So I've popped in my new gtx970, not too impressed with the results and am trying to figure out why I still get big FPS drops in 3year old games like Tomb Raider (as with my old gtx670).
i5 2500k @ stock.
p67a-ud4-b3
8gb ddr3
Evga 970 SSC @ 1390mhz
-I have noticed on GPU-Z that my bus interface is x8 and 1.1, pretty annoying as no idea how to change this? Its deffo plugged in the x16 slot, and the only other slot populated is an x1 above it (sound card).
-I have stock clocks on CPU, is overclocking likely to make any difference?? CPU reaches around 70% usage in Tomb Raider.
I have tried and failed MANY times to get my i5 2500k to auto downclock whenever I overclock it does not idle.
