I7 3770K Bottlenecking?
Hey guys hope all is well and would like to ask for some input on a problem I'm facing :|.
I've recently built a rig for somebody and he is having issues (performance wise) in bf3, mohw ect
He is currently using Windows 8, he had the same issue on Windows 7, spent loads of money trying to eliminate this issue, including spending another £350 on a 120hz monitor, also compared with Hyperthreading on and off, personally I can't see it being a i7.
His gpu usage does not stay above 75% usage on both cards, even tried overclocking his I7 to 4.8GHZ, so do you think the beast of a i7 he has can really bottleneck is gpu cards, specs are below:
i7 3770k @ 4.8 ghz
Asrock z77 Extreme6 Motherboard
8gb Corsair Vengeance @ 1600mhz
2 AMD 7950's in crossfire
Antec watercooler
Corsair TX850w
OCZ SSD 128gb (windows 8 64x)
Western Digital 2tb green drive storage.
5 120mm case fans.
