average FPS rate on bf3 ? 60hz to 120hz monitor

Hey guys...So i had a dell u3011 with two gtx 580 msi lightning xtremes (3gb edition) in sli. sweet setup..i must say IPS panel in 1600p is awesome. Would of looked better if dell didnt use so much AG coating....and yes you see that little sparkle effect on white backgrounds (if you look for it) anyways i decided i wanted to give 120hz 1080p gaming a try. I have read that you need some serious power to push 120 FPS... Sold the dell monitor and bought a asus 120hz monitor. sold the 580's and bought two gtx 680 asus DC II TOP....which i believe is the fastest 680's....So in BF3 when not looking at the main action i think i average 120fps but as soon as i look at the action (heading into battle) it averages about 85 fps..with all settings ultra and motion blur off. Does that seem right ? I formated and installed a clean version of windows 7 after the graphics card upgrade...newest drivers bios, nvidia, etc

system specs
Windows 7
ASUS P8Z68 DELUXE/GEN3 LGA 1155 Intel Z68
Intel Core i7-2600K Sandy Bridge @ 3.4GHz
G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 @2133 x2 totaling 16GB
ASUS GTX680-DC2T-2GD5 GeForce GTX 680 2GB 256-bit x2 in SLI

I was hoping to get a steady 120fps in action...I must say it does feel much smoother over 60hz monitors. But if i cant get a steady 120fps in action...not sure its worth it.

does my FPS seem right ?

thanks

I don't have a direct answer for you, but 85FPS with two 680s seems drastically low to me.

Probably not right since I get about 85 fps with a single gtx 680 with drops to 60 with action on screen.

Well I dropped my settings all to high . Now I average 95 in action. But not in action looking at a wall it goes to 200 fps on fraps. So no one has any ideas ? Should I overclock my CPU ? Is it true you can connect your SLI bridge the wrong way ? I have SLI enabled in nvidia control panel. What other info can I give you guys

Thanks

Your CPU is definitally fine for gaming. The SLI bridge is fine as long as it fits. Hmm, give me a sec, Ill find some benchmarks to compare to.



248

It comes as a suprise to me, But I guess the 680 in SLI only pulls an average of 105 FPS during BF3. I expected much higher FPS.

Now, Its 105 FPS Average. So having dips down to 85 FPS makes sense.

Also I do not believe heat is a issue. Yes the cards are stacked. The card on top in action doesn't go above 80 degrees and the bottom one averages 65 to 70

Thanks

It takes a lot of gpu power to run that. My freind had trouble running 3d with 2 of those. So That sounds about right.
