bottleneck performance?

yes i have geforce experience, i dont use it though
outside dense area is capped at 60, not sure why now even if i remove the frame rate limit it still stays 60, it was ok some time ago, could get 100 plus depending on location.

Sounds like you have V-Sync forced on, possibly in Nvidia control panel. With a 60hz monitor it won't go above 60. If you drop below it will probably cap at 30, if you drop below 30 it will cap at 20.

hahaha i knew its the i7! see both luna and ultiaoe both use 4790k. but as someone said i'd be nuts to buy an i7 just for mor dhona
as far as i know ff doesnt utilize hyperthread? if so a 51% utilization i7 in task manager means the 4 main thread are very well utilized (90-100%) while the other 4 are idle. it is because task manager totals all cpu % load then divide with the number of all threads then it just say 51%. this is true with my brother pc with amd 8350 8 cores, ff is not using all 8 cores and task manager shows less than 50% cpu load while some cores are at 100%.
thank you all for the time and trouble posting here, i really appreciate it!

It's because the current DX9. DX10.x and DX11.x is not utilizing the CPU in balance, most games you see one core runs at 99% and other cores are just idle to nothing.

Hyperthreading basically 1 core with 2 threads. So it still use under 1 core powering 2 threads.

lol - Hopefully it hasn't just been V-Sync. That's why one of the first questions I asked was if it changes between, Full/Windowed as I don't think V-Sync works in Windowed Mode.




Here's what I meant about the Ram slots. Although it's motherboard specific sometimes, for the most part this is how it works.

So if the Ram sticks are installed side-by-side which looks a lot nicer, they will each run in Single Channel, limiting the system Bandwidth.
