Hey Techsavy people, I'm in desperate need of your help. I was finally thinking I had an amazing set-up to play games on Ultra with 60FPS & above but no luck...I'm getting no where near reported FPS from my GPU.

Ex: 1920x1080
ARMA III is reported @ 66FPS Ultra and I get 25-30 AA*AF off.
Battlefield 4 is reported @ 71FPS Ultra AA4x*AF16x and I get 40-50 AA*AF off

Maybe I have some weird setting turned on or off somewhere? I'd really really appreciate it if someone could help me find the answer...so much so that I'll buy you a game of your choosing from Steam. If multiple people have the same answer I can't buy you all games:( I'll be going down the list in order.
