Frame Drop in Games Help !
Hi, I purchased a GT 1030 graphics card previously (I had a GT 210). I upgraded from Core 2 Duo E7500 to a used Core 2 Quad Q9550. I noticed the temperature is around 80°C, which is above the maximum allowed for Core 2 Quad on Intel's site (71°C). After that, I observed significant performance drops in games—something like CS GO at 720p where everything ran at about 100 FPS then dropped to around 5 FPS. Other titles also suffered. I’m curious about what might be causing this issue.
Thanks
P.S.: My system specs are: 4GB RAM, GT 1030, Core 2 Quad Q9550, M.UI G41M-P26, MSI G41M-P26 MB, and a 500W power supply (though it's actually around 350W). The monitor is 1080p.
I resolved the issue by reinstalling windows. Thanks for the assistance.
