Fm2-a85xma-e35 A10 5800k poor graphics performance

Hi guys,
Made a new build with fm2-a85xma-e35 and A10 5800k and getting very poor graphics. Windows
WEI aero score of 4.8, wow running at ~25 fps on low, poor Photoshop open gl performance, and choppy Windows performance when dragging  Windows around. Feels like no graphics driver is installed. Been tinkering for a week and even rma'ed a new apu and still the same. I know people say get an independent graphics card for good performance, but this is the issue of the apu not working properly on this board and not me trying to get gtx performance from an apu. Anyone have this combo can help? Thanks!
Specs:
A10 5800k
CCC 13.12
Fm2-a85xma-e35 bios v2.2
Gskill ripjawsx 2x4g 2133 9-11-11-31 running properly in dual channel
Antec neo eco 400c psu
Win7 ultimate 64 bit sp1

try dedicating some more Memory to it in BIOS! (it may be being choked there!)
I dedicated memory to 1gig and still the same results. Stock was at 768mb. others are set at 512mb and still have proper test results. I don't think it's the vram, there's definitely something wrong.
Only thing is I'm using ripjawsx 2133 ram, on MSI's site it states max supported is 1600 ram for ripjawsx. Ram runs fine but wondering if that can be causing a problem?
I really don't want to RMA the board as it'll take 15 days to test and determine if it's faulty before sending me a new one IF it's determined to be faulty. Everything is working on the board except the poor graphics of the APU and the current buzzing sound with cool n quiet on.
I also RMA'd the cpu already, but what are the chances of me getting 2 bad CPU's in a row?

  • [SOLVED] FM2-A75MA-E35 A10-5800K no Max Turbo

    Hello, I have a MSI FM2-A75MA-E35 motherboard with the 1.41 Beta Bios & AMD A10-5800K with DDR3 1600Mhz & Windows 8 Pro. I did the factory reset by hitting F6 to go back to stock bios, now when I put Intel XMP enable on then save the setting. when I boot into Windows 8 Pro the A10-5800K show the processor 3.80ghz as Max Speed which is normal, when I encode a video it run at 3.95ghz but not at 4.2ghz. all I did in the setting is enable Intel XMP & that it. I have not touch anything else, Max Turbo is in auto. 

      Thanks for reporting back!

  • Unable to change CPU or Turbo multipliers in UEFI - FM2-A85XMA-E35

    FM2-A85XMA-E35 UEFI 2.1
    A10-6800K Richland
    Right now, the CPU Base Frequency, CPU multiplier, Turbo multiplier, and all Voltages in UEFI do not change. It seems as if these settings are locked.
    It is possible to change these settings inside Windows, using MSI Control Center or AMD OverDrive.
    However, I want to change the multipliers before Windows boot, for the purpose of Linux testing.

    I was trying to change the settings by double-clicking with the mouse. This works for many of the settings, but not for other settings.
    +/- keys works. Problem solved. That was easy. Thanks. 

  • Poor graphics performance.

    My rMBP has poor graphical performance compared to other rMBP. I think there might be something wrong inside it. Appstore or Steam games for Mac  (Bioshock Inf and Max Payne 3) at lowest graphical settings will give me between 5-10FPS. I think this might be weird for such a well specced computer.
    List any troubleshooting steps you've already tried, or temporary fixes you've discovered.
    Formatting, bootcamp with Win7, Updating to mavericks, stopping apps, Reset SMC.
    Nothing has worked yet. I don't play games often, but since i first started trying a few times last year, i've noticed that it's almost impossible,

    You should be getting more FPS. Do you have switched graphic card option on or off in the energy saving section?

  • Poor graphics performance over time

    I've seen an issue ever since upgrading to Lion where after some period of time (haven't nailed down how long, but measured in hours) 3D game performance suffers greatly (60+fps down to 12fps).  Rebooting fixes the issue until it sits long enough.
    The drop doesn't seem to happen mid-game... only after leaving for a while and returning to the computer.   I've run all the usual diagnostics.  The iMac does not "sleep" during that time (i have it set to always on).  During the performance slow down, all system stats look normal: no spikes in CPU usage, memory usage, etc.  All internal temperatures report out normal as well.   No other hardware or software changes other than the Lion upgrade.  When the FPS slow down is occuring, all system animations also suffer (sliding in Dashboard, Dock magnification, etc).   Quit the game and the system animations come back to full speed.
    The game I play most often's technical support is worthless (i'm looking at you Blizzard), so I'm hoping someone else has run in to this issue, or that an actual support person can help without telling me to run a permissions check. 
    Thanks!

    I just bought this MacBook Pro the 26th and it came with Leopard. After installing XP on the system, I can't get over the fact of the poor graphics performance. Even moving windows would result in a bad frame rate. Obviously, this is caused by a lack of "good" drivers for the GeForce 8600M GT. The drivers from Nvidia aren't working, so either this is the best of Windows I'm getting on this system or there's some sort of driver that I haven't heard of. Does anyone have any insight on this?

  • FM2-A85XMA-E35 Micro-ATX Standoff hole problem

    I am a new builder(2nd build) I have the FM2-A85XMA-E35 Micro-ATX board that has 6 standoff holes in it. The case I purchased the NZXT Source 210 Elite calls for 9 standoffs for the Micro ATX form factor(U1-U9). I guess I just need to remove the 3 standoffs that don't match up with the holes.  Kind of a serious oversight especially for newbies that might just go ahead and put the board in and risk shorting the board because NZXT has this kind of set up for Micro ATX.
    I wonder how many new builders messed up their boards because of this problem?  Any insight or experience with this issue would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    the  NZXT Source 210 Elite is a ATX case! you can tell that by there being 7 expansion slots for PCI at the rear!
    a micro-ATX board will fit as it has the holes needed for multiple form factors (ATX, MICRO-ATX ) and its up to the user for determining what standoff positions are needed (they put them all in as most motherboards are ATX and Micro-ATX is a less common standard as it tends to be used for HTPC's (Home Theatre Personal Computer's) and all you are meant to do it reference the holes needed and see if they line up and remove the ones that are not needed)
    its not a oversight its just not that convenient for your Micro-ATX board as its the less common standard of the 2 your case is made for so its not in that configuration as standard its in the more common ATX one!
    I will give you some advice here for what to do in the future!
    1: when you Buy a motherboard and take it out the box place it on a piece of paper and mark the holes it uses to be mounted to a case then punch holes through them! (that way you can use the piece of paper to see if any of the standoffs are out of place that are pre-installed and remove the ones that are out of place)
    2: DO NOT put a computer into a case before you have done a test power up and post check outside the Case on a non conductive surface (Eg on the motherboard Box or a piece of wood) (put the CPU, RAM, Video card in and plug up the PSU to make sure it actually gets to the BIOS and to asking for a OS) as it will save you headaches if something doesn't work as it is not in the case yet all screwed in place)
    3: only once you have determined everything works then put it together into the case and do a quick double check that you did not miss any standoffs before you start securing things down!

  • FM2-A75MA-E35/A10-6800K/Radeon HD8670D - cant load graphics driver

    I'm building a new HTPC machine (specs below). OS installed fine. Boots with generic Microsoft drivers. Tried to install chipset drivers that came with mobo. The AMD catalyst control center tries to install the graphics driver (13.350.1005.0000 Beta). The screen flickers off once, then back on, then off again never to return. I'm seeing talk about flashing the BIOS with a cheap trinity core then flashing with my Richland core.  I need expert advice on how to fix this.  Thank You

    i had the same problem in last week, but i didnt buy a new processor, my bios just dont let me do anything so, i put a booteable usb of windows 7 and i booting the usb from bios and ignore the message to actualize to richland. Then i could install windows 7 ultimate 64bits and download the new BIOS driver. And that as you make so easy you just need to copy the ".exe" driver bios and put in a usb free. Start program, upgrade bios, reboot, and finish! you have richland v2.2 or something and you can run APU A10 6800k with no problems =)

  • How to actually build a great linux machine? Poor graphics performance

    I can't believe I am asking this question myself. I've been using linux since 1996, SuSE version 4.1...And yet I am still not able to put together a well performing machine.
    I bought a simple box a few months ago. I am a software developer. I don't need high end graphics nor RAID nor stuff like that. My main goal is to have a fast responsive machine. I installed arch linux on it, and i3 as desktop environment - really it should be quite fast.
    And yet...the machine responsiveness is very low, especially graphics lag A LOT. I know I didn't opt for a high end graphics engine - but shouldn't such a modern machine be enough for lag-free youtube and other video watching? Lag-free firefox browsing?
    Maybe I just misconfigured my machine, and that's what my question is about. Some hardware info follows below. As you can see, I have a AMD E-350 processor with 8GB-RAM - I should think this would be quite enough for a standard linux installation...
    What I also did is, as the MoBo comes with a GPU/processor bundle, I thought that maybe upgrading just the graphics card may have some impact - nope. I bought a AMD HD5450 card with 1GB RAM (!!!) - and still I can't enjoy a fluent video on youtube, nor a sufficient experience web browsing...(maybe it's even better to have the original GPU than the added card I bought?). Of course I know that modern browsers are pretty demanding, but I should think such a machine should be able to handle it?
    I read the posts on the arch linux forum about optimizing video, and AMD cards are not very well reviewed really...
    There are infinite sites about how to choose your distro, there are hardware compatibility lists - but are there any tutorials or guides which actually help setting up a fast and responsive machine?
    * Is my machine maybe badly configured?
    * Does it just have a bad hardware set up? Should I maybe replace one or the other piece to cheaply get satisfactory performance?
    * Am I just asking too much from my cheap hardware?
    I am considering replacing the whole MoBo (I know it was cheap and I shouldn't expect too much from it, but I thought I should be able to tweak it...)

    If I am not mistaken, the E-350 is equivalent to the Intel Atom D525. I have the D525 and use it in my media center. It performs very well at one task at a time, but dies a horrible death under multi tasking situations like a desktop. I blame browsers. I have a top-end laptop with the second fastest mobile i7 I could buy (in Dec 2014), a Geforce GTX 970m, that shares 6GiB VRAM with the intel 3D chip, and on top of all that 32GiB quality RAM with reasonable latencies. I'd really like to brag, because the thing was insanely expensive, but there are no grounds for bragging. When I open a browser, I still feel like it's 2004, everything is sluggish and slow and websites become more full of crap every day, everything is big and blaoted. The desktop, no matter which one, does not feel the least bit snappier than it used to ten years ago, although the processing power has multiplied. Desktops now have more crappy features, more "connectivity", more need to do everything. The immense availability of fast hardware and fast networks in metropolis of metropolis centered countries creates the illusion of an abundance of everything. And now I'm sitting here and all I want is a low power low cost machine to do every day tasks. While the industry is going on and on about the internet of things, I still wait for the day the internet of people happens.
    It's not you. It's like interface designers are trying to mock us. Instead of snappy technology on snappy hardware with snappy code and a snappy workflow, we get "our interface is based on common technologies like HTML and CSS" in the ads for a static local operating system. Nothing ever works. We just had arrived at the following points in tech development:
    - Gnome probably had every possible feature on the planet, that made a desktop useful, there were plugins for everything, a setting, a switch.
    - Web sites on big screens finally became versatile, feature rich and less static.
    - Desktops generally performed very well. Click-Action without a delay.
    Then the following happened:
    - Gnome 3, new desktop concept, rewrite, all the plugins are gone, I have to re-learn everything from the scratch and, since it was new, I have to re-arrange my workflow.
    - Now we are supposed to look at the internet through a <5" screen. If feels like 2001 again, browsers suck, where are my addons, my plugins, my customization?
    - Desktops use simple languages, that swallow performance like a maniac.
    Of course you cannot really buy classic stuff the way it was, because the consumer marked is trend based, not centered around ergonomics. Another five years from now on:
    - Gnome 3 has all the good features and works well for everybody, because there are plugins, custom interfaces and whatnot. But it has to be replaced by Gnome 4, because it does not work well with tactile feedback and bowel movement based controls. Adapting the old system is not possible, let's do it again.
    - Mobile browsers are finally comfortable, but we are not supposed to look at the internet at all anymore, information has been simplified to the point, where it is sufficient to put small plugs into our orifices to be informed about everything important by short bursts of vibration and temperature change.
    - Desktops had a chance to catch up with the inefficiency of a "if it's not interpreted or byte code, then I don't want it" mentality, but now everything has to be in 3D, projected on thin air with a multi trillion cubic voxel resolution. And everything is slow again.

  • Any one else having poor graphics performance in Lion?

    I have a three year old MacMini (nVidia chipset and 4GB RAM) driving a Samsung TV/monitor at 1080p.  On 10.6.8 everything was beautiful, but on Lion the graphics is noticeably choppy. Even the mosaic screensaver runs poorly.  Apple, I was your greatest fan, but this could be your Vista moment.  Lets have a driver update asap please.

    I reverted to Snow Leopard or I use Windows 7 which is not as pretty but it works much better.
    Lion is dreadful, simply horrible to create content. And what I have heard of the next version, well count me out, I'd rather have computer I can upgrade unlike the move towards soldered RAM, SSD and gluing batteries so that repairs that may have taken hours might now take weeks...BUT Lion is the worst. It's like MS took over Apple and made it a mess...I do not want iOS on my Mac Pro! And it's simply the worst OS ever. Snow Leopard is amazing and it works: why did they want to mess with it? They keep their hardware designs for years why mess with OSX it worked but now we have Facebook everywhere..why?

  • Poor graphics performance on Macbook Pro with windows 7 bootcamp

    I have a 13" Non-Retina Machbook Pro with Intel HD 4000 Graphics, purchased around 2 years ago. I installed Bootcamp for certain assignments for school, running Windows 7, and started playing videogames on it. I played Dark Souls and Chivalry, mainly, and both ran reliably at a pretty mediocre framerate but with decent graphics settings. I picked up Dark Souls 2 in the summer, and was able to run it and medium-high graphics with decent framerate. several months later, after not having played on Windows for a while, I came back to Dark Souls 2, but found that the game would run with this strange, pulse-y lag, like everything would animate quickly for a moment before pausing and continue again. the framerate itself was normal, it would just stutter constantly. (about one pause per second) and it wasn't a complete freeze, either. The game would move very slowly for a moment instead of freezing.
    Anyway I was surprised and decided to test it with Chivalry. Same Problem. Kingdoms of Amalur, same problem. All of these were windows only so I decided to compare something that could run on both platforms. I tested it with league of legends - Mac side: Medium-high graphics with 60 fps. Windows side: Low graphics with pulsing lag and 30fps.
    I read through some articles and found something about SMC reset. Tried that. No effect.
    Then I updated my drivers. No effect.
    Any idea what's wrong with my windows-side graphics?

    I have Windows 7 Pro Boot Camped on my Mac Mini (late 2012) HD 4000 as well. Nvidia driver. On a graphics intense game of mine I have learned to just get by. Unfortunately using Nvidia or other graphics driver updates through Windows Update is the best you can do. I would not attempt or recommend a newer graphics driver from the manufacture website. You may end up rendering your Windows unusable. Windows 7 has great benefits on a Mac, but, limited user options. One of my graphics intense programs had to be found and purchased from the App Store. Windows version just would not run correctly. If you are stuck with the RAM that came with your MBP, you may want to upgrade to 8 or the full 16 GB of RAM which may help. Otherwise I find Windows to run quite well. I use it for DVD playback and Media Center which runs great. I have 4 GB of RAM. Cheers!

  • Poor graphic performance?

    I have MBP 13", 2011 version, core i5 and HD 3000 graphics. I play openGL based game via boot camp on windows 7 64 bit, Counter-Strike 1.6 and I am not able to reach stable 100fps in this 11 or 12 years old game. When I see 4+ players on screen my fps is between 60-90 fps. When HE grenade eplodes in front of me it drops down to 30 fps . I already tried everything, like changing settings ingame, in intel control panel in windows and i've downloaded the newest drivers. Nothing helped. Do you guys have some advice for me? I'm really mad, it's the only game i want to play and i believed this computer can handle it with no problem on stable 100 fps.

    It is a driver problem.  More about the problem: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/T550-CPU-Throttle-on-Windows-8-1/td-p/2087644

  • Fm2-a75ma-e35 Onboard and External Graphics

    I'm having issues using both my onboard graphics and my Nvidia Geforce GTX 650 TI graphics card. I have three monitors, 2 connected to the graphics card and one connected to the mainboard. When the graphics card is plugged in, it disables the onboard graphics and the BIOS won't let me enable both of them. Is there a way to enable both of them?

    i think with your hardware combination its not possible at all because it would require enabling AMD Dual Graphics but as you have a Nvidia Card it will be disabled and will not be allowed to engage as you would have 2 competing control sets that would cause some severe issues!
    (for dual Graphics its usually only a single vendor allowed)
    Intel HD series IGPUon there CPU's paired with a Nvidia Card (As Nvidia is owned by intel) <--- you may be able to use a AMD card with that type of setup as its a little less restrictive and it may engage....

    They will always be dropping in price and there will always be something faster coming out next month, but it's not a bad idea to wait for black friday or cyber monday. My normal advice is buy as much card as you can afford today and be happy. 
    $200 range, I'd look at this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127761
    It's a great card, I'm running a pair of last year's models at 5760x1080, medium to high on most games with some eye candy turned on. A single card should perform great at your resolution.

  • MSI FM2-A85XMA-E35 M-Connector?

    Hello,
    I just bought another MSI board for my second build.  I thought this board was supposed to come with the M-Connector for the front panel power buttons, etc,etc.  I called MSI and they said this model # did not; even though  the manual states to use it to connect the front panel wires to the M-connector and then connect to the board.  Is this going to be a royal pain in the arse without the adapter? The other MSI board I bought had the adapter and it made the process somewhat easier. Can these be purchased anywhere?  Any help would be appreciated,
    Thanks...

    Thanks for the reply!  I looked all over the net for them and could not find them for sale.  I called MSI CS and they are going to send me the part.  It's like 5.00 bucks.  I have to say I am impressed with MSI's Customer Service.  I had a good experience with the other MSI board I used for my 1st build.  I was considering buying an ASRock board because it came with 8 free GB's of ram, but the non-existent Customer Service reviews of ASRock scared me away.

    Clear cmos (>>Clear CMOS Guide<<) and try both sticks indivdually. If no help try a better psu as your one is quite crappy. Also try a different SATA cable for the HDD.
