When Battlefield 4 came out, I still had a gtx 480. Insanely, I was able to max it out at 1080p and still maintaining 29-45 fps! This was insane, because I temporarily upgraded to a gtx 660 (I borrowed it from a friend) and it got around 5-10 fewer fps! However, it still outperformed the 480 with everything else. I still have the same mother board, same cpu, ram, and everything, Does anyone know how this is possible?

My PC specs:

Motherboard: Asrock Fatal1ty z86
CPU: Intel core i5 3570k ivy bridge
RAM: 8gb corsair vengeance
GPU: ASUS gtx 770 direct CUii
hdd: western digital caviar black 1tb
ssd: samsung 256gb

Oh, no i dont have any issues with the 770, in fact, im just confused on how this can happen, but it may be just drivers, one brand was MSI and the other EVGA superclocked.
