So a week and a half ago i purchased two DirectCU II 780s to enjoy BF4 @ 144fps on my 144Hz screen.

 

Haven't been able to do so, and i'm not sure what the problem is, i don't know if this is an issue with the Nvidia drivers, with the game itself or with my PC setup.

 

You can see my specs in my signature, i'm running a 2500k overclocked to 5GHz, i've also unparked my CPU in windows (i think) and i'm using 1886MHz Corsair Vengeance 8Gb ram on Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit with the latest drivers...

 

I've thoroughly tested BF4 with my current setup and from what i can see, the game only uses around 60-70% of each GPU, sometimes one of them gets to 80% if i'm lucky.

 

No matter how many players or which map/game mode, although i've noticed that Shanghai has some of the worst performance along with Paracel Storm.

 

Basically my average fps is like 100 or something like that, sometimes it drops way too much to 90 or 80, i've tested a single card and it averages 80 fps on Ultra.

 

I'm really pissed off, never spent so much on a pc upgrade, big disappointment.

 

My store also doesn't want to refund me, although it's been less than 15 days since i've purchased it, i'm not satisfied with it.

People have been reporting crappy scaling (around 150%) so i'm not sure if i'm the only one.

That's my Firestrike Extreme score if it matters at all.
