GPU Advice

Yeah I do game at 1080p. I use dual monitors but only when working as I disable the second display when I game.

The main reason for the upgrade is to play the dog fighting module of star citizen at the end of the month.
 
I must admit I was cheap with my PSU its an alpine 600w JSP-600P12N (not 700) .


I forgot to mention my Motherboard is an Asus P8 P67 Pro.
 
Thanks everyone I will get my PSU upgraded first as I don't like the idea of my machine going pop under load and then look at a card.

I could be tempted by the 290 B grade but CS have told me they can't guarantee a manufacturer warranty on it.

I'm guessing no one is a fan of the GTX 760 OC edition?

any recommendations on a <£100 psu?
 
Thanks all, I have just ordered this. Had to do it by phone in the end as I had some issue with the verification process.

Thanks for all your help.
 
All installed now.

I ran the bench mark on 1080p on Ultra setting with unlimited video memory selected.

Very happy with this card my 560gtx would struggle on the benchmark.

I've just tried it again with with 16x Anisotropic set and also enabled Vegetation Alpha and enable the depth of field to high. After changing these 3 it dropped to 42.9 FPS.

Erm I own the game but no point me putting my fps up as I game at 1440p and have a GTX780!

pdhenin - These are optional extras in the game and only turn on when you want them too, there are a few others that you manually have to turn on too!

Every days a school day :)

tbh I'm really happy with the card, glad that I can play the game without the constat Video memory low warning on every loading screen.
