    To upgrade CPU or not?

    The FX-8350 came today and I'm not seeing any performance difference in Batman. Getting around 40fps when I look at a large area. If I stand still and look at a corner it goes to 60fps. I have also tried using a single card, but have the same issue.

    To upgrade CPU or not?

    hmmm this is weird. I'm running Batman with a single card (50% usage) and CPU only 50% usage, yet the framerate still drops to the 30-40s. I'm thinking it's definitely a software issue. Does anyone have any idea what I should try?

    To upgrade CPU or not?

    Thanks for the reply guys. Yes, I do have the latest beta drivers installed. I have also tried disabling the other graphics card, but the framerate is still unstable. The FX-8350 is coming tomorrow, so I'm not sure if I should refuse delivery and save the money for games instead.

    To upgrade CPU or not?

    My specs are: ASRock MB-990EX4 2x 7870 Crossfire AMD Phenom II 910 OCd @ 3.5GHz Right now, I am debating on whether or not I should upgrade my CPU. I was looking at the AMD FX-8350, but if my CPU is fine for now, then I don't want to upgrade. During the BF4 beta I was getting terrible...

    Bad Performance In Arkham Origins

    Thanks for the replies, guys. That's really weird. I definitely want to avoid buying a new CPU if I don't have to, but I can't figure out why this isn't working correctly. The reason I thought it was the CPU was because I tried the BF4 beta and wasn't able to get decent FPS due to my CPU being...

    Bad Performance In Arkham Origins

    After monitoring the CPU with every single setting on the lowest (including no directx), I think the problem is that my CPU is just too underpowered. It was reaching 100% usage very quickly. I wish I had just gone with Intel :( Right now I'm looking at this CPU...

    Bad Performance In Arkham Origins

    It's definitely off. Is there any way I can capture a video with a CPU/GPU/FPS usage overlay so that I can show it to you?

    Bad Performance In Arkham Origins

    I've tried no AA at all and still get the frame drops. Do you think it could just be my CPU? I set every single setting at max(except physx) and it performs the same as when I have everything on minimum. The max my CPU goes to is 90% otherwise its usually around 70%. I'm not sure what the...

    Bad Performance In Arkham Origins

    I am getting around 38-48fps average in Arkham Origins. The problem is mostly when I grapple in the city. There is a major frame drop whenever I do that or look at a new area. My guess is that it's having problems writing textures. Another possibility could be my CPU. The usage goes up to 90%...

    Question about motherboard crossfire

    I recently ordered two Sapphire 7870 OC's for crossfire. Everything has a good framerate, but the problem is that even with the latest drivers, I notice micro stuttering. After doing some research it seems like people dont seem to be having the same problem as me. I'm taking a guess and saying...
