I am getting bad fps in arma 3 and alright fps in bf4. I know arma 3 doesnt run on the best engine. But with bf4 I never max out any of my hard ware which i find weird. Here is a picture of how it usually is.
 
Have you checked your CPU temperatures while gaming? It's possible that it could be throttling.

Also, am I missing something or is your task manager only showing 5 performance graphs for the cores, not 6? Perhaps you'd need to expand the window to see the 6th, it may not be important.

A 6300 will perform decently in BF4. However, most systems will struggle with ARMA 3, it's a very CPU heavy game.

This FPS was with a GTX Titan.

Yes i have the temps dont go above 60c. I understand arma 3 demands alot of cpu power. But shouldnt the cpu be maxing out? not staying at 50-60%
