my question is there anything else i can do to make my performance better because im still only getting about 20-30 fps and the latency is a steady 30-40ms. On another note my internet when you first bring it up takes about 10 seconds to load. I was under the impression that it would be faster than that.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
