i5 4690K poor performance?

MEber1 · ‎03-21-2017

Hello,

I've got an i5 4690K and I'm getting always a 100% workloard while playing games (CS:GO for example). Watching a normal youtube video takes already 40% workload. As my workload is that high while playing games, I'm getting bad fps/stuttering which really is annoying. I wanted to overclock my CPU but the temperature is already at 65°C (stresstest) so I don't think I will get much out of it. Any idea to improve my situation? I think the CPU should be good enough to run a few games with good fps. Thanks in advance!

here are my specs:

4096MB MSI GeForce GTX 970
i5 4690K
16GB RAM DDR3
Asus Z97-P Intel Z97 So.1150 Dual Channel DDR3 ATX

Hello Acyx ,

Thank you for contacting the Intel community.

What is your Ram part number?

I suggest you to try a BIOS update on your motherboard, you should be able to download and follow BIOS update instructions from the ASUS website, and you can find the latest BIOS version here:

Also, make sure you have the latest graphics driver and all the latest drivers from ASUS.

Please let me know how it goes.
