I have the same exact pc build as this tech youtuber I watch who built it in one of his videos:

The only small difference is I opted for the Ballistix 8Gb single RAM stick instead of two 4Gb sticks he used in the video. So when comparing my fps in the same games + same graphics settings as in his benchmark at the end of the video, I was frustrated to find out I got substantially lower fps than he did. For example, Overwatch he is around 144 fps roughly and I get around 100 fps, in Rainbow 6 Siege he breaks 200 fps and my pc can never achieve that (it is around 160 fps roughly on mine) Any thoughts as to why ths is happening? Are my parts defective?
Edit: Forgot to mention I don't know whether he overclocked in his youtube video, but I was overclocking my cpu to 3.7 Ghz and my GPU to +110 Mhz Core +250 Mhz Memory.
