Hello.
I've been having this problem since I bought this PC about a year or two ago.
A techie friend chose all the components and assured me it would be great, but I'm starting to think he may have chosen poorly. Yet, I'm no-one to judge, I have absolutely no idea about components and all the like. I know what each part does, but I have no clue of names, types, etc. or compatibility.
The issue is just that on games that aren't as simple to run as the solitaire (league, warcraft 3...) I always get times in which there's terrible fps. Regardless of the resolution or quality of the graphics, it just always happens. I get one minute of fluid, 60 fps; then 10 seconds of torturous, excruciating 5 fps. Then we're back to 60 for a while, then back to half an fps, then back to 60. As you'd understand, it's impossible to play games like Dark Souls with that, because the controls become really irresponsive when you're practically seeing a powerpoint presentation.
It sounds a lot like the computer is trying to cool off because of temperature reaching dangerous levels, but I've tracked it, and it's always at no higher than 50ºC on every component. Usually around 40 or 30. I also tried to deactivate thermal throttling from the BIOS but no results. I think it did help with Overwatch, but the rest of the games keep doing it, and I think Overwatch fixed itself with patches from Blizzard.
TL;DR: I get approximately 1 minute of awesome fps, then 10 seconds of 15fps, then I'm back to 60, then 10 for a few moments again, then 60, then 5. This always happens, regardless of the resolution or quality of the graphics. The only exception is League of Legends and older games.
Specs:
Processor: AMD FX(tm)-8350 Eight-Core Processor, 3991 Mhz, 4 procesadores principales (main processors), 8 procesadores lógicos (logical (?) processors)
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti (I guess this thing isn't too good anymore, but it should be able to run Dark Souls and Diablo III without these lags, no?)
It also says SyncMaster (1600x900@60Hz), which I guess it's to resize to my monitor, which is more like a TV but I think it can be used as a monitor too. On a side note, Nvidia always thinks I should run my games at a higher resolution, and I never understood why, maybe it's got a relation?)
CPU: AMD FX-8350
Vishera 32nm Technology
Motherboard: ASRock 990FX Extreme3 (CPUSocket)
Help me I beg you <3
