I dismiss this as nonsense. https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Perf...r_3/3.html
IF there is a significant difference between Kepler and Maxwell (and that's a big if), i doubt it's deliberate (deliberate as in malicious) and just a result of the difference in architectures.
My performance matches what I expect, though mine is slightly better since I turned off motion blur (it's tough to handle) and AA (not needed for 4K). I also disabled Hairworks.
The GTX 960 shouldn't surpass the GTX 760 by 10 frames at 1600x900 resolution. (960 delivers 38fps, while 760 operates at 28fps)
