Mfw people sold their 980Ti for that

>mfw people sold their 980Ti for that

The 4k dream isn't real for GAYMERS. It's perfect for productive desktop use, though. Sorry, back to with you now.

>I-i never cared for 4k!
>i bought a 700$ card for 1080p!

I didn't buy shit. . Go. Now.

When will this meme did? The 1080 retails at 599. Not only that but a single 980 could just barely run GTAV 1080p maxed out. And it couldn't get SEEMLESS 60FPS across the entire game.

These people buy high end graphics cards for 1080 because they buy most games that release. They can afford the latest titles immediately. They're not buying these cards for 1080p TF2 dude.

Nice source faggot

>The 1080 retails at 599

The price is all over the internet, retard.

>1080p TF2 dude.
I get 300FPS with a GTX460m in TF2 on ultra, Red Roosters can't even come close.

>Not only that but a single 980 could just barely run GTAV 1080p maxed out. And it couldn't get SEEMLESS 60FPS across the entire game.

Pretty much every card out there chokes when running GTA V with the "advanced graphics" settings turned up (high resolution shadows, extended distance scaling, extended shadows distance, etc....).

Except you forgot the part where nvidia announced that only they're only releasing the "Founders Edition" first, which are to retail at $699. The only difference being that they come with a reference cooler, so think about that for second. You're paying $100 more for a card that comes with a reference cooler.

It's a bait and switch

Unfortunately it's a very popular game so that's definitely an issue. Rock star is one of the better video game companies out there. Doing it the right way IMO.

But the point remains that there are games out there that high end GPU's choke on at 1080p if you're really pushing the settings. And that's to be said without >60fps monitors.

Frankly idgaf, I just want that buttery 1080@144hz buttery smoothness.

No need for fancy high resolutions for me sitting a few feet away :3

Those games are either CPU bound or poorly optimized shit. In GTA V's case, it's both.

Holy fuck what a utter retard
Advanced temporal AA when?

While I love the game, i can't agree with you enough. GTA 4 was garbage and this is a console mess.

Rockstar is fucking incompetent.

While I appreciate the additional settings, I personally don't think the performance hit is worth it.

Not really. The only time GTA V starts to chug is when you turn up the additional/advanced graphics settings. The "basic" settings are no problem, which is more important IMO. The main problem is that the additional high-res and extended distance shadows eats up VRAM like a mother fucker, which is justified considering the scale of the game and how much is going on within it.

>first

What exactly is your point? Just wait until the non-reference model is available.

Try seeing what your framerate looks like in a 24 man server when everyone is at mid at the start of a round.

9 year old game chugging on high end hardware.

Most people who bought a 980ti were looking for high refresh rates at 1080 or 1440

the "maxing out" games is the real meme
msaa in GTAV is poorly implemented. even a 960 can run it on very high with msaa and reflection aa disabled without any difference in quality

>mfw I get 60fps on 800x600 with an Intel HD

Did you even read the pic you posted?

>The GTX 1080 with cost $599 at launch
>at launch

Which is a blatant lie. Not to mention there hasn't even been a confirmed date on when exactly the non-reference cards are coming out, so have fun waiting.

>Advanced temporal AA when?
Don't know wtf you are talking about, im a total imbecile, lmao.
