Made a post about this in r/pcmasterrace also. Wanted to get another opinion. Maybe you guys can pin it down!

I'm having a rather big issue with my GTX 1080 FTW, and well that is my card can't maintain 60 fps 1080p in most games. It can't run GTAV at 2x MSAA with FXAA at 1080p everything else maxed out besides advanced options at 60 fps. It can barely hold 50 fps in Hitman, and in Arma 3 it sits around 70-80 in single player, and 15-40 in multiplayer (but this is server side, not the card I know this). These aren't bad frame rates but I'm positive my GPU should be achieving much higher ones, at least according to benchmarks and reviews. Now, the biggest culprit I could think of is my CPU. It is a i5 4690k at 3.7 GHz. But even this shouldn't hold back the card. If you have any idea what it could be, please reply to this post and we can talk about it. Really disappointed right now. My specs are as follows

GPU: EVGA GTX 1080 FTW CPU: i5-4690k @ 3.7 Ghz Motherboard: MSI Z97a Krait Edition PSU: 850w EVGA B2 Ram: 8gb (x1) Mushkin
