Your motherboard does not officially support your 8350 and the voltage regulator modules(vrm) on this motherboard are not equipped with heat sinks, that can lead to lagging while the CPU is downclocking if the VRMs are getting too hot. This CPU needs at least 8 cooled vrms to run stable.

Also your gpu is too weak to play at ultra or even high.
 
Yeah, its a combination of CPU throttle, and a outdated GPU. Just like Helpstar said, the VRM's are overheating. Look into a GTX 960 or AMD equivalent, and for the motherboard, I was having the same issue a couple days ago until I upgraded to this. This is a very good mobo at a good price.
