Poor performance from a high-end build?

[JamieLee]

Honestly there are a lot of ignorant responses in this thread. I am a competitive computer enthusiast that benchmarks and overclocks

I have an i7 3770k @ 5ghz and 2 GTX 780s in SLI.

I can tell you that without a shadow of a doubt there's something wrong with the optimization in this game. With SLI on, the GPU usage is extremely inconsistent. Frame rates are better in some areas, and just as low in others. I've posted in numerous threads about this.

There's not much drivers can do because the issue is within the game code itself. The benchmark is wonderfully optimized and I score around 23k there. The scaling is amazing and both GPUs have great usage. In the actual game there are only certain circumstances where both cards work properly.

Anyways I'm tired of talking about it. People can think whatever the want, maybe they're happy with their performance, but my avg fps in the benchmark was over 200. I should not be getting 30fps in a city. The fps is 30 with one card, and it's 30 fps with two cards enabled in SLI. My CPU has about 35% load with hyperthreading on, so don't even bother talking about some CPU bottleneck. an i7 3770k @ 5ghz is a golden chip.

Hate to burst your bubble but unless the client is written to take advantage of HT its a feature not used... The rest of your system tho isn't bad... While your getting some performance gain from the overclock... Your still not using your processer to its fullest do to the fact... HT is not used.. Heck most the cores in your cpu wont even be used for the game. Wait for the DX 11 client and hope that it helps.. (provided its not coded crappy.)

What bubble are you bursting? I just said the game wasn't optimized properly.. All you did was basically restate what I already said.

"The rest of your system tho isn't bad" I can't even think of a reasonable response to something like that assuming you're talking about a 5ghz 3770k being bad.
