same here, games like TERA or anything that is terribly optimised will cpu bound...
nothing u can do about it cause the 4770k is just about the most powerful cpu u can get... actually the 2600k which came out couple years ago is almost the same (1-5% speed difference to the 4770k). Not much improvements in performance over the last few years which is too bad.
with next gen consoles having 8 cores, games should be better hopefully. I have a 680gtx, i havent upgraded yet cause of the same reason, not sure if i'd get much benefit for the games i play. i have a 4770k@4.5ghz... and a 2600k@4.7ghz, both almost identical in performance... so don't change ur cpu.

Isn't it around a 20-25% difference clock for clock?
@JigglyWiggly_: i get rubbish frame rate of 25 to 30 for most games whatever the seeting iz ............. games are unplayable..........i dont kno whats causing the problems...........
@horgen123: its a 3.4 ghz i7 4770 ................... i will not be able to clock speed it......... so the 3.4ghz enough.........cuz i get poor framerate in ac4..........in whatever setting that is........i did all the tweaks.......... also i get same issue in crysis 3..........i connected 2 internal hardrive with my main harddrive from my old computer........

I haven't played those games, but a 4770 at 3.4GHz paired with a 780 Ti should give good(actually great) framerate in those games if you are playing at 1080P. It is a powerful processor and one of the best cards out there as well. You must have something else that gives you really poor performance then. Maybe a program running in the background hogging a lot of the resources your PC has.

5% at best in every test i ran on my pc.... sometimes even less. for games i benchmarked batman, and got 1-3fps more at the most. basically if u got a 2600k and a 4770k, the performance is virtually the same. even video compression, with all 8 threads going, maybe a few frames a second more compression speed.
and the fact u can easily overclock the 2600k to 4.7ghz and i couldnt get my 4770k past 4.5ghz without problems from stablity from too much heat and volts.
so if ur benchmarking for games, most of the time there isnt even a framerate increase... not saying 4770k is bad, just that it shows the staying power of the 2600k cpu.

I highly doubt it's a program running in the background that's hogging that many resources. Sounds over the top. TC, if this isn't a brand new build, remove old drivers with Fusion driver removal program. Follow the steps properly on how to uninstall previous drivers. Once that is finished, download the most recent WHQL and Beta drivers and try different ones until your performance yields the performance your CPU+GPU should be getting. A 4770, even non-K shouldn't be holding back that GPU.

that's a single player game
the games you will benefit are games like tribes ascend, bf4, tera, games like that
Yes, it will possibly bottleneck your system if you're running 3 780Ti's. Otherwise, not a chance. If you have any i7 (from any time period) you're sitting pretty.
