Shit i know what should i do now :(

well, you were thinking of selling the GPU.  Instead sell the CPU and motherboard, and try something like a i5 6500, depending on your budget

What if i Sell my R9 380 4GB + Fx-6300 + Motherboard and get money then buy I5-4460 with motherboard some how decent and GTX-960 4gb ?? im sure I have $100 extra on me right me.. so.. 

GTX 960 is worse hen a 380. Like seriously worse.

 

you would get some FPS in some games thanks to the i5, and lose FPS in other games thanks to the GTX 960 being a weaker product.

 

For fucks sake, just tought it out for 2-3 months, build up some cash and BUY A NEW CPU AND MOBO.

So best option to just stick with what he's got for now and maybe plan a build later with more money?

 

OP if all you are worried about is tearing, look into vsync :)  Just remember to turn down the maximum pre-rendered frames to 1 or 0 or whatever the minimum is to avoid tons of input lag

it could be due to his ASUS board VRMs overheating and causing CPU throttling. If anything he COULD invest in a couple of better case fans, like 2-3 NF-F12s to improve airflow. And maybe buy some motherboard heatsinks and thermal pads off amazon and mod his mobo. But other then that, he is fucked with that baord. and his Kingston RAM is massive overpriced.

oh shut it. Ive had a FX 8320 for years. You can play games just fine, and in most cases it is more down to background tasks fucking things up, or if the IPC is the problem, you OC the CPU.

 

However your motherboard is a atrocious piece of shit and is either the cause of the CPU bottleneck, or will cause one once you try to OC.

You're life's not over, calm down :P 

Turn down the settings or something until you can get other hardware.  I assume by the fact you don't have much cash that you're not like 86 or something like that, so I think you've got plenty of life left to play games smoothly with :)

 

And again, if you missed my bit about vsync, go read it again if tearing is your issue.

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

Well if you can sell this for $1000 that'd be great!  I guess there's always someone out there who doesn't know better xD  Post it as "ultimate gaming machine" or something like that, if you're morally OK with it :D
