I have a Gtx 970 is the fx4350 making me loose fps in games??

[FallenPale]

I was just wondering if my Gtx 970 is loosing fps by the cpu and if so should I consider a upgrade like a fx 9350 ???

 

[FallenPale]

Wouldn't that mean that I would have to change my motherboard???

One more question is 50-45 fps in gta v at very high - high good ??

Don't get a 9590, they are freaking power hungry, and will heat up everything in your case, go with Skylake.

Yeah but right now my cpu is at when gaming 65-75 temp so I would probably get water cooling if I get a 9350

You need a $150 board to run a 9590 so unless you have something high end on the 990 chipset it wont be happening.

If you're hitting 70c when gaming your CPU will be throttling - you need better cooling now.

Overall you'll pay the same price for an upgrade.

At least $60 for a decent water/liquid cooler.

For less than $280, you could overclock a i3 6100 (or better) on a z170 board.

Yeah but my fan is not at max it's like at 45

And as well I mean the gpu temp

Your fan speed is irrelevant, 9590s run HOT real HOT. You NEED a liquid or water cooler, or risk damaging your CPU and other components.
