hello to all as stated in the post title i have a few questions, so let me start of by giving a little history of my rig so in oct. of 2015 i upgraded my rig from asrock p5dbe(think thats what it was only had it a few months) with a xeon x5470 to an asus crosshair V formula z with an fx9590 now i am super happy with this rig but i would get huge amount of screen tearing when playing on my 4k 49" ips panel monitor so i went ahead and bought another 980ti from zotac amp extreme so i have them in sli, okay so now to my questions. okay first ? is why when overclocking my cpu do i get such a lower score in fire strike ultra here is the link to it http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/12858285? that is with my cpu overclocked to 5.1 ghz and this one is with my cpu at the stock speed of 4.7ghz with turbo core off http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/12858989? now we are talking about a 3000 points difference in score which is not small potatoes. so some things that i have check include temps gpus were around 60-70 degrees C and cpu was at 50 degrees C, power draw from my rig which was right around 850 watts at the maximum,i have a 1200watt psu. so idk im stumped. maybe some of the professionals on here know whats going on, because i sure dont. okay now on to my other questions okay when it comes to cpu usage which should i believe HW monitor or my msi aftreburner OSD. you see whenever i play a game my msi afterburner OSD says i only am using about 50-60% of my cpu usage but when i finish playing and look at HW monitor it says 100% of cpu was being used so which one of these is correct.

??? You are aware that Vsync would have taken care of that, right?
