Hi, yesterday I played GTA V for 3 hours, after that I went to play League of Legends. My FPS in League was dropping 30 - 50 fps compared to normaly. I checked the temperatures, my I3 4170 idles at 35 C and my R9 280x idles at 38C. I did a stress test with AIDA 64 and the CPU reached 77 C while the graphics card reached 78 C, no thermal throtteling was noticed. What could be the problem?

Well stress test for 3 hours and then tell us. Or just run unigen valley or whatever. It could be that  would heat up overtime and then throttle.

Dropping 30-50fps or dropping to 30-50fps? Whats your normal fps? List also full system specs. There's no way you are thermal throttling with those temps.

Like what? You already have max temps set. Intel chips are fine up to 85C. Same goes with both nVidia and AMD GPUs.

Full specs:

I3 4170

R9 280x

8 GB RAM

AS ROCK HDS H81M R2.0

WD Caviar Blue 1 TB

Cooler Master B500 ver. 2

It drops 30-50 fps, I have League capped at 144 FPS and dropped somewhere between 95 - 120

Should I stress it for 3 hours then?

Is it noticeable in gameplay? I think its sometimes in background which starts to use CPU. Its the weakest component there.

So it isn't running correctly even after a restart? That's super odd.

 

I'd run Afterburner OSD, and keep an eye on CPU usage, GPU usage, RAM usage, temps, and clock speeds.

 

See if you can correlate lag spikes or fps drops to the rise or fall in the utilization of these components.

 

 

I was having an issue earlier today where my GTA performance was abyssmal. Took a look at the OSD, and saw it was only using 2Gb of ram. Turns out Windows decided it only wanted to recognize 3Gb of my system ram. Restart temporarily fixed it, and performance returned to normal. Symptoms of my particular issue were low RAM usage, and low GPU utilization.
