Okay so ive posted once and resolved some of my issues, but still i have the problem where my CPU core clocks drop from 4100mhz to 1400mhz when playing WoW? Idle speed seems to be at 4100mhz for some reason since i have disabled PowerNow in the BIOS. CPU temps never ever get above 50 degrees...

BUMP

Still throttling down to 1400mhz really bad, what should i be looking to disable in the bios? there is no cool n quiet on this motherboard, A960D+ Please someone im desperate and so confused!

Ah okay! CPUz does give all 4 cores you have to click on the box though to show it, and i checked it shuts down all 4 to idle when the Lag arrives, but right now im sitting on desktop, idle, and its at 4.2ghz (yes it is slightly overclocked) and under full load, it does not exceed 51 degrees C...

my PC has no HDD light :/ it seems to sit at around 45 degrees C under full load, could there be a setting in the bios i need to disable? if the cpu was not needed, why would fps drop so low? :( A960D+ is the mobo, what should i look for in the bios?

Oh that makes alot more sense about the AMD/INTEL difference! And also guys look, i think im onto the problem with FPS drops! i think my core keeps shutting down to idle mid game! i have played and then opened CPUZ whilst the fps drop and it shows the core is down to idle at 1400mhz! then when...

Do you think a 6300 would make that much of a difference? Also any ideas on whats causing these FPS spikes? i found that they were worse in my brothers PC, than in mine, although all of the PSU/MOBO/CPU are the same :S sooo confused :(

So basically my CPU is a vital part of this 'single threaded performance'? (excuse me i am a total newb) and due to my CPU being...Gaaasshh, this is whats holding me back? and my CPU never really gets above 45-50 degrees even under load, if i overclock through the BIOS, what damage could this...

Okay, just got back into playing PC now, and have a bit of an issue with FPS, in most games. Before i go on, here is my spec : ASUS GTX660 2gb DDR5 OC AMD FX4300 3.8GHZ quad core BioStar A960D+ 8GB 1333mhz Ram 500W PSU 1920x1080 AOC 23" LED monitor Windows 7 HP 64bit Okay so the issue is...

Hello! Just got back into playing games, bought myself an ASUS GTX750 1GB GDDR5 OC edition video card. If i get back into it a bit more then i will probably upgrade to a 660 OR 760. Okay so, will run WoW on ultra @40-50fps, and @10-20fps in the high load areas, and most games on high...
