1GB GTX 560 Ti for max settings??? TF2/CS:GO

[KHALIK]

1GB EVGA GTX 560 Ti - If purchased.

Will I be able to play on max settings, 1920x1080 resolution for;

Team Fortress 2
CS:GO


I want to spend as little as possible, needed for two PC's.

 

[almighty15]

Depends on how much you're paying for the ti?

Maybe get a 2Gb 7850?

 

[KHALIK]

Brand new £68.

 

[almighty15]

Not worth it.... Put the extra and get a newer card with more memory.... More performance and less power draw

 

[Gregster]

It will play those 2 games at max settings and £68 isn't a bad price for a new card.

 

[KHALIK]

Money is tight, I need to buy it for two PC.

Can I play on maximum setting on Team Fortress 2 and CS:GO ?



EDIT: Gregster, do you have a 1GB 560 Ti?

 

[almighty15]

It will play those 2 games at max settings and £68 isn't a bad price for a new card.

It's about equal to a 7790 by using the anandtech bench13 thingy.

And they can be found for the same price or slightly more.... More RAM, less power and heat... Smaller card too...

Remember the money is tight, I need to purchase for two computers.

It will only be used for Team Fortress 2 and CS:GO, nothing else.

I used want to play on maximum settings for those two games.

I had the 1GB 560Ti a couple of years ago and those games were more than handled with that card

 

[KHALIK]

So it will play on maximum settings, at 1920x1080 without any problems for these two games.

£68 is a good price for a new card 560 Ti.

My processors are Q9550.

Team Fortress 2 (the more demanding game of the 2 you listed) runs at an average of 122 fps on a 5870.

Now when we compare the 5870 1GB to the 560Ti 1GB, it stacks up like this.

As you can see, both are fairly similar and you should expect around the 120fps average mark on TF2.

It can handle it, but I'd look at second hand market if really going 560 ti route. It's not worth £68, and isn't far off the cost of a slightly better second hand 660TI.

Yeah, I'd try and aim for something a little better if your going second hand.

As for maximum settings, it depends what fps you're expecting. My monitor's native resolution is 1200p, and my 7970 is the first card I've had that can run CS:S (I don't really play GO) with maximum settings and with the frames I desire. Some people won't need a high end card to get the fps they want, so like I say, it does depend what performance you need.
