So, here is my problem. I just built a pc for my fiance to play battlefield on really lol. 

AMD 8320 @ 4Ghz 
8G Ram 
650W PSU 
Asus R9 270x 
1TB WD HDD 


I put it together and tested it at my house, all was well getting great performance in and out of game, I took it to her house hooked it up and for some reason i feel like there is something going on with her CPU. 
In the BIOS it states that its running at 60c, which is wicked hot for idle. So i reseated it,, even re aplied different thermal paste.. Same exact thing. I made sure all the power connectors and everything were firmly seated to everything on the motherboard. So im out of options at this point and have no idea what is going on. I unplugged my 770 from my pc and put her 270x in there and its running everything pretty much maxed out on my pc. After i installed the drivers of course. 

I5 3570K 
750W PSU 
8G RAM 
128 SSD 
1TB HDD 

When i was bench marking her stuff at her house i had the graph up "perfoverlay.drawgraph 1" and the cpu literally was spiking every couple random seconds way off the charts like, to the top of her monitor. But the card is maxing out everything on my pc no problem. 

What do you guys think the issue could be? Could it be a bad chip or what? Also note that is was running her BF4 on low and struggling no matter what the settings were of the resolution.

try dat 

 

got to your bf4 doc (C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 4) and go to properties of Bf4 and Bf4_86. go to compatibilities and select execute as administrator. do this on both. and i did it for origin too.

 

didnt had any fps loss after that."

 

good luck.

may your framerates be high and your temperatures be low. #pcmr

Hey Tyyy,
 
Please use the correct formatting of writing as there is nothing visible without marking the text (as if it was written in white).
 
Those specs should provide you with very high performance rates. Did you make sure all the fans are working properly after you moved the build to her house? Maybe something moved out of its place and the build is not cooled properly. Try reseating everything from scratch.
Also, make sure the computer is sitting on a firm ground (no fluffy carpets or whatsoever) with enough air around it so it can cool itself properly. do a stress test once you have reassembled everything to see if any of the parts is faulty.
 
Keep us updated on how this is going. :)
