So I bought a second hand gaming PC (I accept this is risky), and it just doesn't seem to perform the way it should be, the specification is as follows:
CPU - AMD FX-6100
GPU - AMD Radeon HD 7900 series (7950 XFX)
RAM - DDR3 16GB
Motherboard - MSI 760GM-P23(FC) (MS-7641)
I can run most games, but the FPS drops significantly sometimes without any explanation, I can run games like bioshock infinite, but only on around medium settings at around 20-40 fps. Also, I run League of Legends on low graphics and it still drops to around 9 fps sometimes, even when there is nothing running in the background. I've done a bit of research and the motherboard is rather cheap, but I didn't think the motherboard effected fps to such a large extent? Do I need to purchase a new motherboard? Or maybe a new GPU, CPU and motherboard? I just don't see how that's necessary when my GPU and CPU are pretty high performing?
