Good PC Low FPS

[RMCCurse]

Hi, there my names curse and I have recently bought a new gaming pc.
But, I seem to be having a problem when trying to game and cant quite figure out what the reason is.
My PC Specs are better than the required and recommended pc specs for the games but I always seem to have low fps even when running them on the lowest video settings please help me

Arma 3 - 20-25 fps
Last Man Standing - 20-45
That’s just 2 of the games and it is a reoccurring problem.

My PC Specs -

AMD Athlon X4 845 Quad Core Processor 3.80 GHz
16GB RAM (1600MHz DDR3)
1TB Hardrive
GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB
500W Power Supply
Gigabyte GA-F2A78M-HD2 motherboard

Hello RMCCurse,

Are all the games that you have problems with Steam games.

What is the brand and model name or number of the 500W PSU, want to check to make sure that it has more than 27 amps on the +12V rail.

just a generic 500W power supply
50-60Hz
Current 5A

Are all the games that you have problems with Steam games.

Can you also answer the above for us.

Not enough info regarding the PSU specs, where did you get the Hz and amp specs from, the PSU should have a sticker on it like the one in the attachment below;

Edit to add, have included another attachment for you which will hopefully emphasise the importance of us being able to check the PSU specifications, the example PSU claims to be 510W but when independently tested it could only produce 300W, you can check this yourself at the PSU database here the amps on the +12V rail would also be too low for your video card, your PSU is most likely fine but a low spec PSU could cause your type of poor performance and that is why we must check it.

If that is the PSU in your computer, the 12v rail does not have enough amps. Which would explain the issues you are having. As Phil stated above, your graphics card does require 27amps or above on the 12v rail.

If all games are played via Steam the problem could be with your internet service, download and run Valley Benchmark (free) from here this will put your video card through it paces and report your FPS.

Just noticed your follow up reply, still do the above but looking at the PSU at your link I suspect that you will still have the same problem, got to be blunt, that PSU is complete junk and you would do well to get rid of it asap, you may recall that I mentioned needing to check your PSU specs to make sure that it had at least 27 amps on the +12V rail, this is what your video card requires and sadly your PSU can only provide 22 amps and continuing to use this PSU will permanently damage all of your hardware and not just your GPU, a give away clue as to how poor the present PSU is, the price, you will struggle to find a good brand 500W PSU for any less than £45.00

If I may add on, if you want a decent 500W PSU with enough AMPS on the 12V rail. I would suggest an eVGA 500W. It has 40a on the 12V rail. The price is very fair aswell.

EVGA - Products - EVGA 500 W1, 80+ WHITE 500W, 3 Year Warranty, Power Supply 100-W1-0500-KR - 100-W1-0500-KR

Amazon.com: EVGA 500 W1, 80+ WHITE 500W Power Supply( 100-W1-0500-KR) : Electronics

[RMCCurse]

So i need to buy and instal my power supply ?

[phillpower2]

Correct, best I could find for the price + has a five year warranty EVGS B3 550W modular PSU

[RMCCurse]

could you send me a video or instructions on how to replace it I know where it goes but i need to know where to plug xxxx

Edit..
Unsuitable language edited out

[RMCCurse]

[phillpower2]

That is the same as the one I suggested here but your Amazon one is more expensive.

Excuse the title but see guide here
