Hi!
A few days ago i bought a nvidia 1070 card, evnthough it's giving me a boost over my old 780-card, i still think is underperforming a bit. So my question is this. I have a i7 2600k processor and 32gb of DDR3 ram. I think the cpu is a gen 2 of the icore processors. Can this be a bottleneck for my gamingexperience? The cpu is never running anywhere near a 100%, and my machine is quite snappy, but with a 1070 card I only get 40-55 fps in watchdogs2 with everything set to ultra quality (1080p), and 50-70 on very high quality. Other games are like this as well. I can see from older post here about amd processors that it might cause some small performance drop, but not sure with this setup. I also only have PCI-E 2.0 on my motherboard, and my card is 3.0.
And yeah, i run my system on an SSD.
Any thoughts?
