I just got an i5 2400 today to upgrade from my i3 530 and in most games I am getting the same fps or in some cases im getting worse! can some one help me with this it is confusing me a lot, I thought an i5 2400 would have been better than an i3 530

Specs
i5 2400

240gb kingston
550w Bronze cooler master psu
