Please help it's driving me nuts my usage is all over the place!

Benchmarks run fine at 99% gpu usage, Far cry 3 runs pretty much in the 90s

but BF4 doesn't, batman: AO is funny but I have a feeling its forcing the 2nd gpu to be a Phsyx card


anyway basically It's bugging me, testing out other games such as Crysis 3 currently but it's looking like the usage is a bit fluctuating (80-90%) constantly , sometimes I get massive frame drops on it too

Could this be my CPU? would another 8GB of ram help at all?

Really lost on this one :confused:
 
Cores are unparked, latest Nvidia drivers, win7

shame that it could be my CPU, I'll try the gpu's @ stock and see what happens
 
Crysis 3 is better, not perfect still usage fluctuating between 70-90% , maximum frames are great but the mins is down to like 38 . yeah BF4 is not great to test on I know :( still would be nice to find a good balance
 
just what I was afraid of lol dropping the memory clocks on the cards to stock has helped a tad, havn't had a chance to try dropping the cards to stock completely yet
 
dropping the cards to stock did very little for gpu usage, maybe slight improvement.

some games i get usage in the 90% constant (alan wake for example) others are all over the place, so I guess a 3770k is my next piece of kit
