Need some help with my system

McSoup

I recently upgraded my PC this Christmas like I am sure a lot of you brother and sisters did. I decided to benchmark my system with 3D Mark like I normally do and I was a little disappointed with the results. http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/5318716 I believe there is some bottle necking going on in my system with my CPU but I do not truly know. If anyone can help me figure out what is holding back my new PC I would be very grateful. Happy New Year!!! Also I was considering a new power supply for my system! Any advise would be fantastic!

Nope, not bottlenecking.

This is not a bottleneck for sure!

Even 4560K can handle 980 flawlessly.

No bottlenecking.

Having said that, testing for a bottleneck via a synthetic benchmark isn't a good means of finding one.

Playing games and comparing to benchmarks with identical hardware configurations (excluding vendors) is the best way of determining if a bottleneck is existent.
