If its anything like Intel, you should be able to access the BIOS and overclock from there. I'm not too familiar with how AMD overclocks though.

I knew it was similar, but good to know ^^ I've never actually owned either and its annoying when benchmarks aren't always available

You probably just have a computer that is running to hot, find a program that reads your comps temp and get back to us, as that's an easy reason for low frame rate.

Sounds like a cpu or gpu problem, or overheating.
I know Asus rock motherboards limit cpu really low by default.
Go to control panel > system and check the number is normal aka says 2.8Ghz, else change it in the bios which you can get to by pressing 'delete or F12' before windows starts.
Hard work never killed, but why risk it?

well i dont have ur cpu or ur mainboard, so i cant tell u how to do it, but just google for overclocking guide and the name of ur cpu
btw. if you have the standard boxed cooler from amd, then you can forget the overclocking (you will need a custom cooler, today there are pretty good for <20€) and dont overclock over 1,4V for daily usage (atleast if you dont want to shorten the life of the cpu)

Uh 46 is not hot at all if that's what he's running at at load. If it's at idle, yes that's high, but idle temps never really matter. It's the load temps that are more important. To the guy above, are you referring to "Asrock" o.O? Definitely not Asus rock, XD.

Does reformatting get rid of all malware/viruses that may cause this problem? Also, is there any good way to check for hardware malfunctions?

I think I've fixed the issue for the most part. The issue was, you cannot use the AMD Overdrive feature. Overclocking anything makes it have way less FPS. Not sure why but, when I turn it off there is definitely a difference when it is off and on.

FPS with AMD Overdrive = 25
FPS without AMD Overdrive = 45+

My FPS obviously still drops to like 15 during big battles because of the CPU but it's definitely better.


Overdrive does a live/software based overclocked which is not actually good, just over clock it in from your mainboard.

And phenom's crush FX's btw, word.
