Did you reinstall windows? If not, do it.

Check temperature with coretemp

Bios of motherboard up to date?

Drivers from AMD up to date?

Ajay09347274590 · Oct 9, 2015

In old specs i used windows 8 X64

now i reinstalled windows 10 X64

temperatures are like
normal CPU=15c-18c
on load CPU=45c-60c

normal GPU= 70c
on load GPU= 100c

drivers of all are up to date like motherboard, Gpu, Bios.

what else might be the problem..... is it SMPS that is making this inconvenience?

awaiting for answer.

Run 3dmark (firestrike) basic edition (free)
And post the link which comes up at the end

Ajay09347274590 · Oct 9, 2015

Sorry for little late because i have to download 3dmark 1.5gb
My score with 3dmark firestrike
http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/8852898

and one more thing what i noticed is
while playing "Shadow of mordor" resolution:1360*768, in both graphics settings lowest or ultra high it gives 6-9 fps.
i pressed alt+tab to minimize it
and again when i get back to game it goes to 25-35fps and for few seconds, after that again the same 6-9fps.

Try down clocking the CPU and test again

I think your motherboard's vrm is overheating. Which cooler is installed?

Did you plugin an 8 pin atx12v power connector or just a 4 pin?

Ajay09347274590 · Oct 12, 2015

I tried down clocking cpu but the score was even worst...

I dont have any specific cooler but i do have 2 fans on the wall of CPU, my mobo is already equipped with heatsinks on every VRM.

I don't think so, VRM is not overheated they are at their normal temparature..

i have only 4pin atx12v rail

I am going to buy a Corsair VS 550 SMPS. will it solve the problem?

look at Tier one, two or three:

the corsair vs is not a good choice

8Pin ATX12V should be the solution. 4pins are not enough. Don´t use adapters, could burn your whole Pc or worse, your house

Thanks i gonna buy a Antec vp450p. its good enough within my budget.

Ajay09347274590 · Oct 21, 2015

The problem was my Graphic card..
Thermal paste between gpu & heatsink was removed by me, the temperature was 100'c so to decrease temp it down clocked itself and directly performance was degraded.
After i applied thermal paste it is running very smooth. and saw a dramatic change in FPS.
And i bought Antec VP500pc PSU, which is very good one.
