I have an r9 280, 8gb of ram, fx 4100 and I'm using a HDD.
As most gamers did over the last week I bought Fallout 4. I have tweaked the settings a lot to get the best FPS my system will dish out. For the most part I'm playing at 40-60 fps but sometimes it can drop into the 20s and sometimes even lower. I have searched online and watched some benchmarks with the same GPU and people seem to be getting way better FPS than me.
Could the CPU be holding the GPU back?
Also I'm getting an FX 8350 and an SSD in the next few days and would like to know will I see much of an improvement in FPS? Thanks.
