| shakarak said: I recently got the Gtx 770 2GB ($310 with three free games via Nvidia) a few months back and have enjoyed it. Assassins Creed 4 runs around 40-55 FPS with ultra everything in settings, 1080p, 4x MSAA and physx particles on normal. Physx Particles on extreme caused it to dip under 30 fps in boat fights and around campfires. I have it slightly overclocked but not much. Having physx support is pretty awesome though. Bioshock Infinite also ran over 60 fps 98% of the time. I got it on the recommendation that I wouldn't need the 4GB of ram as the kinds of games that will need that much at 1080p/1440p are years off. Although I'm not sure that is a true statement anymore. I really hope I didn't fuck up by not spending the extra $50-$60 for the 4GB. |
Well Watch Dogs already starts stuttering with less than 3GB of RAM with ultra textures at 1080p. Tho that might just be a memory management issue. Having said that MSAA+Ultra textures can even cause issues on cards when moving fast with 3GB aparently. But again that could be an issue with Watch Dogs, tho I wouldn't be surprised if it became a trend over the next couple years. Especially in open world games like Watch Dogs, The Witcher 3 etc. You should be fine if you drop textures and AA down a notch tho.
This is a comparison of Watch Dogs with High textures (recommended for 2GB+ at 1080p) vs Ultra (recommended for cards with 3GB+)
