thanks for the replies.
I tried lowering the IR and there was no serious improvement. Judging by what you guys have said, i'm probably cpu bottle necked then? If I want to get a more consistent higher fps do you think 3570k would be enough? I want to avoid having to buy a new board for haswell. But then again I would need a good cooler to overclock the 3570k. Any recommendations as to what cooler I should get and how far I would need to overclock to get a stable high fps?
