Hey forum !
I havent been reporting this as i maybe should have as i know some people do still have these problems
When i got it solved, i was so relief'd so i didnt actually care anymore
Anyway, i had problems with Low-GPU usage in pretty much all games, crysis, bfbc2, team fortress2, mass effect2, etc... well , in fact, all games i tried had low-gpu usage which naturally lead to lower FPS then normal.
I tried all drivers, all possible geforce drivers that supports fermi since release date with no success.
Anyway, the solution _for me_ was:
I installed the Quadro 265.90 drivers with modded inf for win7 x64.
--
Now i play BFBC2 and Vietnam with 99% gpu usage and very high fps, no drops.
Crysis recieved a gigantic performance boost goin from mid 50's in gpu usage to 99% constant, which naturally yield huge fps increase.
Team Fortress2 went from 20% gpu usage up to 80-99%, and gave me the biggest increase in performance ive ever seen.
Also Batman arkham asylum recieved a good performance boost aswell with a gpu usage of 90-99%.
Mass effect2 showing good gpu-usage now aswell.
Two worlds2 showing 99% gpu usage constant.
----
Worth mentioning: even with vsync on, the gpu usage still remains over 70% and show good performance.
The only 2 games that did not get affected are: Starcraft2 and World of Warcraft (which both still show low gpu-usage)
Anyway, these drivers worked for me, i cannot guarantee they will work for others in the same way, but i hope they do.
So to all people that claimed my cpu is a bottleneck or anything else, pffft on you!
Now my 470 is really playing the games, The way they are ment to be played
