So lets talk about the nvidia logo on the benchmark

I got a 12677 on 1080p, with DX 11.

i7-3770k and GTX 680 SLI

Foolishness is comparing the 2.0 Dx9 Benchmark score and the 3.0 Dx11 Benchmark score and thinking they are even comparable to begin with. You're entire point is misguided and fallacious on a few levels.

7027 is a score for a GTX 760, instead 8000 for GTX 770. You can easily go over 13k with a TITAN or 980ti, but you need to upgrade your CPU (you want an intel i5 or i7 overclocked).

Yup for sure, the CPU is a huge bottle neck. I built this rig on a budget, reused a lot of old hardware and went with the cheap AMD route (mobo, cpu, and ram). I actually had a fairly dated radeon 6850HD but I got lucky and won the TITAN BLACK from the fanfest in vegas, I never would have considered this card at all haha.

Oh, I thought you went for the TITAN by yourself: I understand then. But it's a pity you can really improve your performance with an intel CPU, you can consider to buy it in the next future when Skylake processors come. :)

Oh boo hoo @OP, your card doesn't have as big a number as an Nvida on a benchmark that favors Nvidia. who the hell cares, it's a damn number that don't mean any passed the 6k mark.
It's over run, your game will run fine and that's all that matters. I'm using an A10 with a HD5700 card and getting 6.2k and i'm ok with that. SE has favored Nvidia for years due to their partnership. this is nothing new.
Your game with run fine and you spent less money to do it.
