I have recently upgraded to a multi GPU configuration which includes tow R9 290's. Now I am using an Intel z77 platform with a quad core i5 3570k processor. Many viewers have suggested that this kind of CPU does not fit the bill and is not up to the task of handling these two graphics cards. But I would have to disagree, in my experience my overclocked 3570K at 4.7Ghz does a fantastic job. I am not claiming that an i7 Intel CPU with it's hyper threading would not provide a slight boost and at time better minimum frame rates. But I feel some people a greatly under estimating the performance of an Intel ivy bridge i5 processor. It has been suggested to me that on one of the more demanding levels on Crysis 3 called welcome to the jungle, would max out my CPU usage and in turn cause major frame rate drops as low as 5fps and could even freeze the game. Well I have picked this level to prove this notion false. I hope you enjoy the video
