so i have had this card in my rig since late december, and i always thought that i wasn't getting the right performance for the card.

after almost a month of wondering, i decided to get Unigine Heaven 4.0 benchmark... i ran it and got a score of 582 and an average 21FPS, the highest FPS was 31

What is up with this card? im almost certain it should be performing better

What kind of FPS do you get in games? (I always prefer real-world benchmarks than synthesised benches) If you're unsure, go and check out MSI Afterburner or EVGA Precision, both will show you FPS in-game.

well, so far the games i have been playing are:
Planetside2 - 56FPS ( can go down to around 35 when in a crowded area)
SleepingDogs - 46FPS (never really drops)
GothamCityImpostors - 60FPS (used to run at around 25, until i OC'ed my CPU up to 3.75GHz)
Sims3 - Never really checked but it seems a bit laggy when moving the camera.
CounterStrikeGO -90FPS (never been below 60)
SaintsRowIV - 40FPS (dropped alot, felt horrible to play)
Warframe - 150FPS
JustCause2 - 62FPS (when on the MP mod it sometimes drops to around 40)

On a side note, you overclocked your 8320 to 3.75 GHz, but its built in(stock) Turbo core makes it go to 4 Ghz under stressful situations. And no overclock should make a game go from 25FPS to 60 FPS (as you said in Gotham City Imposters).

Actually, now that i think about it.. i also Unparked my CPU.. don't know what the hell that does but i watched a Youtube video on it and i just did it... that might have fixxed the FPS with Gotham City Impostors, it didnt really effect any other games.
