And people say a 980Ti is overkill for 1080p

It is.

It sits at 50% usage most of the time. People shouldn't be spending £550 for a GPU to play this at 1080p just because WB can't optimise it properly.

dno my 980ti would drop to 50 fps pretty frequently with everything max'd witcher 3 also its nice because you stay pretty "future proof" at 1080p imo, 970 cant max a lot of games now days at stay 60fps + which is what i pref

Fair comment, Witcher 3 can use the Ti and for performance reasons.

IMO the 980 is the perfect card for 1080, particularly when picked up 2nd hand.

970 at 1080p. I'm maxing out the Witcher 3 on my 970 at 1200p. (And yes it is more than playable despite not hitting 60fps)

Not hitting 60 FPS is fine if you don't use v-sync. Eliminating tearing comes before all else for me.

WB saying it should be ready at the end of October.

It's been running fine for me since the last update.

And me, but I wonder if they are doing anything about the excessive vram usage

It's much better, but there's still no multi GPU support, and as mentioned above VRAM utilisation is somewhat odd.

Dirk Diggler · 2 Oct 2015 at 11:53

Yes, fair points and hopefully the 90fps cap is lifted too.

evsknight · 2 Oct 2015 at 12:16

I've fired this up recently after the last patch update and it feels like the FPS has tripled.
I only played an hour prior to the patch and it was very pretty but ran like a bag of spanners. Post patch it's now very playable and great fun. I'm running a 980Ti just for reference.

Can you max it out and maintain a constant 60FPS (with a good overclock on the gpu?)

opethdisciple · 2 Oct 2015 at 12:46

This has just been posted.

Finally back on sale (and patched) by the end of Oct.

I'm not touching it until then.

At 1440p with everything on/high except aniso @ 4x and max FPS at 90 - it sits there most of the time or close to.
Checking my fps graph in afterburner shows dips to 69/70fps every now and again but most of the time it's at 89/90

Michaeljcox24 · 2 Oct 2015 at 13:12

Max vram usage?

5.2

I will tell you what this game needs....

ANTIALIASING

Even running at 4k DSR it still has jaggies on my TV

I've not seen it hit 5 yet
