Hello. Since 3 weeks ago ive been struggling alot with fps drops caused by cpu underclocking itself and back to normal after a while. The result of this is that i drop a good 80 fps in world of warcraft and other games like league of legends, witch makes the game unplayable to the least. i dont know why its doing it, ive been searching on forums and getting tips everywhere i go without any results.
My specs:
mobo ASUS M5A78L LE
cpu AMD FX-Series 8150-Bulldozer
gpu Zotac GeForce GTX 670 2gb APM! Edition
ram 8gb ddr3
Things ive tried:
updating drivers/versions for; Bios, gfx card, chipset
playing around with settings in bios such as cpu acceleration , cool 'n quiet amongs other things
playing with or without vsync in wow as well as playing with and without addons
installed a brand ned h60 watercooler to keep the temps even lower
used cpu-z for monitoring
msi afterburner for gpu levels
tested it with prime (good temperatures but still underclocks and goes back to normal).
i balanced out the multiplier in bios to x19 = 3.8k and the games i play are stable now, but whenever i stream my normal load is 30%. ever so often it might go up to 50%+ causing my cores to underclock.
so that concludes: when cpu goes to mid/heavier load. it underclocks itself.(same thing happens when i use prime to load cpu to 100%)
when i visited the asus forum to look for answers they told me it probably was a cooling issue, witch just cant be the issue here since i installed a h60 watercooler keeping the temperatures at steady 25*
any ideas at all? id love input to sort this issue.
