Hi guys,

So my brother received his new CPU today, the AMD FX 8350 Black Edition and after installing it he's been having some problems. As the title says, his games are capped at 53 fps and people in game are moving faster. We fixed the fps by disabling v-sync but it looks choppy when he looks around which sucks. We're puzzled as to why people are moving faster as well. As far as we know his components aren't running hot either. Some feedback on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

His Specs:
Windows 10 (Pre-anniversary update)
AMD FX-8350 Black Edition
GTX 970
8GB Ram
Gigabyte 970A-DS3P Motherboard

Which MMO are you playing.? and have you checked your Ping rate to the game server. If the game is poorly optimized then that will result in poor performance.

Other issues to look at are OCs on the CPU and GPU.
The FX-8350 are quite Over-clockable and can make the difference especially in CPU intensive games.
You only have 8GB ram and some AAA games require more. If the system RAM is saturated then paging would occur which can cause momentary pausing as files are written to disc. Solution to that is have 16GB.

In game and Nvidia settings can make a huge difference. Don't have everything maxed out. Shaders or post processing can effect performance. V-sync is very often rig dependent, some like it on and some like it off. Depends on...

Windows set to performance mode instead of best quality can make a difference.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for your reply MeanMachine41,

It actually fixed itself just now when we restarted the computer to mess with stuff in the BIOS lol. I appreciate you trying to help.
