Please forgive me for noobness on the forum. I'll try to give as much detailed information as I can.
ASRock 990FX Extreme3 AM3+ AMD
AMD FX8350 @ 4.0GHZ, 8 core, aftermarket cooler
XFX Radeon R9 390 8gb 512-bit
Crucial Ballistix Tactical 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900)
Thermaltake TR2 RX 750W PSU
1TB Western Digital HD
Windows 7 professional 64 bit
Avast Internet Security
The OS install on the HD is relatively fresh. Within a couple months. All drivers are up to date using Slimdrivers.
I just bought the R9 yesterday to replace my previous GPU setup which was 2x XFX Radeon 7850 2GB 256-bit in crossfire that I had recently dropped to a single 7850 to try to standardize my gaming
I am benchmarking using 3Dmark, on the fire strike test. On the graphics test I am getting around 40-60 FPS using default settings at 1080p with a score of ~11500.
However my physics test is averaging 10fps with a score of 3241. Max temps for CPU while benchmarking was 73 degrees C. Max temp for GPU was 71 Degrees C.
I am desperately trying to discover the bottleneck in my system. I feel as though my upgrade from my previous GPU set up was unnecessary as I'm seeing the same results as before. I have no obvious indicators as to the cause of my issues. Given my system specs I should be able to run any game on the market at 1080p over AT LEAST 40fps. With that said...i have issues with multiple games running below even 30fps. Examples include starcraft 2, GTA V, Far Cry 3.
