High End Machine not too good

[Robson Votri]

Hi...
Well my specs are: Windows 8.1, MB: Asus Sabertooth 990FX R2.0, Video Radeon R9 280X 3G 384Bits, 2x 8Gb memory Corsair Vengeance, CPU AMD Vishera FX 8350 8Cores @ 4.0, Power Supply Corsair 750W. into a real gamer Case, with powerful cooling system, Drivers updated too,

But a lot of games come into "lag" sometimes, i use to play Far Cry 4, when looking around, i notice a fps falling, place where there is much itens, like villages, the game become more slow too. I mean, this computer should be a lot faster, but it's not, even in windows processes, internet etc... it hangs a second, i'm a bit disappointed, but I'm suspicious that the problem is a hardware incompatibility or wrong frequency adjustment , I also read that these Vishera processors are not that good, so did i made a bad deal buying it?
I always liked AMD, but now i'm seeing Intel "i"s series are become more powerful, in a comparisson, what the "i" processor has the same power of mine?

Thanks

Modern Intel CPUs provide a lot better performance per core which is better for gaming and everyday, simple tasks. Multitasking on your CPU should be good though because it has eight cores to utilise.

The GPU is the bottleneck according to Game Debate. Link: http://www.game-debate.com/games/index.php?g_id=8147&game=Far+Cry+4&p_make=AMD&p_deriv=FX-8350&gc_make=ATI&gc_deriv=Radeon+R9+280X&ram=16&checkSubmit=#systemRequirements

You need to overclock that processor up to around 4.8 or so to get the stink out in CPU intensive games.

Maaan , i bought this one thinking i would not have issues ... So! You think i would have a good enhancing by switching the graphics card? Would you reccomend one that meet my hardware? I mean , i do not want to buy the most powerful one , but the one that will not bootlenecks my system anymore ...

Thanks in advance

I already did around 5.2ghz btw it still got laggy gaming, and in this way, things get real hot
