Low frames on most games with good PC

[C130113146]

Okay, 

 

So I have had my PC for about 3 months now. When I bought it off of craigslist, it came with:

 

Fx 8320 8-Core 3.5ghz
GTX 750 1GB
16 GB DDR3 1600mhz
MSI 970 Mobo
Hitachi HDD 500gb
1200w PSU

 

I bought a brand new western digital black 1tb HDD. I installed windows 10 64-bit onto it and dowloaded a few games. 

I want to play GTA 5 online but I averaged about 20ish frames with the GTX 750. (All drivers have been updated)

I bought a new graphics card to see if I could get better frames on the game. (PowerColor R9 380x 4GB)

 

My current harware lists as this

 

Fx 8320 8-Core 3.8ghz (Overclocked to see if that would help)
R9 380x 4gb
16 GB DDR3 1600mhz
MSI 970 Mobo
Western Digital Black 1tb (Brand new)
1200w PSU

 

That STILL didn't help the issue. I did a fresh install of windows, downloaded nothing but steam, GTA 5, and the AMD drivers and still I only got 20-25 Frames.

Afterwards, I installed Minecraft to see how well that would run and I averaged about 50-60 frames. (My last PC with a R5 230 ran about 70 fps)

 

Is there anyone who has any ideas about why my computer is running games like crap?

 

Thanks!

What PSU is it?

AMD Drivers are terrible! I rarely get more than 30 FPS in any game.

Was not my choice. I bought the rig off of craigslist for $300. Although that's low It still has some decent parts and I expected more.

I would try installing an older graphics driver. I installed an older version of AMD Crimson and got slightly better performance.

I tried that. It didn't do much of anything.

Reinstall Windows? Is your monitor attached to the motherboard?

There are no ports to connect to on the motherboard. The monitors connect right into the 380x.
