I'm currently running 2 R9 290x and a 2500K at 4.4ghz. I like to run with a couple of monitoring things on like CPU Usage, GPU temp and Team Speak. Even with these off I can still hit 100% usage on one or all of my cores during BF4! Is this a cpu and crossfire issue or a game issue?
Its driving me nuts, i'm tired of my game locking up so im prepared to upgrade my cpu. What do you think?
 
Solution
it should be fine. there really isnt anything to upgrade to. a 2500k is as strong as a 4670k. you could turn the clockspeed up a bit. a sandybridge will easily clock higher than 4.4ghz
