Specs :


 


PSU : 600W CX600M


GPU : R9 270x Toxic OC


CPU : AMD FX-9590 ( 225W TDP )


Case : T28 Sharkoon


Motherboard : GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3


CPU Cooler : Seidon 120v


Hard Drive : 500GB Western Digital


RAM : 8GB


 


I just bought ProtoType 2 and it is super laggy getting around 7fps. I think the PSU cannot handle it but I wanted your guys opinions if that really is the problem as I am saving up for a 750w gold power supply from Supersonic. Anyways, thanks in advance for any  help/suggestions !

Your CPU is overheating. You need to fix that.

 

Either do what I said from before, or change the cooler on the CPU. 

 

Your 225W TDP CPU requires a LOT of cooling.

Please dont waste money on a more poweful PSU, its just thowing money away. Invest in a strong CPU cooler and a better GPU. Your 600W PSU will handle a hell of a lot more

I am not sure how to do that. I went to the BIOS and there were 4 options - Manual Auto Disabled Or Silent

Set the system fan profiles to "disabled". Heck, set them all to disabled. The CPU and the system.

 

This will enable the fans and pump to run at 100%

Low fps isnt going to be solved by a new cooler. Do you have the latest drivers? Are other games also getting low fps?

try changing game settings around see if you have any changes, also check your gpu drivers i don't think your power supply is the problem

He's saying you should use the Linus Tech Tips affiliate code to buy a new cooler at Amazon so the website will get money for your purchase.

Does this happen with all games? I know Prototype 2 is not optimized at all for anything.

Dude... He doesn't know how to change the fan profile. Do you really think he's well versed in overclocking?
