Get a cpu cooler and overclock your CPU. Cheapest upgrade. Overclock the r9 270x also.

The other option I can think of is to maybe get another 4gb r9 270x and just crossfire it with the current one, assuming that it's within budget.



MOBO: Asus m5a99fx pro r2.0
CPU: Amd fx 8350 4 Ghz
GPU: Sapphire r9 270x 4gb
RAM: kingston hyperx genesis DDR3 1600mhz (2x4) 8 GB
HDD: Western digital 1 TB
PSU: Cooler Master Vanguard 750W 80+ Gold

 
your system looks pretty good.. i might suggest a ssd for your os and games.. wont give you more fps but it will speed up booting and loading times.

do you feel it is lacking in any specific game?
 



No everything is ok, thank you for you answers, really helped me. 😀
