Hi,
I've been watching my gpu usage via afterburner during games, and whenever I'm playing a level with more AI the fps will dip, but so will the gpu usage. This made me concerned that I had a cpu bottleneck. I then went into bios and lowered the cpu's clock speed from 4.2 to 3.3 ghz and sure enough the AI sections were even worse. I'm running an i5 2500k. I purchased it in order to get RID of my CPU limiting factor. My cards are 2 Hd 6870s. Does anyone know why this is happening?
