So you going to run a Gtx970 with an I5 3570?

Ever heard of bottleneck?

Great build, would recommend to recheck the board and cpu.

Explain this bottleneck please.

CPU and RAM are holding back the GFX card, it can process more data than it currently will with the CPU and RAM Burgy has installed. I doubt Burgy will even Notice it on current Gen games, but if he's seeking for more performance, he will need to up RAM and CPU.

Ive got both if you want. Give me a buzz. :rollsmile:

Not using it as my board went.

Hows your performance in sli ajbalie ?

Im considering either getting a second card to crossfire or sell up and get a stronger single gpu.

Its cheaper to get a second card and performance is way better than any single gpu can give you ( when crossfire scales well).

But a single gpu gives you stable performance without needing much driver updates or crossfire profiles.

Tough decision ( always wanted to have a crossfire setup)

Every gamer wants to have atleast had 1 crossfire/sli setup :tiptoe:

Oh and guys before upgrading cpus if you have an i5 just hold on to it for now..

windows 10 is coming soon and when it is released it will bring about directx 12 which will eliminate the bottleneck gpus have due to directx 11 waiting on the processor..

It allows the game engine access closer to the die like mantle does so your cpu cannot hold gaming back..

Im waiting in anticipation :rollsmile:
