I have no problem playing Shogun2 Total War and Starcraft 2 at 60fps(vsync on) with my FX-8120. I have not had a single problem with any game I have with my FX-8120 and I have seen a nice increase in a lot of my games over my 1090t. There is something very wrong with your rig if you cant play Shogun 2 Total War or Starcraft 2 with good frame rate.
The FX-8120 is very good CPU but if the rest of your rig is not up to par it is not going to help.
