Hello. I have a question. My pc is Asus Strix 980 and cpu I7 4790K stock. But i think my pc is not performing enough in Crysis 3. Because i have only 5-6 fps more than somebody with Gtx 780 + 4790K stock . I tested the same place on game, using of course the same details ( 1920x1080, V.HIGH + MSAA 4x ).
I with Gtx 980 Strix + 4790 stock have only 5-6 fps more than somebody with Gtx 780 + 4790 stock. Also i am using the newest drivers.

What game? What percentage faster is this GPU than your 780? (Don't expect it to double or anything.) Was your 780 OCed? (Possibly at the factory?) Can you OC your 980?

Or maybe it's a CPU-limited game that doesn't use a lot of cores? In which case you could try turning off hyper-threading in the BIOS.

I have Asus Strix 980 + I7 4790K . And i have only 5-6 fps more than somebody with 780 GTX + I5 3570K.
Look:

He have :Intel Core i5 3570k (4.2 GHz)
DDRIII 8Gb (1333 MHz)
nVIDIA GTX 780 Gigabyte GHZ Edition


We both using the same details on game ( 1920 x1080 , V.HIGH , 4MSAA ). In places when he got 50 fps i have only 55 fps. Is this something wrong with my pc?

Nothing wrong. The 780 is a strong card, or was. As drivers improve your 980 will start to look better.

Next thing . Listen. How is this possible?
Gtx 970 + i5 3570K with 1920x1080 + MSAA 8x + V.HIGH performing on the same place 59 - 60 fps . Look:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YfUpYMUaiw0 look on left to framerate counter.
60 fps with MSAA 8x on Gtx 970 ?!


Now Gtx 780 Ti & 4770K with 1920x1080 + MSAA 8x + V.HIGH performing on the same place 59 - 60 fps . Look:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?x-yt-ts=1422327029&v=vMqul5dLE5k&x-yt-cl
look on left to framerate counter. 60 fps with MSAA 8x on 780Ti ?!


Question is. Why i on Gtx 980 OC + 4790K with MSAA 8x on the same area have 30 - 40 fps?! They tweak something or its something bad with my pc?

Is your card overclocked? How about the CPU, is itoverclocked? That can make a significant difference in some situations. These other videos are running highly overclocked GPUs. Their CPU is also overclocked. Note that they are running Very High. Not Ultra.

Very HIGH is the most high option. They running on V.HIGH.
And they have weaker cpus than me. I have 4790K stock.
So why on Gtx 970 he have 60 fps with MSAA 8x when i on Asus Strix 980 have 30-40 fps?
My card is overclocked by factory with boost 1324mhz.

Or look here:
Gtx 680 with TXAA getting 60 - 70 fps. I have 50 fps with TXAA.
How this is possible on Gtx 680 with TXAA getting 60 - 70 fps?!

780GHZ Edition is closer to 780Ti performance, if not sightly faster. I suppose your GTX980 strix would be 10% faster than the 780GHZ.
