Over the past month I've slowly upgraded my mobo/ram/CPU/gpu
My new rig is this:
-fX-8320 oc'd to 4.4ghz
-gigabyte gtx 760 windforce : oc'd to 1170/7008 (stock 1085/6000). with gpu boost 2.0 it puts it at 1332mhz core / 7008 mem
-8gb corsair vengeance pro series
-gigabyte 990fxa-ud3 r3
-corsair H60 cooler
-150gb hdd (bought years ago on a budget, will upgrade soon)
-antec earthwatts 650
-antec 900 case
---------------------------
I'm just curious if anyone has similar systems and recommend shooting for a higher CPU or Gpu overclock. Dunno how much more performance I can squeeze out vs diminishing returns and such
Right now games run amazing 1080p single monitor
BF3 maxed out HbAo, very high everything - big fights I get 60+ fps never less. Normal running around I see about 70-100 fps
Crysis 3 - all settings very high maxed out I'm getting 35-60 fps. Never below 32. Average seems 40-50s
Metro LL all settings very high (physx on , very high tess, 2x SSAA, etc) I'm getting about 35-50 on average. Mostly I'm at about 45-50 but some fights I drop to 30s.
Without SSAA I get like a nearly constant 50-70 fps with all other settings kept
Planet side 2 is so much better than my 965BE! Can't accurately give fps results. Mostly 40s - 50s in big fights although it's totally random cuz the game blows and is horribly optimized, I mean horribly !
These results I am very , very pleased to see!! I can't wait to play witcher 3! Gorgeous!
Huge upgrade it seems over my pII 965 @ 4ghz and gtx 560ti oc'd
