Hi all! I am new here and built a gaming/performamce computer. My specs are as follows: i5-4430, 32gb 1600ghz g.skill ram, 120gb ssd, 1tb black hdd, 3tb seagate, 1000w modular bronze certified psu, and a zotac gtx 770 4gb ocd version...when I first go lt it running I was getting at 1080p 170+ FPS on max settings on the card drivers and in League of Legends...the next time I ran LoL I am now getting between 70-120....is it cause my cpu or gpu is bottlenecking with the i5-4430? Should I get a 4670k or could it be the new nvidia drivers? Should I try uninstalling the drivers and see? Anything will help as I am so frustrated about this issue! Thanks

Nope your Cpu shouldn't bottleneck your gpu and all the pc, i think it is the drivers. Try to upgrade to newest. :)

Thanks for the reply! I will go to nvidia s site and try that if not, which driver should I roll back to? I heard some people state that 310 or 313 fixed their issue

i would actualy recommend roll back to 310.90 or 314.22 if newest drivers are worse at performance

Okay, thanks so much! Would it be worth it to shell out another $81 after taxes to upgrade to the 4670k or just keep my current set up? It is for gaming and photoshop and indesign as my gfs in grpahic design.

I would keep this CPU, but if you have extra money then sure why not (better for gaming, because of better OC possibility )
