FPS issues in gaming

I'm having serious problems with my frames per second in video games.
I'm wondering if my Mobo or my CPU could be potentially bottle necking me, considering I just upgraded my GPU to a 1060, and when I go from Very Low settings to Ultra settings I see almost no change in FPS (although it looks much nicer).

My Build:
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6gb
CPU: AMD FX(tm)-8350 Eight-Core Processor 4.0 GHz
Mobo: GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3 AM3+
RAM: 32gb RAM DDR3 (4 sticks)
Harddrive: SAMSUNG 840 EVO 250GB (for OS and Games only, other HDD's for storage)
PSU: 850Watt
OS: Windows 10

I usually play: League of Legends (LoL) or Playerunknown Battle Grounds (pubg), but the FPS issue seems to be across the board with any game... I upgraded from a 660 FTW 3gb if that helps.

What I have attempted: Updated all my drivers, reinstalling windows, and moving GPU to other pci ports. Temperature seems to be where it should be for CPU and GPU... I'm at a complete loss.
Thanks in Advanced!

Are you sure your HDMI cable is plugged into the GPU and not the motherboard?

Yes 100%, there is no on board graphics for this motherboard.
