780 x 2 possible with this PC?

It is not heresay as it is on my own PC.:D

I have already demonstrated that Sleeping Dogs can bottleneck a 6 core intel CPU and a 4 core one even more. I think it is about time you provided something of substance rather than being negative in the face of what most people are telling you.

You have demonstrated one game out of many you tested provides a minimal bottleneck at 144fps what I am asking evidence for and a definition of is how this effects quality and makes it "not look as good" as I do not know what you mean by this and that is what I asked.
I am also struggling to understand why u care about about a bottleneck at 144fps when you said yourself you run a 60hz monitor

@3.8 the bottleneck was @132fps a difference of 20fps and if I was running the CPU as a quad it would have been even more.

As to quality you need to read a few articles about frame pacing as it is all over the place when a CPU is bottlenecked.

Another example of a game bottlenecking GPUs is Hitman which is even worse than Sleeping Dogs.

Then use vsync...
CPU usage will be a lot lower and won't be bottlenecking the cards the fps cap will.
 
Vsync is perfect if ur mins are above 60 which yours are and at 60 fps there is no bottleneck so there won't be erratic behaviour. I understand there would be when CPU is 100% but that's at twice the frame rate so twice the CPU load.

Games seem to run nicer without Vsync for me and some other people take that view too.

Why don't you have a go at the Hitman bench and also have a look at how even very powerful CPUs don't cope with it that well.

I would if i had the game but from my experience ive found really only source games dont work with vsync, every other game i own seems to work fine with vsync as long as min fps is above my refresh rate and if it isnt i use radeon pro adaptive vsync which sorts the issue out.
I am very sensitive to frame rate, input lag and frame pacing usually as i have come back from 120hz to 72hz and so would notice when there is an issue.

That is an example of a bottlenecked CPU and its effects.

Surprised at the difference between the 2600k and 4770k.

Yep V-Sync is awful at 60fps. At 120 it's much better but still not ideal.
