So, for Christmas i received an R9 380 and was extremely exited to think that i could get great performance. Although, when i opened up a game such as minecraft or CS:GO, the frames were WORSE than my APU's graphics. I have the AMD 7400K APU.. is the CPU bottlenecking??

uninstall all your gpu drivers including intergrated and try a fresh install of amd catylyst , if that doesnt work do a fresh install of windows. Thats fixed my gpu problems multiple times
