My i5 3570k is running at 95-100% usage in pretty much every recent demanding game, except in BF4 using Mantle. i also get a significant 30-40% FPS boost when using Mantle. I've tried overclocking/disabling turbo boost, and the temperatures hover around 80C at stock clockspeed while gaming, so it can't be throttling right? I also tried a fresh windows 8.1 install, no luck.
