hi i have a amd fx 8320, a r9 380 nitro edition, 16gb ddr3 16oomhz ram and a gigabyte GA-990x SLI-CF mobo. before i changed my motherboard i had a budget asus one and i noticed that in games my fps would drop from like 100+ to around 40 then back up so i changed the motherboard for a higher spec one and added more ram. i've got open hardware monitor and notice a drop in the cpu core clock speed and notice that in task manager the usage drops aswell. i have tried to add more volts to the cpu to try and fix this and i have also gone from the stock clock speed of 3.5ghz up to 4.4-4.5ghz to also try to eliminate this problem and i'm still having this stutter/fps drop does anyone know a solution to this and i've turned off turbo etc.
 
Solution
I have found the solution to this and if anyone else is wondering then then it was to do with frequencies but mostly to do with the voltage to my cpu, the auto preset wasn't giving it enough volts so when under load it throttled and i have since changed the voltage to 1.45v and changed some latencies now i have my fx 8320 running at a stable 4.5ghz with a max temp of 64.
