Referring to the details you provided, these are your system specifications and components. The configuration includes an Intel Core i5-4690K CPU running at 3.50GHz, a Z97 motherboard, Corsair Vengeance 8GB RAM, an H440 SSD, a 250GB Crucial MX100 battery, and a WD Black 1TB drive. The setup also features a 23-inch LED monitor with Hyper 212 EVO cooling, a Razer DeathAdder mouse, and Windows 8.1.
I receive scores between 50 and 80, which means you'll receive the same result.
I don't possess those items, so the only thing I can state is "Ehhh you'll be perfectly fine" since it matches the suggested setup. Suggested systems include: OS: Windows 8.1 64 Bit, Windows 8 64 Bit, Windows 7 64 Bit SP1; Processor: Intel Core i5 3470 @ 3.2GHZ (4 cores) or AMD X8 FX-8350 @ 4GHZ (8 cores); RAM: 8GB; Graphics: NVIDIA GTX 660 2GB or AMD HD7870 2GB; Sound: 100% DirectX 10 compatible HDD; Storage: 65GB.
The 970 appears to have performance issues right now, often dropping below 50fps and struggling with frame stability. I've noticed it's not running smoothly consistently, though it might be playable until optimizations are made. (Other details are lost in the typing.) Edit: It seems you're having to tweak settings a lot—found a good configuration that brings me over 80fps. 😊
It's very well tuned. I use surround sound (5880 x 1080) and run at 60FPS on a single EVGA 970 SSC. I haven't experimented much with the adjustments to test them, but here are my current settings. NOT using borderless—I just changed it to free up space for desktop work.
It seems the performance is likely excellent. (You may need to disable AA or reduce its volume to 2-4x to avoid exceeding 3.5GB of VRAM usage)
