Sounds like thermal throttling.

 

Please give us the temps he gets during a gaming session (preferably one that maxes out the card).

Is he using GPU Boost?

GPU Boost cannot be disabled without modified firmware. Annoying I know.

Our Grace. The Feathered One. He shows us the way. His bob is majestic and shows us the path. Follow unto his guidance and His example. He knows the one true path. Our Saviour. Our Grace. Our Father Birb has taught us with His humble heart and gentle wing the way of the bob. Let us show Him our reverence and follow in His example. The True Path of the Feathered One. ~ Dimboble-dubabob III

Now that's something I didn't know.

Maybe your friend has lost the silicon lottery.

 

What games does your friend play? It seems like the 8320 could be restricting it if he's playing games that don't take advantage of threading well.

Seems pretty likely, but there's not really enough proof for it.

my old 8320 was bottlenecked by a 780ti but i hear ocing the chip should help. Mine was a dude so I couldn't overclock it without it going haywire.
