Bottleneck issue in bf3

I am getting around 50-80 fps with everything on high aa off and shaders on hbao...This seems low to me...could my cpu be bottlenecking my system?

i5 760@4.2
7970 ocd to 1200
8gb ddr3
250 gb ssd

i dont think your cpu is bottlenecking you. what is your resolution? what is your PSU?

i think getting fps from 50 to 80 in a game like battlefield which is fps eater is good and ur Cpu is not bottlenecking u at all , another thing check ur cpu usage and make a disc clean , gl

Problem found...I'm a dumbass. Never thought to check the cpu...it had reset to its stock clock (2.8) Loaded the profile...back to 4.2 and getting 80-130 on ultra with aa at 2x
