Tried 304.48 (fixed all the stuttering on most games) but on World Of Warcraft getting 40 FPS in a town and my GPU is at 30 percent and not running at it's highest clocks on the core 1032 instead of 1215 so frustrating.

Tried 301.42 WHQL they just brung the stuttering back on games such as Battlefield and WoW even at 60 FPS.

Any suggestions why when my FPS drops to 40 in WOW why won't it power the card up to say 70 percent GPU usage to get it to 60 FPS?
 
You are cpu limited in that game you could add another card in your system and you will still get the same FPS. Most MMORPG are CPU limited.
 
I seriously hate playing games at below 60 FPS that's why I paid the money I did for my pc, so Dazzerd even if I had two Intel xeon's I'd have no FPS difference? surely my 3570k isn't bottlenecking :(
 
wow uses like 1 core on the cpu and will use it 100%. There is no known processor to run wow at 60fps in towns on max settings at all times guaranteed.
 
When you say stuttering do you mean graphics randomly flashing as I'm getting that on a few games at the moment :(

WoW dose use more than one core just dosent use them very well, 1 core is 100% 2 cores is roughly 60/80% and 4 cores is normaly around 20/30%.

You could try the beta version of the 64bit client aswell didn't make any differance to my FPS but the game feels smoother when useing it.

On a 560ti using 301.42 I'm getting temps of 75c and the card is showing 45% load.

It doesn't seem to be struggling, in fact coping very well but can't help think something is wrong, either temp sensor or gpu load. The readings are from msi afterburner.

Might try the latest, but really have felt the last few releases of drivers really do nothing for 5xx cards and are aimed at tweaking the 6 series.
 
Noticed i was getting 80-100+ fps on wow, soon as i updated drivers i'm on 40... but i don't ever play it anymore so i couldn't care less XD just as an anecdotal +1 to wow being wierd.
