1080 is better bang for your buck. Titan X just means you've wasted your money and it'll be obsolete in a few years.

1070 is even better bang for the buck.

That's not close to the NVIDIA Titan X still. To even consider getting a Titan, you'd want very good performance

Not much of a Nvidia fan - but this is true, in general, for GPUs/CPUs. The newest cards/chips are upmarked to hell and back, and become/1

obsolete just as fast as a card/chip released 6 months ago. So unless bragging rights are worth pissing money away, you're better off/2

by your own logic.. he's got a 6-month bonus on it going obsolete over buying cheaper....

If you decided to spend money on a Titan X you're either on welfare or so rich that money is meaningless. Generally speaking.

i picked up a 1060 on black friday... my 750 still played every game on high settings but i wanted it more higher. 2x1080=most highest?
HellenicTaxCollector
I think 2xTitanX is the highest you can get
FernandoRumdebum
Technically, but SLI (2 cards) performance on newer games has been...spotty at best. Most new titles barely take advantage of a second card
FernandoRumdebum
And nobody knows if this trend will go up or down - SLI is falling out of favour as it no longer makes as much sense, but there is the 1/
HellenicTaxCollector
I think 2xTitanX is the highest you can get
bigredfiretruk
the point is though, spending 8x more money on a 1080 to play the same games at the same settings is elitist and useless ;)

purpurguin
But my point still stands.
KingKrown
Console guy here, why? I see what your saying often,never asked though.
purpurguin
Less input time, smoother, just makes high movement easier to follow.
MikeHorton
Response time, higher fps means Less ms between key presses and seeing them on-screen
MikeHorton
Generally everything gets drawn faster but that's the main point
PubstarHero
Close but not always correct. Depending on the engine used, polling may be tied to framerates due to the internal rendering loop. 1/2
PubstarHero
That is why running some games at 500 FPS even if those frames are dropped forces the game to get inputs 500 times a second. 2/2
MikeHorton
I know the game engine is a big factor as well but it generally works out that higher framerates lead to a faster response time.
Bloodslug
Ok so I know fuck all about gaming pcs but how much would I have to spend to get a decent setup and which would be the best bits to go for ?
JesusOnACracker
If you want 4K gaming with good frames it could range from $800 to $1200 it just matter how good you want it to look.
ICantDecideOnAUserNameAndKeepChangingIt
As long as you're okay with 1080p you should be able to get a decent rig together for $400-$500 that will last a few years.

They shouldn't be lava post-production tho. My 6600K is nice and cool @ 4.6 GHz with a tiny ITX air cooler. MY AMD CPU was a space heater.

DeusExAdamJensen
60 FPS on 4K is amazing, Sony PS4 Pro can't even do 4K. Only upscale but that's still not 4K
anonomoustache
There are also no games that run natively in 4k on either console.
SugarButton
Sony PS4 does have a few titles that do run native 4K such as Skyrim but there are frame drops
Wastyvez
A rig that can run 60fps on 4K at medium settings will cost you twice the amount of a PS4 on the GPU alone. Disingenous comparison.
MnemonicMonkeys
That's not the point. The point is that Sony is falsely advertising the PS4 Pro as 4k capable when it really isn't
YourMumKnowsMe
But the ps4 pro is upscaled 4K and it's 30fps. Still, PC would be more expensive. Also pc games are way cheaper. So costs are the same.
Wastyvez
You would have to buy a lot of games to make up for the difference between a $400 PS4 Pro and a $1500+ gaming rig.
YourMumKnowsMe
Wtf mate a 1500 gaming rig will do 60fps 4k medium settings. So your logic is flawed.
YourMumKnowsMe
An RX 480 pc costs only 100 more than a PS4 pro, and if you buy a RX 470, cost is the same. Both gpus are far better than ps4.

mayormckreedy

Because the PCMR circlejerk doesn't like dissenting voices that point out their elitism.
mayormckreedy
They are just chronically unhappy because deep down ever PCMR knows someone has a better rig then them. I'm just happy with what I have.

What do you mean "even Ps4pro can't..."? Thats like saying "even my Fiat Panda can't hit 100mph. :P only top of the line pcs with dual

YourMumKnowsMe
Quadro P6000 can, but it's like $5000 or something. Also the GTX 1080 can with a few settings turned down.

Yeah i know it runs gta V on max settings around 30fps

RandomAbscessMemories
I don't think you can do higher framerates at 4k due to output limitations. 120/144 monitors seem to cap at 2k.
DinoSuarez
Depending on the connectors on your GPU you can do 4K/120 or 8K/60, but again you'd need one of the displays from CES that doesn't exist yet
RandomAbscessMemories
Ah, see I'd heard the issue was you needed a forthcoming DisplayPort standard to push that much through. May have been old info.
yesallwaifus
FPS over the monitors refresh rate can still reduce input lag. It's a reason you'll see people run on low settings in competitive games.
maxdefault
If you ran quake 3 with anything other then 125 fps the game would suck.
MayRaven
It will still look better if you render more frames as the delay between a rendered and displayed frame is shortened.
MrMince
I don't think it has anything to do with limitations with the monitor I'm pretty sure it's just that computers struggle to make more than 60
polymetricr
if my calculations are correct, uncompressed 4k @ 144fps is roughly 28 Gigabits per second. HDMI 2.0 limits at 18 Gbps.
[deleted]
[deleted]
YharnamsFinest
7680x1440 isn't 4k I thought? Technically
RandomAbscessMemories
A fair point. I was talking about a single, 4k display. Triple monitors come with a lot of issues of their own. (3x1080 here)
TakeshiKovaks
Oh but it's so worth it. So far I've been getting great results with the games I'm playing.
RandomAbscessMemories
I really liked it for Elite, and FPS'. The main issue for me was the distortion on the side monitors could get really distracting at times.
jackychantheman
May be wrong but I'm pretty sure most monitor resolutions dont even go higher than 1080p. 4k is pointless because monitors don't display it
jackychantheman
Don't hate I just feel like I've heard that or something along those lines
itso
Many more resolutions above 1080p - go check it out!
RandomAbscessMemories
There are definitely monitors that go above 1080p, but up until a few years ago they were very expensive. That may be why.
GavinScreaming
You can buy 4k monitors
jackychantheman
Is it that the human eye cant notice a difference?

I'm not saying you should buy a 4K monitor right now...

Asus debuted a 144 hz 4k monitor at ces
RandomAbscessMemories
No shit? I hadn't heard that. Nice.
YharnamsFinest
Yeah they announced 2 of them, coming Q2 2017, both use the new G-Sync HDR too
YharnamsFinest
It's still not available to buy so doesn't matter at this point. Also they'll cost more than most PCs haha

And a 240hz 1080p monitor

I mean, I'm not gonna rain on the parade, but 120 is basically the highest we can see. Still good that things are advancing.
XigTek
1000 is the number you're looking for. 150 is about the highest the 'average person' can differentiate.

Oh god I need it
SadAndFat
WHAT
gaseousmemes
Now they just need to team up with dell for an 8k 240hz monitor

Meanwhile here i am with a 1360x768 tv screen capped at 60 hz... while also having a GTX 1060..
starscape678
Welp. I'm doing 1280x1024 at 60hz :/ but ya know, at least my shit machine churns out a stable 300 fps in csgo
Piratedanger
At least do 1920×1080 man!! That hurts to hear :(
idonthaveanyideawhatthehelliamtalkingabout
why in gods name are you spending money on GPU with that screen ?
YourMumKnowsMe
But I don't think any gpu has the power to run it.
DinoSuarez
I bet the 1080 does. My 980 from 2 years ago does 4K/60 on a lot of games. 1080 is way stronger, turn down some settings and 144hz couldwork
YourMumKnowsMe
Im talking about max and even with settings turned down on some games.
lcplspanky
Will this thing run it, even tho it is cheap https://novedge.com/nvidia/quadro-vca/products/11286?AFTK=FRGL&gclid=CNLByKiOvtECFcK6wAodYOECUA
flightlessfruit
Depends entirely on the game. I can imagine Dota or CSGO running at those fps on a good rig.
orangemarmaladesky
Maybe a NVIDIA Quadro P6000. But that's a professional grade gpu that'll run you over four and a half grand.
Fredfinks
Thats a workstation GPU. different beast for a different job. A high end gaming GPU will easily perform it.
RheaButt
Nah, quadro's advantage is in the vram for rendering, in terms of gaming it's just like a high end GeForce card
Fredfinks
no. no single gpu exsits than can run all new main titles @ 4k @ 60hz min. Single gpu all fluently is 1440p.
