I experimented various setting how u'll see, I wonder why (from medium settings to high, tested also forest=0) I have near to zero fps improvement.
Is the bottleneck elsewhere?
In this test cpu usage: Cpu1 mostly 70% Cpu 2-3-4- 40-45% more or less
Ram usage 75% more or less
VRam 95-98%
very strange 4me

I've done too some testing with my system. I found the CPU a bottleneck in my system while never utilizing a core at 100%. Read my posts (4th post and later on page 5 and 6)

In the meantime I've upgraded my system (will later post the results in that thread) with a AMD 1100T processor in place of my old AMD X4 640. The result is that with this processor at least one core is utilized at 100%. In my opinion it is that some processors don't give full utilization in the graph because saturation of certain instruction sets won't translate to full utilization in a graph. However the processor is still fully utilized. Since my upgrade I see also a better utilization of my graphics card.
@RickRuski: Nice to see you have found a good compromise between performance and eye candy on your system. And probably with time it will only get better as the code gets optimized. I also wouldn't recommend overclocking your system if you aren't comfortable with it or have the cash to replace damaged components. However, I have to say that I have never damaged one component in more than ten years overclocking. The only thing is that I probably have worn out some components sooner than I would have without overclocking (due to electromigration). But most of the time components are written of due to technological advances before that happens.
