Well I feel that this card isn't running 100% correctly. It can't take some games at high settings and not even QuantumBreak at low settings. Don't know if that's wrong or not.

its probably because of the dual gpu solution of the 690 not because your bottlenecked extremly. some games just arent optimized. and even if it gets bottlenecked you can still sell your cpu and get a higher clocked one

Okay, but when should the next gen come out? I don't want to wait a whole year and the 980ti would work just as good for a couple of years.
