Hey guys, so I recently picked up a new gpu, namely the Sapphire R9 290. On BF4 I am averagin 60-70 fps. On some maps it dips to high 50's, but never for too long. I have been able to get to 80 fps but that is only for a couple of seconds. The benchmarks I have seen for this card have led me to believe it should be getting a higher fps, stable 80-90 fps.
My specs are
AMD FX-8350 Oc'd to 4.6 MHz
Sapphire R9 290 Tri-X
8GB Corsair Vengeance 1600
Corsair HX 750w psu Gold rated
1080p monitor
I know my cpu is not bottle-necking as it runs at about 40% usage during the game, and putting it back to stock gives no impact on performance at all, so the OC is stable. GPU usage stays at 100%, sometimes going to 99%, and temps stay below 70 degrees.
Are these normal numbers or is something wrong?
Also on another game, which is quite old now, Killing Floor, which uses the unreal engine, the fps stays at 60fps contantly, it never goes higher or lower, ever. I know V synch is off, so I don't know why I am not getting 100+ fps.
