exactly the case for me too. i3's just aren't made to deal with ltos of stuff going on in the screen,they're designed to deal with few tasks fast.

im using i3-2100 and GTX 750 Ti with 8GB RAM..same problem bro.. if id were you id get some cheap i5 like i5-4460 and second stick if possible identical RAM, or atleast same voltage. i3's are terrible,we all acquired em due to lack of money/knowledge etc.

Haven't seen your PC cant be certain,but thats the case for me.. while my CPU is superior and GPU inferior to yours so it is very likely.. dualcores are lagging behind in latest generations games.
