    Understandable. I use to have an i5 6500, and it got the job done. As long as you aren't spawning in 20 cars in BeamNG, you should be fine.

    Happy birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!
    And 60 fps if you have vync on but if it's turned off its 120 for minimum and maximum is 1000 for a game from 2000 (like some old NFS games)

    Could always be worse! But like you said, not too bad.

    I'm running 3 EVGA 1080ti FTW3 cards right now, but I use two for mining cryptocurrency. I could play pretty much any map with everything maxxed in 4k at a solid 50-60fps (vsync) with one of the cards. Those other maps, like that new big city map, run at a rock solid 60fps no matter what you do when I sli a second one in there. I'm also running a i7 7800x as a processor using 16gb of ddr4 3000. Needles to say it heats up my room rather nicely right now because when I'm not gaming all three cards mine 24/7.

    You'll be fine with that 1080ti, you're gunna have a blast playing beamng. Changes everything lol

    Dang, did you go and steal a pc from NASA?

    I bet my experience will be a lot better than my intel hd graphics right now, but i'm so impatient, it will take 2 weeks to ship :(

    Dang, that’s a good birthday gift! I think I’ll be stuck with my 2009 Compaq Intel Celery craptop for a while though, getting like 15 or 29 FPS on RoR. Waiting for the RoR website to be back up so I can try it on my Mac.

    My first computer was like yours, but I got 19 fps on lowest settings and lowest resolution in MINECRAFT

    OK Guys, here is a big question:

    Since my GTX 1080 Will be able to run both forza horizon 3 and motorsport 7, which one should i buy? (just quote this post and say game name)
