Gonna Buy a Videocard

How well should a GTX 760 be able to run BeamNG? My processor is an i5 2500k @4.2GHz and I've got 8 gigs of 1333MHz RAM.
Thanks in advance

 

You can expect 1080/60 in most games

 

The only problem ive had with my GTX 760 is coil whine, other than that its a absolute animal of a card.

 

+1 for the 760. I put together a new build a couple months ago and that's what I landed on. It's right in the sweet spot of performance vs price.

 

I have a 4GB GTX770 in a pc of mine and that gets silky smooth 60fps at 1080p but I would say go with the 760 then

 

Yeah, a 760 is pretty good.
I hope you have a good PSU with about 450W, not a cheap ChinaCrap

 

It's a high end nVidia card that costs $250 USD.

There's no sweet spot at the top of the list...

 

for the amount of power it has? it's quite cheap actually, so it has a great price to performance ratio compared to most other gpu's

 

It's a great card. Coil whine is random.

 

Yeah, go for it! BeamNG is not too graphically intensive with most of the PostFX off. (With them off my CPU bottlenecks my overclocked 650ti 2GB by quite a bit, but it really depends on map/vehicle.)

 

With a slightly OCed 2600K and a GTX 760 DCUII OC (Still at superclocked speeds, haven't played enough with it yet) I can get about 40-50 FPS on DRI at 1080p with PostFX on.

 

I have a 780 ti, it runs beamng @ 60 FPS. Strange, I know. A 760 will do about the same, 50-60 FPS.

 

They're both 700 series cards, not so strange at all.

You'd think paying twice more for the card you'd get
twice the frame rate...LOL

 

The thing is, my 760 keels over dead when I try to output at anything higher than 1080p unless I seriously kill some settings down. His 780ti will not.

 

Your card runs out of steam or is that the point when your GPU is waiting for your CPU to keep up...

 

sounds like cpu bottleneck, the 760 should have no problem with resolutions over 1080P (or at least up to 1440P, not sure about anything higher than that) other than in beamng

 

Wut

Wut. So wrong.

Vsync?

Even my 770 is known for screwing around at 1440p and higher. See; VRAM
Yes, I've seen it on my 1280x1024, mine craft is horribly coded.

 

He blamed his GPU for failing at resolutions higher than 1080p.

I suggested it was probably his CPU failing while his GPU waited for
it to catch up.

That was a little joke, hence the LOL. Sorry you missed that.

Pathetic use of grammar btw...

 

Yeah, I missed the joke. :*
I really can't figure out how that translates to a CPU bottleneck though.

 

How what translates to a CPU bottleneck?

The fact his frame rate dies over 1080p?
Or my sentence and how I worded it?
