CPU: AMD FX-9370 4.4 GHz
MEM: 16GB DDR3
PS: Rosewell Lightning 1300W
COOLING: Corsair H60
MB: ASUS M5A97 LE R2.0
GC: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 (EVGA OC'ED)
SSD: Crucial
OS: Windows 7 Professional 64bit
So could use some help. I just finished building my second PC. First one completely on my own. I started running into some "lag" while playing Nosgoth and cs:go. It happened during heavy action. I made the assumption it was my wireless internet and thought nothing of it. I recently started playing the new Borderlands Pre-Sequel offline and found out the "lag" I thought I was seeing was really a drop in fps when a lot was happening in the game. It will happen on every graphics setting, which made me believe this is a cpu bottleneck. I just can't find anything online that would support any issues with this cpu/gc combo. I know AMD has a weaker thread workload than Intel, but I did not think I would have any problems with a PC game for years to come.
So my question is. Is there something I'm missing? The evidence is pointing to the cpu but that seems a little ridiculous with a brand new 4.4 GHz processor that is properly cooled. I also oc'ed it to 4.8 GHz to the same result. My weak link in my system is my mobo but that doesn't seem likely to me either. Is it really a cpu bottleneck?
