I should have read it a little more carefully and previous posts. Thank you.

Thank you for the response, I tweaked the settings as much as i could to get great quality at acceptable framerate from what im getting and not sure how much i can improve.

I was lucky enough to get the R9 at $350 before the miners got their hands on it. Im also very interested in the features that AMD is offering such as true audio, mantle and their gsync similair technology that will be coming soon. Love nvidia and my next card will probably be from them unless Maxwell turns out to be good in mining (so far its showing good results...damn lol) Switching to compact version solved my issue with the massive fps drop when opening chat and I tend to like the compact version a lot more then expanded so that is a plus. What bandwith should I set it at then? Thanks again tot hose who replied and cleared up the confusion between me and Drake.

I have overclocked my cpu to 4.0 which brings the perfromance very close to your cpu. Ive also made sure video drivers are up to date and roll abcked from beta drivers since they were causing issues. Gonna try the compact mode for the chat, thanky ou for the advice and replies!

"What id your graphics card?" DO you mean what is my graphics card? Or ID of the graphics card. it is labeled as GPU in the system spec list. Bandwith set to 2000 k/bs Speedtest: http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/3325613717

Im interested to know if anyone knows of a veiwer that helps increase performance. I have a very powerful computer but i find it frustrating when i have to play on certain low details just to stay around 20 fps. Also, anyone know of a reason why public chat is extremely laggy? Once i open it up, i drop down to 9 or 10 fps until i close it. Anyway I can drastically increase performance or is second life doomed to poor optimization?
