Hey there. As I stated in the topic, I want to get the upmost performance from my Fx-8350. I've had it for years and it never performed well enough. I'm just tired of this and want to play games without thinking about the low fps and stuttering. Are there any tweaks which could improve this system by any means ? Like, I just threw these rams hoping them to work and they did surprisingly, despite there are 3 different models there but i didn't tweak anything on the software side. I know this is a far-going question and I'm sorry about it but over the last 5-6 years I've set this system up part by part and it never performed the way it should. I literally played around with every single setting I could reach and now i'm tired of it. I just hope there are amd veterans who can help me. Sorry for the mistakes as English is not my native language and thanks in advance.

Memory is too slow, two different kinds. I suggest a kit of two 1866MHz.

You might be stuttering because of your GPU as well. Overall, this build is nearing it's end days as a gaming system.

I would not spend another dime on a FX system.
Or, at least on anything that can not be carried forward to a new build.
FX is obsolete.

FX processors and motherboards will overheat.
Try taking the case covers off and direct a house fan at the innards.
If you have been throttling, that could help.

Really, though, start saving for a current gen ryzen or intel processor, ddr4 ram and a new motherboard.

120gb is too small for a windows C drive.
Many things default to the C drive.
As it approaches full, it will slow down and lose endurance.

New system time. There’s no juice left to get with what you have
