Hey,

- Power Supply: OCZ ZS 750w PSU
- CPU: Intel Core i5 2500K 3.30GHz @ 4.40GHz Sandybridge CPU
- Motherboard: Gigabyte Z77-D3H Intel Z77 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard

Cheers,
so only my GPU is letting me down? I can't quite understand how it's just steady on low?

I can play single player on high/ultra. I have tinkered a bit and can play medium/high online, but still framedrops to around 50's when a lot of stuff is happening or even just looking into the distance off a skyscraper in Shanghai. Everything seems to be configured right.. I play on 1920x1080 60.00Hz
 
Thanks for the help guys.. What kind of performance would you think I'll be pushing out with the 290 & that processor on bf4?
May hold out, depends how itchy my fingers are aha

Edit: Also may get windows 8.1 heard gameplay is a lot smoother?
Edit 2:http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-336-SP or stick to the normal 290?

Intel Core i7-3770K 3.50GHz (Ivybridge) Socket LGA1155 Processor (77W) - Retail

Can anyone recommend a quality motherboard for this spec?^^

Basically wanna be running at ultra 60FPS above always.

I might be a try hard aha, but I can't play the game. It's even when firefight is happening on medium, I can't play with those frame drops.. I see like youtubers anderz, frankieonpc, jackfrags ect all on ultra on parcel conquest large, having no trouble whatsoever.. I might as well treat myself!

I'll just use my old spec for my dads PC, early Xmas present
