Looking for ultra wide 3440x1440 benchmarks

Each of the gaming bench threads here provide a 3440x1440 section although I imagine there's not that many results in them, I'm also considering a move to that res so if you find any useful sites/reviews put some links here please, I'll do the same.

Which gfx card, 1080?
4k and UW;

Few more out there too, I checked a couple when I was pondering the switch from a Ti

Posted some benchmarks a while back of 1080 and Titan X in a few games. so hope this provides some information. Most games are Ultra / highest, so notch a few settings down and a single 1080 is happy with a 3440 x 1440 panel.
Titan X Settings
Stock Settings - 1316 Mhz core / 7012 Memory throughout tests
Overclock Setting - 1474 Mhz core / 8020 Memory throughout tests
1080
Stock Settings - 1848 Mhz core / 10012 Memory throughout tests
Overclock Setting - 2101 Mhz core / 11030 Memory throughout tests
All tests were at 3440 x 1440. Scores below are average fps with Min / Max in brackets, though for some tests the Max / Min are pretty crap representations.

Go 1070 rather than the Ti imo. Go forward, not back 
Reason why I also included the 980ti was I hoping secondhand ones will drop to less then £250 in a few weeks time with seeing the new prices on them dropping like a stone...Go 1070 rather than the Ti imo. Go forward, not back
But then again the cheapest brand new GTX 1070 is around £300 ex vat (I no pay VAT)

I'd rather have driver support 
I Never really had a problem with driver support for older NVidia GPU'sI'd rather have driver support
There latest 07 june 16 drivers also support my over 5 year old GTX 580's
But Had this problem with motherboards
(Looking at you Asrock )

I guess hard to know where all the benchmarkers tested as fps can drastically change in the game from location to location. Mine was taken around Hierarch square with all settings maxed which will hurt the fps and make figures look closer then they may be in different locations.
Also and most importantly, most reviews I have seen for the Titan X leave it with the stock settings in which it normally throttles (though so does the FE to a lesser extent) mine was the SC and boosting to a stable 1316 as the fan profile was preventing throttling. Most reviews I see with the Titan X in will always be throttling petty much to base clock levels of 1000 mhz as they usually leave the stock fan profile on it.

Come to think of it, most benchmarks compare the 980 Ti to the 1080, but the Titan X has a sizeable increase in performance in some games over the 980 Ti, which could explain the results.
So how do you think a single 1080 performs at 3440x1440 overall? It looks like you can expect 70-80 FPS average in most AAA games with ultra settings + reduced anti-aliasing.

I have a 980ti and x34, it's a good combination and the card copes well. You have to turn a few options down in some games, but nothing to drastic. I imagine that the 1080 is great at that resolution. Tempted to get one myself, but I think I'm going to wait a while as I'm not really struggling with anything atm.
Agree with Wuckeds assessment, similarly a single 1080 does a cracking job to be honest. Notch down the crazy settings that tank fps for little visual gain such as maxed hairworks in Witcher 3 and your golden. Really you can keep pretty much most the eye candy and nice balance of fps with these cards.

Interesting. I own a single TX and an x34 predator ultra wide monitor and I was looking at selling the TX to get a1080 but I think I will try and pick up a second TX for Sli instead. Less money than a 1080 and much bigger increase in performance
I wonder if any of those 1080 results are CPU bottlenecked. Maybe try adding another 2x anti aliasing to rule that out. But maybe they are not anyway, although some of the 1080 results might be limited by CPU. You have a very nice CPU, but the problem is a lot of games do not use it properly, hopefully that will improve with DX12.

I have a 980Ti and PG348Q... and I'm hella tempted to get the 1080! I love the fact my Ti can do the job well with most settings turned on... and having GSync also really does help loads for the times fps dips somewhat... but!!!! AArggghh!
I do not believe its CPU limited rather just the nature of the settings I used and resolution. Most of the benchmarks I did already turned on levels of AA, such as witcher 3, Metro Last light (had x 16!) and so on. So they are really GPU bound results.The main point of my testing was really was to fully load the GPU's to provide a solid Titan X to 1080 comparison.
I guess a good example is just a small test I did. Witcher 3 absolutely maxed so AA on also same location different angle averaged 60 fps.
Do something as simple as turn off Nvidia Hair works and leave everything else maxed, averaged 72 fps.
Leave hair works off still and notch down the light shafts from HBAO+ to SSAO and again the fps jump to an average of 76 fps with everything else maxed so two minor tweaks and a gain of 15 fps!
Similar story on the other results, notch down a few settings that can and do tank the fps and you see a drastic improvement for minimal visual loss.
