Have you tried removing the cooler and re-applying thermal paste and putting it back?
Cooler is good for the FX.

Have you tried AMD Overdrive to make sure your temps are correct? Cuz HWMonitor isn't what's best actually to check AMD temps.
If you have large FPS drops, have you considered changing your rig? FXs aren't that good at all with games, you know?
I will try AMD OverDrive and try To re install the Cooler.
If none of this works i will also look into a new CPU as i didnt know that was the case. Thank you
are you using 1 fan or 2 fans on the evo 212
i have owned these cpus and they run quite hot
what case are you using ?
i got mines stable at 65c when heavy gaming
the fx are fine for gaming there not the best but they can game quite well in cpu heavy games mainly
i wouldnt change the rig for one component as that is a royal pain in the rear
if your using the stock paste that came with the evo that would explain alot its trash and rubbish
you will need the follow
Isopropyl Alcohol 99%
Johnson Baby Cotton Buds
Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut ( is name of thermal paste its best paste around if you cant get it get mx4 thermal paste instead)
anti static cloth or coffee filter paper
a small cemeric dish or cup youll never use that is clean
turn of pc and unplug hold power button to distrarge any electric left and then open up and remove cooler
ground yourself also if you dont have a grounding cable touch the case to disperse any static from you
pour the iso into the cup dip cue tip in it and clean the cooler with the cue tips ( use multiple do not redip same cue tip in the same solution use a new one or you will just be adding grease back on cpu lid and cooler)
get into all the nooks in the pipes and everything get it shiny and no traces of old thermal paste dry with anti static cloth or coffee filter same with cpu place cooler place to side with the contacts facing up do not get this dirty again or you will have to clean cpu cooler again.
also noted if you see any thermal paste on motherboard clean it of with same chemical it will evaporate as well so you may not have to dry it if its gone.
next reapplying the paste put a little more then a pea size dot these cpus require a bit more then the pea size someone recomends i know ive used these cpus before and the pea method is pretty much stupid it never covers the whole cpu lid on the amd fx
use a gift card hard plastic ( clean one and no credit cards as this can leave traces of crap from the cards) spread the paste evenly till you cant see the metal lid ( do not lift the card while spreading or you could create bubbles ) place the heatsink back on ( remove fans ) to tighten do it in a X one on each side this helps spread the paste more and squeezes out the excess finally once the heatsink is on go around the cpu socket with a cue tip run it round it this will pick up any squeezed out excess paste and also make it air tight forcing the heat to the cooler put on the 2 fans and plug them up
recomend below
i recomend
Akasa AK-CBFA04-15 PWM
and fans below

plug it up into cpu header and then fire up pc
hopefully your temps will be idling
30-37c idle
55c gaming 65c max
it does take a while for the paste to settle so give it a few weeks of gaming
as mine stayed at 60c gaming
