Hi, I recently made a computer, and it's supposed to be able to handle Battlefield 4 at ultra, 30+ fps.
I started playing metro last light, and Im getting less than 30.
Is there a problem?
AMD FX 6300 6 cpus 3.5ghz
8192mb of ram
amd r9 200
I dont know whats happening, i feel as though it should be able to handle this game pretty well.

See if you have the latest bios.Which bios can you find in the system summary" on the right half middle section,the window i asked you to close for the system specs->previous post.Look at the site from asus if it is the latest.

Do you have the latest drivers for the gpu?

You're ram is able to run @1600mhz,according to the system specs is it running @~1333mhz,see if you can change that in the bios.If you need to update the bios change it afterwards.It won't change the fps i think,but is imo a good thing to do anyway.

Not really a motherboard for overclocking=no cooling on the vrm's,so maybe leave that alone.

Two games you're talking about and one is even harder on the hardware than the other=>metro.Better not to compare those.

I assume you have a r9 270,lower your expectations and settings a little and enjoy your games. 😉
 
Thanks. I don't exactly know how to get the specs, but Ive been able to play bioshock infinite at ultra 50+fps.
This is the link, its advertisd as able to play bf4 at ultra, i know this guy he doesnt lie.

The card is a Dual X R9 270
Thanks for replying, both of you.
I know I sound like a little bitch, I would just like to know, in case I need to take it to a expert to see if something is happening.
Also, do you think that this build actually could run bf4 ultra?

 
Don't know if it's that important,but for system specs,

Download the next program,
http://www.hwinfo.com/download32.html
open it,click run,close the top window which is the system summary,click save report at the left top,in the next window at the bottom check=dot "short text report" after that next,you'll get to see what is in your pc,copy that by clicking "copy to clipboard" and right click and paste in you next post.

Looked for metro on high and,

with a way better cpu in the system.Maybe that overclocking will help a little if possible with your motherboard and you would need a good cooler too,chance is that the gpu is the botlleneck anyway,but like i said just lower your settings a little.
