    PCI Express power management can throttle your GPU

    For those of u who may not have dabbled in Power Management settings and set ur rig to a "High Performance" profile....
    Might be worth checking to see if ur PCI Express power management is set to OFF.
    Below is a link to some discussion and more details on where to find this setting.
    I think most will find it is already off but as per the discussion below some (but not all) have found it on and have had fps improvement by turning it off.
