Hello everyone,
I recently did a major overhaul to my PC and was trying to be budget friendly and purchased the 760 as an upgrade from an 8800 GTX. Now based on a lot of reviews i had read before purchasing, many people have claimed that they are running games like BF4 and Metro Last Light on Ultra settings with 45 fps or better. Well that hasnt been my experience whatsoever. so im wondering if there is something i am missing as far as settings are concerned. I was using a Sony 1080p TV as my display and noticed that BF4 had a huge performance loss at ultra settings, so i did some reading and found a lot of negative comments regarding using TVs for PC gaming mostly because the repsonse time for a TV is lacking compared to computer monitors so i purchased a computer monitor with 2ms response time, and still at ultra settings in BF4 i MIGHT get 35 fps not moving, and once the action starts happening the FPS falls through the floor. I know the 760s are the lowest end of the new GPUs from Nvidia, and coming from an 8800 its a great upgrade for the price. So im curious to know if people are just exaggerating their performance gains or am i really missing something.
Also,
Never been much for OEM software but i am using Geforce Experience and trying to use the "optimized" settings slider to see if it makes a difference, and default "optimized" settings are about 1/3 from the lowest possible settings. and the game runs great at that setting, but when i slap everything on ultra other than fxaa and anisotropic filtering it bombs.
Current setup:
AMD FX-6300 OC'd to 4.1Ghz
Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3
G.Skill 8Gb 1866
Samsung 840 Pro SSD
EVGA GTX 760 Superclocked 2GB
ViewSonic VX2452MH
Thanks in advance!
