FPS Drops In All Games

[DavidMotionless]

Hey guys. I have a problem, i have fps drops in all games i play(GTA V, Leauge of Legends,Rainbow 6 siege, BF 4, CS GO) When i turn on the computer it is all normal for about one and a half hour but after that i start geting fps drops, from about 60-100( depends on a game) to 20-30.I had a few problems with my computers so i repaired it few times and installed new windows(it was "repaired every 2 months becouse of some new problem ocurred) before that i had no fps drops but now i have them. I have CAM monitoring app and whenever cpu jumps from around 30 to 100 i have that fps drop. Could it be that all of dose repairs damanged the CPU? Maybe it is overheating? PLS Help <3

Here are my specs:
CPU: AMD FX(tm)-4100 Quad-core Processor 3.60 GHz
RAM: 8Gb
GPU: NVidia GeForce GT 630
64 bit OS WIndows 10

Honestly, I am surprised that you ever get more than 20-30 FPS. The GT 630 is well below minimum requirements for that game. Most games will run OK with a GPU under spec, but that is way underspec to be honest.

I know its bad GPU but its killing me that before i had no fps drops but now i have them

Honestly as time goes on things stop working as good as they did the day you bought it. Just like a car. You use it for so long and drive it so far, it can only go for so long. Depends on how old it is. All else fails grab nails and a hammer and a piece of wood hammer two nails into it with the wood and then stick it up somewhere like a picture frame to remember its glory days. Or you could make it your pet GPU. It's name can be Geppuy. Make sure to keep it warm but not to warm during the day. He's also retired. Make sure to feed him every year with Thermal paste. And water him with salt water. If it needs to use the restroom put it under your pillow and help it make his parts come out.

Hope this helps!

The time going on thing is a very good point. I know every so often with Windows, it is a good idea to back up your data and then do a fresh install. It is amazing how much smoother it will run. Installing and uninstalling a lot of programs tend to leave bits and pieces behind that makes the PC become sluggish. A fresh install will never hurt anything so long as you remember to back up all your data so you don't lose it.

It could be updates for the games themselves bumping up requirements. Often as patches come out and add on material, it will increase the minimum specs required. It could be when they first came out they squeeked in but now they don't.

If im going to need to upgrade my pc, what do you suggest me upgrading? CPU or GPU ? And which one should i buy?

Honestly, both need upgrading. But between those two I would do the GPU first. But the only problem is, if you upgrade your GPU, you are still going to bottleneck with that CPU, but I think if you could only afford to do one at the moment it should be the GPU. It is hard to say what CPU you should get. You have a MB with a AM3 socket, so that limits what you can purchase without replace the entire motherboard. And even if you stick with a new FX processor, without knowing what board you have, it is hard to say for sure because of wattage usage. The FX8100 will handle 95 watts of power, but the FX8350 does 125 watts, so you have to make sure what wattage your motherboard can supply your CPU. For the GPU, you can get a GTX1050Ti fairly inexpensively and it will works heads and tails above that 630. A 1060 would be ideally be better, but not without a much better CPU than what you have.

Do you know what motherboard you have and what size power supply you have?

Motherboard: ASRock 960GM-GS3 FX
I am not rly sure about the power supply, when i find out il answer

 

[Bo Lee]

With that board, you might not be able to do a 125 watt processor, so that would rule out a FX8350, but it looks like you can do an 8320 and perhaps have some luck overclocking it a bit. Some people will tell you that the FX processors aren't any good, but I have an 8350 and plays games on ultra quality with no issues. The 8370E is just 95 watts but isn't that much better than the 8320. You can OC more then the 8370, but the base clock is a bit better on the 8320 and with the MB not wanting to push more voltage, overclocking probably won't work well anyway, so I would go with the 8320.

That should work well with a GTX1050ti card. While GPUs are kind of pricey right now, the 1050ti isn't overly expensive and does not require an external power connector, which not knowing your power supply and if it has an external connector for the GPU, that could be the best choice.

That should give you a noticeable performance increase. An entire new setup would be best, but if you are on a budget, the 8320 and 1050ti combo will probably be the best budget combo.

Just my personal opinion. Make of it what you will and good luck.

Thank you very much for ur help ! Il see how much money i can save up and see what can i get !

Hey, i fixed my problem, but the problem wasnt in my GPU or my CPU, It was my HDD, i boght a new one and it fixed the problem.

Good deal. I hadn't thought about that, but I can see how that could be an issue.

 

[ohiou_grad_2006]

Makes sense. I just built a new system, as I was downloading works of warships in the background and attempting to play another game and was getting massive fps drops.

That said, a 1050ti would be a decent upgrade. If you are gaming though, you will want to start saving for a new build.

 

[ohiou_grad_2006]

Glad you were able to fix it
