Hi all
I got a new 770 recently and it doesnt seem to be performing as well as it could be. I was looking at some benchmarks online for systems VERY similar to mine and they are consistantly getting 20-40FPS (sometime 100 in older games) more than me. I OC'd my card and this helped a bit but its still not doing that great. I looked at my power consumption on my card and even though I have it set to draw 110% total power the max it is drawing is 80%. My PSU is a corsair 650w PSU... could this be the problem. I know 650 is the minimum reccommended for this card so I would thing id be fine but im just not getting the numbers that I should be, Furthermore, my temps are all fairly low, rarely reaching 60c on full load.
I have my CPU OC'd to 4.2ghz and I have 6 fans in my case (2/200mm fans and 4/140mm)
Could this be drawing too much power overall and not allowing my GPU to run at its full potential?


Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!



Mobo- MSI Z77A-G45
CPU- i5 3570K
Storage- Western Digital 500GB HD
PSU- Antec 650 watt PSU
Memory- 8GB corsair DDR3 1600mhz
Also have a samsung SSD

THIS IS MOST OF MY BUILD/ Copy and pasted from an old thread of mine

What else is drawing on your system. What cpu do you got and is it OC'd? how many peripheral things you got like extra fans, hdd, ssd, optical drives, etc. How old is the psu?
