    1920x1080 res.

    Basically never have stable 60 fps. Been noticing this in a lot of games. When there's too much going on around me. Too much can be 4 more players and the fps is struggling. Am I too optimistic of what I got in this comp when I play at medium/high settings and 1920x1080 and hoping for 60 fps? It just feels a lot weaker than it should..

    Also had rather bad results in 3dmarkvantage. How high should I have with this setup?

    Haven't overclocked the card. And the gpu is on turbo mode.
