Hi guys just recently finished my build.
Asus Maximus VI formula
I7 4770k @ 4.6 ghz
Noctua NH-d14
2 Evga 780 gtx ti super clocked edition in Sli
8 gb ddr 2400 gskill trident
128gb samsung 840 pro
2 tb WD black HD.

I play World of Tanks currently and before the gtx ti's i was running a 770 pulling at or above the same fps. I know the game doesnt untilise alll of what I have in my system but shouldnt the fps be higher? Im not really sure about this. My 3d mark basic score is 20544 which im new to that but I think its good. Any help with this would be appreciated thanks guys.

you wont notice enny thing since its the monitor that will bottleneck on the fps out. ( if its 60hz ( 60fps )).
and for the motherboard its the cpu.

8 lanes of 3.0 per gfx will bottleneck the fps? Im running the asus gaming 144hz monitor

I don't think GPUs or CPU are bottlenecking...if as kkn is trying to point out you have framerate limit on this will...well, limit your framerate....but more likely this is something in WoT...or the SLI profile....Might help? https://www.google.es/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&ved=0CCoQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%...

Ok yes i think its the game, so after buying the cards you get the free holiday bundle I downloaded splinter cell it looked pretty good. I have every setting maxed out SLI enabled and im getting 76 fps with 2 780 gtx ti's in sli this is 1920x1080 which to me isnt that hard on a gpu although im not complaining because the cards are eating things alive and its awesome, ive never seen such things with txaa and the lighting is unreal. Im just curious maybe i have a setting messed up or maybe the mother board bios needs to be set to something, i just dont think my hardware would inhibit the cards from running at its max. And dont get me wrong 76fps isnt a bad number its very smooth Ive just read benchmarks on the game and most cards with maxed out settings are in the 85 range with the same processor. Im just wondering is all I know one thing can cause a little bit of a fps drop. Anyways thanks for the help in advance guys, i appreciate it.

Update: I just installed a patch for SSBL Txaa puts the cards into the 70fps range but if i use another aa method it goes straight to 144fps which is the monitor. I do have a question for you though Arne being that you have two Titans, do they support the Txaa and if so do you notice a big hit on performance while playing?

Yes they do support TXAA and yes stuff like this can have a big effect on your framerate. TXAA, SSAA and MSAA of various levels can bring even a pair of top end cards to their knees. Tomb raider with everything maxed out reduced framerate to 40 sometimes for my SLI...can't remember the SSAA settings...I think max was 4x this brought the cards to 40FPS sometimes, changing it to 2x and they never dropped below the vsync 60FPS
