Hi guys, i recently change my motherboard & processor...

I used to have a ASUS b-85 Pro Gamer and i changed it to a Aorus X370 K5..

And a i5 4660 to a Amd apu a10 9700.

i used to run a lot of games at 160 fps but now with the same config i run them with 40-50fps

I don't know why, because in the benchmarks it says a10 is better... Plz Help!!!
 
Unless I'm mistaken the a10 9700 is significantly weaker as a processor. Use a monitoring program such as MSI afterburner and see the CPU/GPU usage to monitor any bottlenecks. Also since your upgrade did you do a clean install of windows or at least install the chipset drivers for your new system?
 


I saw a lot of benchmarks saying a10 was better... idk...
I cleaned windows and installed all the drivers.
I will try monitoring cpu & gpu... Thanks for the answer!
 


So in this case something's not right. Even though I also agree your previous CPU was better for gaming, but when using dedicated GPU you should not loose that much. 10%, maybe even 20-30%, but 160 FPS down to 50 is like 60% loose. Make sure games are using gtx 960 and not the APU.
 


Im using the gtx
