Ok, I waited for months for a deal to come around for a new CPU. I was using an AMD FX 4300 for a while, but it wasn't up to par with my demands. I stream a little to twitch in my free time and it just wasn't cutting it rendering gameplay and encoding for twitch. Found my deal on the 8320 and everything I read said it would fit the bill pretty well.
So, I mainly stick to Arma 3 as my go to game, deviate to DayZ sometimes. Since I installed the 8320 I can't find a single server online (either game) to give me more than 7fps, even on the lowest possible settings. I updated all drivers, went nuts through settings, nothing at all works . Its looking like I should have stuck with the fx4300, it got me 25+ even while streaming on med-high settings.
MoBo- MSI 970 Gaming
GPU- MSI r9 270x
My temps never really go above 45C, typically hover around somewhere in the 20s.
TL;DR
FX8320 sucks in comparison to FX4300 when playing Arma 3 and DayZ. Cant get above 7fps. Need help desperately.
