Hi guys,

I was running with:

AMD FX-6300 OCed to 4.5Ghz
R9 270x
8GB ram

I upgraded my graphics card to a 1060 GTX and their is no difference at all in fps on CS:GO or H1Z1. I knew their was going to be a bottlenecking issue but i thought the OC to 4.5Ghz and the 1060 GTX would of atleast give some improvement to fps?

Did you completely uninstall the amd graphics drivers using something like ddu then install the nvidia drivers? If playing online multiplayer it could be your internet connection or the server you happen to be on. Have you checked your cpu thermal margins using amd overdrive to make sure it's not overheating and thermal throttling?

From an article someone wrote regarding h1z1, it was only running on a couple cores. The article was from a year or so ago so I'm not sure what improvements if any they've made in that regard.

If it's only stressing a couple of cores then overclocking should have helped you a little but the additional cpu cores on an fx aren't going to gain you much...

I believe cs:go is also mostly cpu bound. Are you monitoring in game performance with an osd overlay from something like afterburner or fraps?

Using afterburner you can set it to show cpu usage, gpu usage etc and see what's being pushed to 100% use. If a couple of cores are at 100% use and your gpu is only running around 70% usage then it would be your cpu holding it back.
