Hi everyone, I;m new to these forums and have a few questions about my system and how I can "get the most out of it for gaming". I built most of it my self, as I'm good with hardware, but am absolute [censored] at software and settings and whatnot. So on to my specs, I have an i7-3930K, at 3.20GHz, 3201 Mhz, and 6 cores. So beyond knowing how to install that and make it work in my machine, I have no idea if my computer is using all of the CPU's potential for gaming. How can I make sure of that, I guess would be my question. And I have a AMD Radeon 7079 HD as my Graphics Card, as well I can I know that I am maximising my potential? Thanks in advance guys.

benchmark your system while in games & compare it to other people. I recommend overclock.net to find more ppl to compare it to since they are the gamer type of people with their core i7s and stuff.
