So i though this gpu will destroy every game at ultra 1440x900 but no.I don't get enjoyable frames at all 50-60 on 1440x900 high-ultra aa med like smaa or msaa 4x. But this s**** gpu go beyond border i started a small fire in far cry 3 on a grass with one two trees and the fps from 72 diped to 50 like whyyyyyy? What freaking gpu is needed for games from 2012-2014 at ultra 1440x900??? Though this will do the work but..Dissapointed again,what should i get titan z? Or sli this crap....

If you haven't updated your drivers yet then you could try that. The only thing I can think of is that your CPU might be bottlenecking your GPU. I have a FX-8320 CPU and a EVGA GTX 770 4GB GPU and I know for fact that my CPU bottlenecks my GPU. When I play games on ultra with my CPU at it's standard speed of 3.5 GHz I usually lose anywhere between 5-20 fps at times compared to when I have my CPU overclocked to 4.25 GHz. The GTX 770 is a high-end GPU and is more than capable of running Far Cry 3 on ultra at 1080p with MSAAx8 with 30+ fps (probably higher on average). That being said, you need to accompany the 770 with a high-end CPU. You should probably get an i5-4670k or better.

I play Far Cry 3 as well with a 770 and get 50+ fps on...

It really varies from game to game. Smoke is a b**** in some games.

I play Far Cry 3 as well with a 770 and get 50+ fps on ultra, 1080p, and on MSAAx4 so it's probably not your graphics card giving you trouble. You may want to look into overclocking your CPU or buying a new one if updating your drivers doesn't work.

Here's a comparison between your CPU and a somewhat higher-end CPU: http://cpuboss.com/cpus/Intel-Core-i5-4670K-vs-Intel-Core-i5-3350P

I really thinks it's your CPU keeping your fps down and not your 770.

Yeah i think you're right the cpu is always at 100% all 4 cores even on games such as lol and payday 2 and the gpu is 46-70(sometimes at 99 but only in bf 4)

Yeah, what you're seeing is bottlenecking but that can be fixed relatively easily. A lot of times you could just overclock your CPU but I don't think you can overclock your CPU since it's not an unlocked processor. I would suggest at least buying the i5-4670k that way you won't bottleneck your 770 anymore and it's overclockable. YOu can aquire it for about $225 brand new or you can pay a little less and get it used for $175.

Here's a link to it if you're interested: http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00CO8TBOW/ref=sr_1_1_olp?ie=UTF8&qid=1406553685&sr=8-1&keywords=i5-4670k&condition=new

If you have some extra money to spend on a CPU or if you're willing to save up and wait you could go for an even better CPU like the i7-4770k. It's totally your call though. Here's a comparison between the i5 and the i7.
