So I have been building my computer for a bit and finally got it to a place where I felt I could run everything great. Not the case.
I am currently running in my rig-
GTX 1070
AMD FX-8350 cpu
8 gb ram
850w psu
and I cannot recall the mother board..
I get somewhat poor performance for the money I have spent... Anyone have recommendations based on what I have given you? Happy to answer any questions if you ask them, I just want an awesome gaming computer that I built instead of a prebuilt, but I feel like I am missing something!

Please figure out the motherboard you're using. From what i can tell already, an 850w PSU is overkill for your rig.
Also, please specify each part, not just a few.

Should have got a good i5 cpu. can't really beat intel in my eyes. Also 8gb ram probably won't last you more than a couple years. More and mroe games are requiring 8gb as minimum. Also, poor performance how? Is it bad fps? stuttering? what games, what settings, what resoultion.

I am having bad frame rate mainly, game like ARMA 3 and gta, anything really thats current on the higher graphics settings. I feel like my rig is pretty current on good parts besides the ram.

Thank you for that tidbit! I got speccy, and I am running a M5A97 R2.0 Asus mother board, it is probably the oldest part in my rig.

The only thing might be the cpu but everything seems fine to me.

Is there a specific reason the CPU is no good?..
