7850 2GB Low FPS In every game (FX-6300, New PC)

[Noh]

I bought this PC yesterday and I'm very frustrated because it's not working the way it should.

GPU: MSI 7850 2GB
CPU: FX 6300
MB: M5A97 R2.0
Mem: 2x4 GB Kingston HyperX 1600 MHz

Every game I tried I get very low fps + fps drops.
For example Legue of Legends is going around 35 fps maxed out. In teamfights it skips frames and has around 10 fps.
GTA IV is unplayable at max settings yet I see videos on YT playing the game at around 60fps.
Even at lower setting I don't get a bigger improvement.

I checked in the MSI Afterburner and the card is not even reaching 50% of it's potential. For LoL, its sometimes gets to 100% and then drops to 0%.

I forgot to say that temperatures are normal and drivers are updated.

if you over clocked your cards set them back to normal. get rid of afterburner. shut down machine. unplug. reset cmos. reboot. play. what happens?

 

[iam2thecrowe]

thats normal for gtaiv, it runs like crap on all new systems, particularly on the newest patch. Dont try max out the settings on it, its a poorly coded game. Try a differrent game that is better optimized, like bf3 or skyrim

 

[Noh]

Then explain me this please.

Hey man, I accidentally found these Catalyst settings on some local benchmark forum. LoL is fully playable, GTA is solid but still with drops, Battlefield 3 single player rocks on ultra. I tried a few others and they were also fine. You should try it out.

I'm sorry, I'm confused. Did you just answer your own question as if it wasn't your question to begin with? LOL

 

[Noh]

Lol. Someone posted something like "Help this man and us all", And since I found the solution I wanted to answer but didn't quote him. It looks like he posted in the wrong thread and deleted his post.

Yeah... what was the solution for you?
