Tera is almost completely cpu bottlenecked. What resolution do you play at? I suspect overclocking your cpu a little bit will fix most of the problem.

I just bought a R7 260x by Sapphire and I gotta say I was disappointed. I was upgrading from an ATI Radeon HD 5670 which would crash every time I started a video or game. I ended up with a lower-quality card. Now, i did some research and I found this: http://gpuboss.com/gpus/Radeon-R7-260X-vs-Radeon-HD-567...

This comparison between the two cards says that the R7 beats the HD in almost every category except the most important one: 3DMark11 scores. The 5670 had almost twice the score of the R7260x. This is quite frustrating. Does this make sense to anyone? Why does the R7 beat out the 5670 in every other category?...including 3DMark Vantage graphics scores, clock speed, memory size, etc etc!!! All I want is a decent card with good FPS.

the r7-260x is almost 3 times the gpu the 5670 was... not sure why it scored lower in that 3d mark bench... but i know my 7770 would destroy that old 5670, and it's 20% slower then the r7-260x
