Since your GPU is a lot better than mine, your CPU is the probable bottleneck ( mine is quite a lot better on single-core performance)
his GPU and CPU are better than mine and i have higher average frames than he has.
and im GPU limited

my six cores also have all ~same usage ratio

that explains it.
get a driver update and try again.
your GPU is able to use mantle/vulkan
and of course your performance is worse when you use the inferior API
for contrast my results with DX

with the same "one core works, one does a bit and the other idle" pattern in CPU usage.
with mantle all my cores have similar utilisation of 60-90%

My 560 ran
a certain game with minimal graphics settings at 4-20 FPS. Depending on objects on map, the map itself, etc.
New card plays
the certain game with maximum graphics settings at 56-60 FPS.

Upon my brother's insistence I applied for a new, presumably better (much higher ceiling for technical excellence) job today. And was hired on the spot. They'll train me from scratch.
Only two more weeks of night shift and I'm off to brighter, shinier, better challenges!

Welding.
It's a custom metal enclosures operation.
I toured the place yesterday (and met the welding supervisor; nice guy), and they seem to run a tight ship. Clean, well lit, well ventilated, well organized.

I bow in front of every good welder. Especially stainless steel, aluminum, and polymer welders! We had a guy in my previous company, he was about 50 years old, master welder! I never saw such evenly placed welding points and such beautiful welding grooves. He never used a machine, always did it by hand. He could weld ANYTHING!
