So I just upgraded my old AMD 64 3800+ single core with an AMD 64 5000+ Dual core. Everything booted fine, but when trying to play any games I'm getting much lower performance than I did with my old processor.
The only thing that really went weird with the processor install, is I noticed that the assembly that holds the heat sink in place was lose, and upon further investigation I noticed that the screws holding it in don't even go to anything threaded, so the heat sink assembly was sliding down a little until it was actually fully in place, now it seems fine.
Any suggestions?
