It actually tells us nothing. Too many questions unanswered.

1-What games you´re trying to play?
2-Update to latest dev build. 5.0 is old as hell at this point.
3-After updating and testing, post screenshots of the settings you were using.
4-Is is still happening after using latest dev?
5-Is your CPU/GPU overheating?
6-Close any processes that you see are using too many resources using the Task Manager.

Considering your AMD CPU is pre-Ryzen I would expect certain games to be out of reach.

You should turn off VSync. It makes most games to run at half speed every time there are frame drops.

Try lowering your IR. For ZTP, you should check if the Hyrule Field patch is still enabled.

Thank you! i enabled the hyrule field patch and everything is working smoothly, and turning off the vsync provided fzero and metal gear a fps boost
