1080p Gaming Performance on GTX 950 2gb

Elliot Ramos · Jan 17, 2018

I'm using a GTX 950 2gb on a 720p tv and planning to get a 1080p monitor. I'm getting 40-60fps in pubg using Nvidia's Game Booster (Optimize settings for pubg. Med texture, ultra anti alias, etc). If I switched to 1080p, will it drastically drop my fps? Does changing my gpu into a RX 560 4gb will have significant effect on fps?

If keeping the same settings, and it's not the CPU that's bottlenecking, yes, you'd likely see a drop in framerate. Upgrading to RX 560 4gb will have negligible difference. You can still play at 720p on a 1080p monitor though.

The monitor i'm trying to get is a LG23MP68VQ which has 75Hz and FreeSync. Does the game looks blurry if its played in 720p on a 1080p monitor?

My PC Specs:
I3-4160
AsRock H81M-VG4
8gb DDR3 1333mhz Dual Channel
GTX 950 2gb
Corsair VS450

If you play in full screen, and the 1080p monitor is physically larger, the DPI would be less (larger pixels) when playing on 720p on the 1080p monitor.

Should I keep the GTX 950 or the RX 560 4gb is worth the extra bucks?

Elliot Ramos :

Keep the 950. They perform on par.

Elliot Ramos :

anything less then a rx 570 is not an actual upgrade worth your time

Does the FreeSync on a low budget card like the RX 560 isn't good? The IPS LG23MP68VQ has a 40-75Hz FreeSync Range.

Elliot Ramos :

It's not that Freesync isn't good on lower end cards. It's that you would be buying a new GPU with about the same level of performance as your current GPU. If you are going to spend money on new hardware you want it to be a noticeable improvement from your current hardware.

I would either get a 570 or stay put with your current GPU and try to tweak the settings a little bit. The other thing to keep in mind is that PUBG does not run great without the right mix of settings on any hardware. With my i5 and 1070 I have found the shadow quality settings to make the biggest difference for me. With high shadows I get dips for 30 FPS at 1440p but with medium shadows I'm typically in the 70-100 FPS range.

What do I need to upgrade first? Should I save up and wait for the gpu prices to dip?

Elliot Ramos :

if you have money now,invest in a better cpu and wait for gpu prices to come down
