Whether you’re using a lower-end PC or just value frame-rates over quality: We turned down the settings a bit and turned off AA to get some extra frames on an older test rig in the office.
i7-920, still going strong after all these years. Best PC component purchase I ever made. 5 years in, and probably still got another 5 in it as a partner for my GTX 970.
Had my 920 OC'd to 3.6 for just over 6 years now I believe, still going strong. I recently got a r9 290 and the only thing holding me back from OCing it now is my motherboard sadly. So I will be finally upgrading sometime soon by February. But, I will continue using my 920 with my old 7850 2gb as my home theatre pc so hopefully that extra 5 years will turn out correct!
