FPS problems when gaming

[MadsNielsen58]

When i play games on my PC i can see lag if my FPS goes under 60. But when i watch some youtube video benchmark videos or gameplay where they are use shadowplay or fraps to show their fps they doesn't lag when it's even at 40-50 FPS. How can that be? And my computer info goes as this: CPU: AMD FX-8320 3.5GHz 8 Core, GPU: Geforce GTX 650 and 8 GB or ram. And i got an old 500w power supply if that could have anything to do with it.
My minitor is a Samsung S24C300 with runs at 60 hz. Hope someone can help me to understand this!

I dought you can see any lag at 50 FPS.
Youtube videos are recorded at 30 FPS.
Sometimes lag is between the ears when you say oh no I just droped below 60 FPS.

I know very little about PC's and how they work, but technically you're saying that i would be able to play games smooth at 30 FPS or how does that work? Because i with my setup or components i cant even play battlefield bad company 2 at low graphics at 1920x1080 resolution.

What do you mean with lag? Do you mean stuttering? It could be your graphics card is taxed to the max.
Sometimes that can happen with CPUs too but I've only seen it with dualcores.

Might be lag spikes or something like that... but thanks for the answer.
And just to know if it's not my pc that just is bad, what setting in like battlefield bad company 2 would you think my computer should be able to run at?

Make sure ur Cores are unparked, nd lower ur resolution

I haven't played the game and never owned same gfx card as you.

If you can, monitor your GPU utilization and D3D usage while playing. If those hit 99-100% and you experience a stutter. I imagine its the gfx card not being able to cope with the load.
Hwmonitor can show those I think.

I guess you are right, but i have some screenshots if you would please take a look at them: https://www.mediafire.com/folder/an7xws0s7y9s0go,aboczi1x2bola2s,b8y7yazv7p51xrk,yecpbakxa08tqps,vqsc1rrz8vscd31/shared

If it looks anything like this, turn down shaders and particles, fog or whatever it is.

Doesn't look like your gfx card is running out of memory and I doubt the processor is bottlenecking.

Weaker CPU than yours but better gfx card, looks smooth.

So I guess your gfx card is overloaded since its running 100% both on utilization and d3d usage.

Okay, thanks for the help.
