    As others have mentioned, your setup is still good for gaming but it depends on the games you play and at what resolution.  A GPU upgrade should boost performance.
     
    Also used DDR3 is quite cheap nowadays might be a good idea to grab yourself 16GB of RAM or more.
     
    Cheap used i7 could also be an option.

    I had this same problem yesterday. I cleaned the bottom of the CPU with alcohol wipes (there was a slight stripe down a row of pads) and made sure the socket pins were not bent (there was one that was slightly lower than the rest) and made sure to install the cooler with even pressure, tightening slowly corner to corner.
     
    It did solve the issue eventually.
     
    I hope you get it sorted, I know how frustrating it can be.

    Is your cooler installed tightly onto the motherboard? If so you can try to loosen it a bit. This helped with my pc. But my setuation was a little different.

    Thank you for the suggestion! I updated the BIOS but it did not fix it unfortunately
