Just Cause 2. (Demo)
CPU; Phenom II x6 @ 4.1Ghz
Gigabyte 7870 Windforce 3x (Catalyst 12.8)
In-game benchmark used + FRAPS
1000 / 1200: Min 68 / Max 106 / Avg 86.074
1100 / 1200: Min 72 / Max 110 / Avg 89.772
1200 / 1500: Min 82 / Max 130 / Avg 103.188
Nice looking game, does it have Physx? looks like it might have Physx...
Also is it just one on those where you look at your guy? or can it be set to first person?
I hate that where you are behind your guy.

Lol higher averages than both me and Pgi using 1200/1600 with 7970s.
What benchmark were you using? (We used concrete jungle one)
Caporegime
Yeah, i noticed that.
It didn't say, it just said benchmark, no options to change it.... some red desert with a small town flyover...

Gregsters 680's were being bottlenecked by his 2500, so could possibly be the same case here.

Oh...Swear you get to choose? Just as you click on the benchmark there's 3 options.

Needs more threads?

Possible, best off speaking too gregster or others with dual high end cards, im only running a single at present.
What mobo board you running?

This is all i get.
If i click on that it starts the benchmark.
(Demo v 1.0.0.1)
OH! It's the demo?
Might make more sense me and Pgi redo using the desert benchmark instead.
Caporegime
Yeah, please do if you don't mind. if others want to contribute to it they can then also use the Demo

Whats your gpu usage when running bf3?
Can you clock your 2500 higher??
Do a quick bench and check gpu usage, then try and up your clocks on cpu, run same bench and check gpu usage again.

Finally got fraps sorted out, have redone BF3 and Batman Arkham City, BF3 using the ultra preset with everything on max, followed the video posted in this thread.
Arkham city using the ingame benchmark, every setting on max, 8xmsaa ,mvss+hbao , extreme settings. Both games played @ 1980x1080 [email protected] ,8 gig ddr3 and 7850 @ 860/1200 and 1125/1400

Some good benches in here. Nice one guys and good for comparisons.
As for the I5 being a bottleneck, I found that going from an I5 at 4.6 to a 3930K @ 4.6 has put an end to my bottleneck running SLI 680s. Maybe it is more threads or maybe it is just a better processor that is needed. I wish I had done some extensive testing to find out but I am lazy and just swapped everything out and checked to see if I had a bottleneck. I couldn't tell you if my fps had improved in games but I will be running tests and comparing them to my old 5760*1080 scores with my new setup. I expect a fair few more fps if I am honest.

Yep, my CPU usage is maxed out pretty much all the timeBottleneck
Thanks everyone, I WILL update today (got side-tracked by a beer last night).
The mins on Arkham City I wouldn't worry about, its a bug in the benchmark, second scene will always stutter for the first second giving the low minimums. Also remember DX11 was broken on this game for a long long time, so much so I played through it in DX10.

Sell the 2500K, grab a 26/700K, total cost of upgrade around £50, worth it? yep
