Hello Everyone,
I am pretty new to the computer scene and I have just bought my first ever "gaming computer". My build includes:
AMD 8350 processor
gtx 1070 ftw GPU
970 msi motherboard
8 GB of RAM
No Soild state drive
I have been trying to figure out why I'm only getting 20-30 FPS on games such as Insurgency and Rising Storm. I feel like my build should be able to handle more, but for some reason it cannot. The game looks good, but runs so slow and choppy, and I notice disk usage is at 90-100% while gaming, and runs about 0-10% while doing other tasks. I just unboxed this machine on Tuesday (9/9/2016) so it has been a really frustating experience due to me being new to the scene, and my brand new computer not working as I'd hoped.
I'm hoping to get some feedback, and maybye a point in the right direction as to why this is happening. Is disk usage high because I don't have a solid state? Could it be an overheating problem, or simply a bad drive? Just seeing if this problem gives out any red flags as to what the culprit seems to be.
Thanks everyone,
Michael.
