Ok so i just bought a new PC and spent about $850 on it. my specs are
AMD FX 8320 3.5Ghz
1TB HDD
Gigabyte OC Gtx 660
8 GB ram
windows 8.1 64 bit
I thinks thats the important stuff
but anyway's, i just bought this PC maybe a month or so ago? and I mainly use this PC for Dayz and Dayz SA. when i first started playing i was running mostly around 50-60 FPS, now a month later i am running about 20-30. I've been thinking about doing an OC on my card but i am a bit scared as i have heard it voids your warranty and it is easy to mess up. my GPU NEVER gets above 50 degrees C. highest i have ever had it was while doing the FurMark test and i only got it to 67 degrees. i feel as if this is almost too cold? right now after running dayz for the past hour im at 30 degrees C. i dont have nay kind of liquid cooling or anything like that i just have the basic fans and the 3 fans the case came with.
so i guess i just need a few of these questions awnsered
1. Is my computer running games the way it should be
2. should my GPU be getting hotter then it is, i know cooler is better but maybe it isnt getting the power it should be?
3. should i OC my card and if i should are there and guides and or tutorials on programs to use and how to do it?
4. Why the decline in FPS of my games? is something wrong with my computer?
Thanks much in advance look forward to your responses!
