Hi,

I'm currently gaming on an i7-4820k @4.5 GHz, Asus Rampage IV Extreme, Avexir 16gb DDR3 1600 MHz, 2 x R9 290 and an 850 Evo SSD and a couple of WD Blacks for storing gamings.

With the latest games I'm starting to struggle playing them set to high graphics at 1980x1080. Just wanted to double check before i go i buy something. What would be the most beneficial to improve gaming? I am things my GPUs could do with being replaced.

I'm only expecting enough fps for no stuttering so somewhere around 60fps. I have afterburner running on my pc and can see that they both running. The worst performance i get is on Witcher 3, The Division and Ghost Recon (which is a mess for most people from the looks of it). Games just feel a bit jumpy at times. Luckily a play a lot of FM. May try and do what Brizzles said and save my pennies and upgrade to if 1080 or something along those lines when i can afford to.

That was my 295x2 issues just didnt feel right despite the fps being fine. Only silky smooth game ive played on the 295x2 was gears of war and bf1. The 980ti feels better but not really a upgrade. Will move to 1080 or ti when funds allow.

In BF1 i have things on the screen just disappear in the menus.

20-37 fps in Witcher 3, 1080p, Ultra

From looking at benchmarks on their other games. I think it may be a time to do a clean install on my pc.
