So recently, I upgraded my pc from an old 1st gen i7 975 extreme edition, and an evga 750 ti ftw. I could run most of my games perfectly fine, but I started to notice it was about time to upgrade my pc. So I got myself a gigabyte 1050ti 4gb or without 6 pins, and a fx 8350. The motherboard is a 970A-DS3P FX, my pc runs games slower and the benchmark is also worse. I just don't understand what the issue could be, the only issue I had when setting up was the ethernet. I had to route it through the router, because it wouldn't connect it kept giving me an error, I do know the router is about a decade old or so.

Well it could be heat throttling like what you said. The stock coolers for AMD systems are trash. What temp does it run on a heavy load?


On my old PC build that had the AMD FX-8350. I noticed it was not preforming as well when it reached around 60 C. If thats the case you could try under clock it down to 3.3 GHz.

When you get the money I suggest upgrading the cooler. This is an air cooler I used. However this one includes one more stock fan than mine did.

I attached another fan to my heat sink so it pretty much the same as the one i listed above and I'm getting maxed out at 35 C on the Ryzen 7 1700 overclocked @3.70GHz

Honestly you should reinstall windows. there could be other software/drivers that could be interfering with you current build.

Yeah, just reinstall and back up important files. I Suggest using Microsoft web site to create a 3.0 USB installation. This will allow windows to reinstall in a few minutes.

I'm not to sure what you mean about the gigabyte folder. Is the gigabyte folder what was on the CD that came with your motherboard?

This didn't fix my main issue, I was running most of my games perfectly fine before this.Now after some of my games are slow as in they will run but get huge lag spikes, which leads me to think I'm temp throttling since I'm using the stock cooler. My gfx card never gets hot also.
