Hello,
Im here to wall of text you guys with some questions, and see if i cant get a few good answers.
Heres the specs first, then the problem:
Specs:
AMD Radeon A8-7640m
8 Gig ram (1 stick/DDR3)
240 GB SSD
Quad Core CPU
Benchmarks-CPU-Z:
BEFORE Hardware Changes
620
single thread
1600
multithread
AFTER hardware changes:
600
single thread
1400
multithread
Heres the problem, yesterday i bought a single 8 gig DDR3 Ram stick to replace my 2 gig and 4 gig (full 6 gig) ddr3 ram setup (cant remember the voltage) the new one is running at 1.5 volts for all cores, and clocks at 800.
I also bought a SSD 240 Gig PNY and installed that as well
Playing csgo, i was getting around 90 frames steady per second on Dust 2 (if you dont know what dust two is....LOL)
after the hardware updates, Im lucky to get a steady FPS at all. I get between 47-74, depending where in the map i stand.
the only things i have changed:
The SSD
The Ram Stick/sticks
and instead of Catalyst Control Center, im now using Beta AMD Crimson
what is causing the slowdown??? is it the RAM? should i reinstall my other sticks?
or do you think its possible to put another one of the other sticks in, if its running at 1.5 volts?
please help, this is hurting my gaming, and my head
