Not really sure about this but in BF3 with vsync GPU 1 & 2 utilization are under 50% and higher CPU usage which i thought means a bottleneck caused by the CPU.

But with vsnyc off i get 99% on both GPU with high CPU and 130 fps average. I have never had a problem playing BF3 always been smooth.

Just dont know how a bottleneck works as you will all say i have one because i have a i7 920 @4.4Ghz :eek:

VSYNC ON


VSYNC OFF


I think i might be missing something obvious here :D
