bottleneck performance?

[einzele]

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!

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.

will go check on that later..
