Good look. Yea i been reading/watching a couple reviews on it. Seems like it's the best "budget" 1440p out there. Just make sure u go for the generation 2 model not the first. My 3080 coming sometime this week so i think i'ma cop this. I'm official ready for Cyberpunk!

What about this one?

 

[Tommy Knocks]

Bout to go fire up 2K and WoW. Any other graphic intensive games ya'll want me to run?

finally. after all that jibber jabber someone pulls up with a card.
red redemption 2. let us know the FPS.

edit: I didnt see this post, ,cigg beat me to it lol

Nice! Test RDR2 ultra 4K. Control and Metro: Exodus with full RTX, ultra 4K (no DLSS),

If anybody who copped the 3000 series runs the Vulkan beta drivers, I am curious to that performance. @Rain I won't ask you to do all that, but if you do get curious I wouldn't mind you sharing reults.

its looking bad for the itx cases

so far. 2 youtubers have tried, and they all run too hot. ill wait and see if they watercool or until the 3070. this is exactly why im waiting. i knew this shyt would happen.

That's exactly why I'll always be good with ATX mid, and maybe even full one day I'd rather just make room for my setup than try to play tetris

Damn yea if you need that horsepower to be mobile you kinda stuck until blocks come out or maybe even the supers. Well depending on how much power you want, RDNA2 might have your back too

I'm pretty much forced to put a third-party 30 series GPU in my NZXT H1 build, which I don't mind, since I knew from the full reveal of the cards that the FE would turn an ITX case into an oven.

lets wait until the water blocks are out.

Nice! Test RDR2 ultra 4K. Control and Metro: Exodus with full RTX, ultra 4K (no DLSS),

Tested them in 4K and Ultrawide (3440x1440p)

Metro Exodus (RTX, no DLSS)
4K: Around 75fps (this is gonna be highly dependent on the area you're in if IIRC)
UW: 100-120fps

This is the best looking FPS this gen with raytracing enabled. And playing ultrawide is something else man. I thought Control had the best ray-tracing but it really brings life to this game. Enabling DLSS (not 2.0) in this gets you up to around 100fps in 4K but it just doesn't look as good as 2.0 so the tradeoff isn't as lateral.


Red Dead Redemption
4K: 90-100
UW: 100-120fps


Control (RTX, no DLSS)
4K: 45-50 fps DLSS 2.0 is such an improvement, framerate rise, over TAA in this. I don't see a reason to not use it with these numbers. Especially consider I get damn near 100FPS with it enabled
UW: 75fps

Control RTX native 4k with no DLSS the new Crysis except 45-50 is still perfectly manageable

No 60fps for Control with a 3090? Card is trash confirmed.

Breh ray-tracing is no fukking joke in that game

With it off, I get around 75fps with 4K in the game
