[Question] GTX 970 3DMark benchmark score help
Ah nice, thanks for all the feedback, I was always suspected that my i5 is a bit behind, which puzzled me considering the i5 lines are very, very good for gaming and as far as I can see, it can handle any GPU that is thrown at it up til now, perhaps I will upgrade to an i7 in the near future, again thanks for all the feedback guys!
11000 graphics seems about right for a stock 970. Here is mine at stock (EVGA GTX 970 SC ACX 2.0):

My graphics is slightly higher than yours since the EVGA SC models come with a bit higher of a factory overclock, but you might end up with a better overclock overall than I do by using MSI Afterburner. My physics score is higher because a Xeon E3 is really similar to a locked i7 (there are a few small differences like no integrated graphics, ECC memory support, lower TDP). You can probably really juice your physics score up with an overclock.
I wouldn't upgrade an i5-4690k for a long time. It's a monster gaming CPU and you have a pretty killer system.
