MS-7591 Bottle-necking GPU?

I have this motherboard, and am curious if it is Bottle-necking my msi gtx 780? Here's a link to the board specs, http://www.ascendtech.us/dell-4vwf2-alienware-aurora-alx-board_i_mbd4vwf2ms7591m.aspx

I'm not 100% but i seriously doubt it. Highest end motherboards rarely offer any performance boost over the lowest, a £30 motherboard will yield no better stock performance than a £200 one. The board looks pretty high end so yeh.

Interesting. But there got to be something that's getting slowed down because a gtx 780 should be able to handle Final Fantasy XIV with little to no frame rate issues on maximum specs.

how much ram do you have? and try updating to latest drivers. i have no experience with newer FF games, teh game might just be poorly optimised.
