OK heres a question and haven't been able to find a direct answer.. I play World of Warcraft WOD which on my System is vastly different from the same game on Windows8.1.. I am running on avg 50-60FPS occasionally peaking at 90fps on OS X and 75-100FPS peaking around 130fps on Win.
I have a Titan Grfx Card w/ 6gig ram on an oc'd 2600k i7 @ 4.4ghz 16 gig ram, asus maximus V extreme.. I much prefer OS X and trying to see if a 40-50% drop is normal.. I can play everything on ultra in windows and have had to drop to high in OS X to get playable frames on my 30" 2560x1600 display...

Additionally Could a different card be better utilized i.e.. a 980ti or the amd 295x ?
I am running the latest web drivers from nvidia on yosemite 10.10.4
I did see a jump in performance switching from the OS X driver to the web driver ..
The system runs flawlessly otherwise? Any thoughts or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Do you actually notice a difference between 60-90fps and 120fps? Is 90 not playable? Some of the graphics effects do not translate well to Open GL, such as the shadows and sunbloom. Turn those down a notch and you'll be back up over 140fps in no time.

I wouldn't mid 60-70fps but have been spoiled by playing it via winblowz : and getting minimum speeds of 100 maxed out and would be fine with 60-70 fps but getting 40-45 i horrid.. None the less I did turn down most of my settings and now am getting 80-90fps for the most part, it isn't that its bad just for the life of me can't appreciate/ understand getting mid setting out of a Titan Grfx card with 6gb of ram... I completely killed my OS X install trying to figure it out and ended up doing a fresh install and still getting the same framerates..

Guess my bigger concern now is why my system is running slower than most.. I was researching through this journey and as a result started running the benches that are available and my scores are lower than most.. Im getting a 9400 geekbench3 score while it seems those with comparable and or lower systems are getting 12-14k scores? Again I thought i had assembled a pretty hefty group of components and on my win side its pretty smoking but on OS X side seems weak? Don't get me wrong it works but I'm one of those people who have to make it faster than what it needs, Enthusiest if you will and ultimately am disappointed with the outcome Ive got, now Im considering a new MB/CPU combo, could it be the reason is just its not a recommended combo Im currently using?

1.How can i get my geek bench score up to the 14-15k
2. Would it improve with the TitanX or other card?
3. Whats the best CPU MB combo for performance?
