I dont play those games though.
DESU i think every system has its market, im a big fan of RTS and FPS so PC was the obvious choice for me, console has barely any strategy games and the fps they get tend to be watered down easy mod shit compared to the PC counterparts. If i was more into raciing games or RPGs id probably have gotten a console, or if i wanted some couch multiplayer.

The EXACT thing can be said about The Witcher 3. It has great characters, a good setting and some of the quests are well written, the actual gameplay itself is laughable bad yet it gets a free pass because it's the only decent thing the PC has got to have in years.

Even with the latest hardware, a single GPU can't achieve 4k/60 in most games. Uncharted 4 has taken the crown as far as graphics go, but only because no games are actively trying to push graphics on PC. All we're stuck with is high resolution multiplats that look so-so.

You need to double up your RAM, son. It's practically free, so you may as well fucking future-proof yourself now, rather than later.

Other than that, your main concern outside of a GPU upgrade should be investing in a better tower and cooling system: I don't like my HD and SSD getting above 40, and if my GPU hits even 75 it damned well better be under "Mod Skyrim 'til it crashes" load.

You'll have to wait for the Vega release of the Fury X

The Fury X has already been confirmed to be the beefiest GPU until 2017. Big Pascal is literally impossible to mass produce so Nvidia are charging 10,000 per order.

It looks as though Big Pascal is a 5000 shader monster but we won't see it any time soon.

The GTX1080 is only a massively overclocked R9 390. People a fucking freaking out for shit that's already out. If its anything like the GTX980 just leave it for the impatient people

The difference is that you can change what happens in the story and interact with the characters in TW3, you retard. It's literally part of the gameplay. It's what people expect and want in RPGs. Uncharted's story is just you watching cutscenes and listening to people talk with no interaction on your part. That's not gameplay.

Because I have games that push them and if they don't push them I down-sample from 1440/4k to 1200p.

If you don't care about graphics that is your prerogative and you can get a cheaper graphics card. That is part of the beauty of PC gaming, you can build for what you want.

The 280X isn't a high end card and is very good price/performance. It does it's job well and can play a very selection of games at 60 fps on ultra at 1080p.

There are some games that it is not quite there like the Wticher 3 and you may either need to lower some settings or drop down to 900p but for a large majority of games it is perfect.

Serves idiots right for mindlessly trying to target 60 because people brainwashed you into believing your PC was not inferior only if it doesn't push 1080p/60 at bare minimum, but that you also can't enjoy video games unless the hit that frame rate and alas, mountains of idiots subscribed to the idea and now legitimately can't enjoy video games, unless I adheres to an arbitrary performance quota.

Enjoy the fucking console port PC clowns. When technical problems starts coming before you and video games, you should start to realize you that fucked up and became a literal pawn molded by and for PCMR

They do because we don't have to buy new hardware that can't play them every couple of years. You only have to buy new hardware if you want to play the most recent games too. You had this advantage as well until they decided to drop backwards compatibility.

what is this representing exactly, is it averages or highest points?

the problem I find is getting lots of sharp dips in frame rate, which I'm lead to believe is due to CPU

This isn't an acceptable excuse. Nevermind that resolution is extremely noticeable to everyone, you shouldn't handwave inferior performance just because you can "Do without". Demand better.
>>
>>337350602

Framerate dips are usually GPU related, I have the same CPU as you OC to 4.1ghz and the only issues I get with GTA are because of my Graphics card which is an 7950.

If you get a liquid cooler you could push it to 4.6ghz easy, more than enough for any game and a 1080.
