gtx 950, 30fps in most games if you wanna run at 1080p, but i prefer to lower the res in favour of fps

>>342601049
960 4gb. Surprisingly well, it runs alot of games at neat ultra settings while needing just a few things turned down to Medium depending on the game.

I'll be upgrading when the next generation of cards comes out, I don't see a reason to go for the 1000 line when this is doing well as it is.

A 40% jump in performance was pretty decent and they were pretty upfront with how quickly they'd release their next cards after that.
A lot of people were jumping from fermi era cards to maxwell, or at least the not stupid ones were.

9800gtx+, it's holding up pretty great considering that so far there's about 3 games that I want to play but can't (The Witcher 3, gta V and arma 3), everything else Im interested in is either playable on 1080p@30fps at least or not released yet.

This year the count of desired games will probably go up to 6, and if it turns out to be true I'll finally release the 9800gtx from its duties, such a fantastic card.

I'm not sure why I bothered, there's nothing for me to stress them with. I've been playing XIV at 144 hz which is super nice though. It's a bit hard going back to 60 fps now

I do have a vive though, and even one 180 was a great performance boost

GTX1080. Pretty great so far. Was a massive upgrade from my 660. I can actually play games on ultra and not have to play around with the settings anymore.

At first I thought the card got too hot during some games, but it turns out it was just the heat from this weather. Probably wasn't a good idea to install it and test temps on a 90 degree day.

it has a pretty steep curve to hit 60fps 4k on witcher 3 max settings. The difference required is astronomical to get that extra 15 fps. There have been reports of 2 titan x's running sli cannot hit constant 60. Though I do think dual 1080s would. I'm just not willing to fork over that much money for literally a 15fps difference when all other modern games like DSIII run around 50+fps 4k max settings.

Yeah I could see that, my 6870 is aging but DESU the only game with serious frame drops is DS3. Every other game can run at medium settings if I drop the resolution down to 900p or 768p.

I can't complain too much, it gets hot as fuck though. There was also an issue with the paste that was causing thermal throttling until I replaced it.
1080p performance is spot on, 2560x1440 not so much with the like of Metro and TW3 unless toning down the graphics a bit (on the plus side, AA is pretty much superfluous at 2k).

Been rocking a Vapor-X 290 for over 2 years now. It maxes out nearly every recent game at 1080/1440p 60fps. Capable of running some games at 4K 50fps like Dragon's Dogma and Dead Space 1&2.

Probably gonna wait for the non-reference 490x to drop.

The 9800 was god-tier. I remember it could max out Max Payne 3.

Doom 4 on ultras 60 fps.

I was planning to buy a 1080, but is either out of stock, or available only from resellers for $850. If it goes like this, 1080Ti will be out before the prices stabilise.

I could run absolutely everything at 60fps on at least medium settings until DOOM came along

I set everything except render resolution to it's lowest and I can only get 60fps on the first few levels. After that it's 60 in smaller areas and down to 30 in larger ones with lots of enemies.

I fell for the 2gb VRAM is enough meme

I had a GTX590 since 2011. There was a recent Windows update or something that causes my computer to no longer recognize or use the card? I dunno, it sees the card in the device manager but has a Code 43 error and nothing I do seems to fix the problem (including uninstalling card, installing new drivers, removing old drivers, waiting for another Windows update to fix the problem).

I've had many MANY problems with the card itself. I'm finally ordering a new card, a GTX960, which seems like a good price and I can probably see a boost in performance. I could play most games with medium/high settings previously, this one looks like it can do the same without overheating and killing the card (which happened whenever I played GTA5).

Good thing I know next to nothing about cards, because there better not be a permanent problem with my computer that it won't like the new card! Oh boy!


tl;dr GTX590 fucked up, hoping GTX960 doesn't have any problems when I install it.

I have a 970. If you're gaming at 1080p resolution, I don't believe there's a reason to upgrade to this new generation unless you're gaming at 4k or doing VR. I'm getting a solid 60 to 90 frames per second on all graphics intensive games, and on less intensive games I'm getting 120, which maxes my monitor's refresh. I don't see any games that push the limits graphically in the works either.

If there's a new card that gives a 50% performance boost for ~$250 I'd probably buy it, but that's probably not going to happen with the upcoming 1070, I'll have to wait until the 1170.
