was just wondering 2 things..

im a solid gamer and im just wondering should i have hyper threading turned on or off as some pople say its good off and some say on?

and second is that power supply good enuff for my build
btw i never want to overclock just leave all as stock
 
Yea sure i guess ill leave it on. Its my 1st i7 with hyper threading.
Ive always had i5 cpus so im just wondering because some people say its better turning it off.
Im glad the psu is enuff was stressing abit about it.
Ive always thought my old i5 760 wasnt enuff to cope with my gtx 680
 
O/T - sorry

Did your upgrade to i7 3770K help with your GPU usagea bit? I noticed you were always skeptical but you seem to have converted?

:D

Yes, it fixed my GPU usage totally:)

Wasn't so sure but I thought I got to try it and only way was to upgrade, I now get near max usage on both most times in game.
